Kia Soul
Kia has released the first official pictures of the new compact car, which will make a debut in Paris on October 2, 2008.
A smaller capacity 1.6-litre gasoline engine will be offered in most countries, alongside a 1.6-litre turbo diesel engine featuring a VGT. Both 1.6-liter engines are based on the same units used in the European market Cee’d, meaning that the gasoline engine should deliver around 122Hp and the diesel approximately 115Hp.
The Kia Soul that will be available exclusively as a five-door hatchback with front-wheel drive, has an overall length of 4,105 mm (161-in.), and a 2,550 mm (100.4-in.) wheelbase. Height is at 1,610 mm (64-in.) and width at 1,785mm (70.3-in.) (excluding door mirrors), meaning that overall, the Soul is a tad smaller than the Scion xB or for European buyers, its roughly the same size as the Nissan Note.
