Where do I find the Kia Soul odometer and trip computer?
I just bought a used Kia Soul recently, and my mom asked me to check the odometer and the trip computer, but I don’t know what these are or what they do. Can you help me find the Kia Soul odometer and the trip computer?

Here’s what a
Kia Soul
! odometer and trip computer do and how to find them. Your car’s odometer is found on the dashboard. It’s simply a readout of the total number of miles your car has been driven so far, since it first rolled off the assembly line. This is important information to know, and will be used for vehicle maintenance, registration,
car insurance
, and lots more.The trip computer is similar to the odometer, but it measures how many miles you’ve driven since last resetting the trip computer. This is useful for keeping track of:
- How far your daily commute to and from work is
- How much distance you cover on a road trip
- How long you’ve gone since your last oil change
You can’t reset the odometer, but you can reset the trip computer. This will vary based on the year and trim level of your Kia Soul, so you’ll want to consult your owner’s manual to learn how to make these changes.
Chances are you either have a trip button on your dashboard near your steering wheel, or can navigate to the “Drive Info” screen on your dashboard using the menu buttons on your steering wheel. Press and hold the down button while looking at that screen to reset it’s information.
