What’s the best year for a used Kia Soul?
I’ve always admired the Kia Soul and now I think I’d like to buy one. But a new car isn’t in my budget. So, what’s the best year for a used Kia Soul?
Mary Alice Morris · Updated on
Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
The
Kia Soul
is such a reliable and trusted brand that you’d probably be good buying any used model year. That said, some years have had more complaints than others, and a few models suffered engine failure. The best years for a used Kia Soul that would avoid most of these issues include the following:
- 2011
- 2017
- 2018
- 2019
- 2020
There are just more registered complaints to the
National Highway Transportation Safety Administration
for the other model years from 2008 to 2010 and 2012 to 2016. But the brand is still one of the most reliable and highly rated for its class. As with shopping for any used car, make sure to do your research on the vehicle’s history and ask any relevant questions before you buy. You’ll also want to research the cost of
car insurance
, as your quotes could vary greatly depending on the model year.View full answer
