19 · OAKVILLE BEAVER Wednesday, August 12, 2009 2010 Kia Soul adds to new hipper image Continued from Page 17 burner edition with its red/black colour combination. One thing missing is a passenger centre armrest, which my wife pointed out on our trip north. The driver gets a padded, flip-down armrest, however. Heated seats are standard on all trim levels, because as Kia says, "this is Canada, baby!" The dashboard features a three-gauge instrument cluster, LCD illumination and a floating centre stack with access to the AM/FM/CD/MP3 audio system with Sirius satellite radio capability. Among the standard features are air conditioning, tilt steering wheel, power windows/door locks, and external temperature display The 1.6L Soul comes only with the fivespeed manual and basic black interior. On the 2.0L, entry level is the 2u model, priced at $17,995 ($19,195 with automatic) and featuring the Soul logo in the patterned cloth seats. The 4u model adds 18-inch alloys, power tilt and sliding sunroof, premium audio system and the sport-tuned suspension for $19,995 ($21,195 for automatic). The Retro model gives a beige/black interior combination at $20,695 ($21,895 for automatic), while the 4u Burner is priced at $20,995 ($22,195 for automatic). On the safety front, Kia doesn't scrimp on the Soul as six airbags are standard with front, side and side airbags on all trim levels plus front-seat anti-whiplash headrests. ABS, traction control and electronic stability control come on all models except the entry-level 1.6L. Of course, Kia's standard five year, 100,000 km comprehensive warranty that covers virtually everything on the vehicle comes with the Soul along with the peace of mind of five years of roadside assistance throughout North America. One neat feature that will be a hit with the younger set are the LED mood speakers in the 4u model that pulse to the beat of the music or add mood lighting to the cabin. Not my style, but sure to appeal to the "hipper" crowd. A number of dealer installed extras are offered with to allow you to express your `Soul' with features such as a rear spoiler, front skirt package, side and rear skirts, 18-inch alloy wheels and the headlight "eyeline" that adds a style accent to the headlight design. A total of 60 accessories are available, including chrome accents, body decals and upgraded gear-shift knob. It all adds up to an exciting new package that Kia hopes will be the start of a whole new, hipper image for the Korean M I S S I S S AU G A H A M I LTO N IF YOU'RE CONSIDERING BUYING A VEHICLE STOP UNTIL YOU SEE OUR FULL COLOUR INSERT COMING OUT THIS FRIDAY AUGUST 14TH IN THIS PAPER ! 8 PAGE T I M E S A OR VISIT WWW.AUTOPRICECANADA.COM FOR 250 VEHICLES IN STOCK !
