Enjoy a quick TV spot that takes you on a ride with the all-new
Kia Soul! Already drawing praise, the Kia Soul is one of the
most highly anticipated cars to be released in the near future.

In addition to the Kia Soul launch, Kia is featuring some new
green concepts at the Paris Motor Show. Here is a video taken
about these four vehicles on display in line with Kias global
eco-friendly initiatives. Michael Choo gives us a sneak peek of
the ceed ISG, Soul and ceed hybrids, and the Sportage FCEV
directly from the Kia stand in Paris.

This particular Soul features a 1.6-liter gasoline engine mated to an electric motor that delivers an output of 15 kW and 105 Nm of torque. Power is driven
to the front wheels via Kia´s own CVT (continuously variable transmission) while the Soul Hybrid’s batteries are charged through regenerative braking. Kia
