Kia Soul Hybrid coming up!

Last Updated:


Kia will be showing a concept verion of the Soul Hybrid at the Paris auto show.
It uses a 122hp gas engine, while the electric motor adds another 20.
The whole thing averaging 48 MPH (US).

I can’t wait to see this.

Wasn’t Toyota one of the pioneers in Hybrid technology? What happened to a Scion Hybrid???
How come Kia got the idea first?

  1. do you mean 48 MPH or MPG?

    You’ll probably have changed it by the time you read this.

    Oh well.

    Can’t wait for that Soul!

  2. Better than the bland Cobalt, but cheap-looking plastic garbage on the “C” pillar nearly kills the style.

    Big question is the price because over-pricing has caused the Saturn Astra to fail in the U.S.

  3. I think it is more likely lack of awareness due to no advertising than price that is killing the Astra here. That and no Big Gulp-size cupholders for fat slobs.
