The transmission is automatic 4-speed with overdrive, or optionally 5-speed manual. Fuel economy rates as 24 mpg city and 30 mpg highway.

More Features For Concord Kia Drivers

The 2011 Kia Soul uses top-of-the-line safety features to both prevent accidents and to minimize damage should accidents occur. The 2011 Soul earned the much-coveted Top Safety Pick award from the Insurance Institute For Highway Safety (as did the 2010 version.) Like all Top Safety Picks, the Soul comes standard with electronic stability control on all trims. With Brake Assist, the stability system monitors the driving situation and applies more brake pressure in emergency situations such as a sudden stop or sharp turn.

That’s in addition to standard 4-wheel anti-lock brakes on all trims. The Soul is standard equipped with front and passenger airbags, full-length side curtain airbags, and active head supports to minimize the effects the whiplash. The back seats include lower anchors and tethering for child safety seats.

The 2011 Kia Soul doesn’t skip out on comfort features. The control panel has satellite radio, mp3 capabilities and a USB jack to sync with an mp3 player. The sound system uses 4 to 8 speakers, depending on the trim level. It is also Bluetooth enabled, allowing the driver to make hands-free calls with any Bluetooth-compatible cell phone. Customers who opt for the premium package can get heated leather seats, a feature normally only seen in expensive luxury vehicles.
