Owned new generation Kia Rio, 2006....great compact car. Bought a 2011 Sorento, brilliant CUV. Just bought a 2012 Soul plus....suprising performance especially off the mark and getting onto the highway...even on uphill entry ramps. The Soul can appeal to younger and older buyers alike, style and function in the same package. I had two Nissans in the past, both good cars but the sheet metal is rolled really thin...you can cut it with a good pair of kitchen scissor, I did that to a Sunny once!
To be honest they are both great looking cars! I am naturally drawn to Japanese styling though so the Nissan looks great, but I am really starting to like these Kia Souls as of late.
Kia is American? That's weird I thought they were from Korea! lol ignorant haha yeah right pal. Anyways they both suck I'll take my xb2 over them any day.
ok seriously kias are pieces of shit and seriously all of u get a life the only reason why u like the kia is cuz its american.......people r so ignorant
Nissan nailed it? In terms of bringing a kei car here, ok - but otherwise, not so much. For one, the headliner is cool, but can you get a sunroof? No. Heated leather? No. Also, a swing out rear gate......really? Plus no flat load floor. The 2012 Kia also has a 40 hp advantage while getting 5mpg more. (The 2010 had 20 more hp and 2 mpg more). Apple products are supposed to offer more features and function. You guys got it backwards.
i chose the kia, another thing the soul has nice,visible tailights. If you get in a rear fender bender in the cube, you have to get new tailights. pluse the soul is worth the money.
Nissan is not even in the top ten on reliability at the Consumers report website and KIA is in there. I love my 2011 KIA Soul 4U and thats how i ended up buying my KIA Soul........ Price, Reliability, Style, Comfort ride, safety, and quality is what i saw on KIA Soul.
I crack up every time I see someone driving any of these piles of garbage in traffic. It doesn't matter what it is, a Kia Soul (Soulless), Scion XB (Toaster), Nissan Cube, whatever. There's a sucker born every minute. Might at well tattoo a giant "L" on your forehead.

MUCH BETTER INTERIOR??? DUUDE! I looked over the Cube. The interior looks worse than some rental Cobalts I've driven. At least the base Soul has a pretty decent interior--though I'll grant you this--Kia's materials suck big time. We have a Rondo--trust, I know this. But the Nissan Cube S?? Fuggedaboutit. I'd go either Scion XB or Kia Soul for my money
Lol that would be quite a deal. My current plan to get one is wait 5 to 10 years until it is worth as much as a minivan and then pick one up. Trading a 15k Fit would be so much easier though. hmmm.....
For what it is worth, a lot of people (myself included) don't think those box cars are too good in terms of style or "coolness". Good choice picking a fit instead :)
Check out the Civic, Carolla, Fiesta, and Cooper if you want a good small car. All very efficient, reliable, safe, and not too expensive. Good luck with your search!!!
Both are hideous, underpowered, overpriced, toys that should get way better mileage. They built them for young people, who rejected them and then the only people who ended up buying them were middle aged people who are trying way too hard to be "hip". Having said that, the Kia is much better than the Scion or Nissan but all that is really saying is that it is the best of a group of gay piles of trash.
I'm sorry you feel that way, but that's the beauty of freedom of choice. I drive a 2010 Kia Soul, and love it. It's anything but overpriced seeing as for all the features I have, it's 2-3 grand cheaper then the closest competitor. I get 30MPG and am fine about that. Aren't all cars just big toys that require more responsibility and are built for adults? I'm a college student and bought mine before the start of Fall 09' so stop generalizing and pulling your facts out of air.
The most one-sided review I've ever seen - hardly a review at all, more like an ass-kissing for Nissan. I drive a Kia Soul and have NO complaints at all (other than that I can't bring it in the house with me at the end of the day!) - the Nissan Cube looks like a Japanese abortion and I always laugh and point when I pass one on the road.
LOL, i'd rather take the Nissan cube, cuz it's built stronger. Also nissan recently updated their warranty on the tranny. it's now 200,000 10 year warranty on their CVT transmissions. also if u look into crash tests by kia, they have a history of building not very strong cars.. kia stands for (Killed In Action).. have fun with ur kia soul!
but you're right, Kia fans are the ones who tend to search for Kia videos on youtube. but remember that the''fan'' of kia could be a marketing strategy of the company.
because they're the best cars available in the market that give good value for low price and + they have great safety ratings (check euroncapdotcom) and they really do look great and well designed :) that what makes other people jealous and post hating comments :) and if they weren't good u won't see thumbs up for them and thumbs down for hating and nonsense comments:)
why ppl LOVE kia? simply, because they don't love the classic stereotyped american vehicles as ford, GMC vehicles and the rest of fuel sucker cars, any question???
I own a Soul and it rocks hard..and fyi..KIA is the 4th largest manufacturer in the world..Nissan is 7th on the list.
The Soul is 3 grand cheaper, with more HP, better waranty, more gadgets, better utility, better handling (ex Audi guy designed it), best braking in segment. And I don't care what you losers say, it looks awesome...people ask me about it all the time....and it's all good!
@altima1fuga2 WRONG...as per wiki The Hyundai Kia Automotive Group (Korean: 현대자동차 그룹) is South Korea's largest automobile manufacturer, the second largest automaker in Asia after Toyota and the world's FOURTH largest automaker after Toyota, GM, and Volkswagen as of the end of 2010.[1]
What's your source? Besides, I'm talking about the Kia Automotive Brand ALONE. Not the Hyundai-Kia Corporation. And the Nissan Cube is much more unique in styling, it's what makes the cube different to others. The Kia Soul looks nothing more than an ordinary city car.
Wrong! The Cube has won countless awards in Japan, and the IIHS safety award in the US.
And OK, no big deal. You like the Soul, I like the Cube. There's no reason to insult one another, it depends on different people. Nothing gives you the right to say that the Cube is a 'frikin cube'.
my god this car is so ugly. I would rather drive a stupid fucken scion over this thing. I have to drive the cube for work ever now and then. yea it rides nice and all that but it has absolutely no passing power at all and it feels like it can tip over in some turns. Not to mention that I wish the windows were tinted because I feel so embarrassed in it.
Nissan is my favorite make of car. But i wouldn't drive a Cube because, to tell you the truth... i think they look awful. I get a kick out of seeing them on the road tho. The Soul is a pretty ugly car too. But i hardly pay any attention to Kia.
but American cars were in the country for over one hundred years and euro is also cool to beating the Japanese may i remind you that the American and European cars are faster and better looking.
the soul is sooo much better!! but i would go for the fiat 500, or the alfa romeo mito, or the new lancia ypsilon though. italian small cars are kicking ass lately!!
what the fuck ..that cube is fricken ugly..it looks like a cartoon come to life...it figures only from japan ...they should of left it there ..what are the japs thinking with this ....just what we need..more ugly shit from japan ...i dont know what is worse..this thing or the scion ...thank god i am a proud american male and all i will buy, drive, or abuse is american iron...i wish they kept this stupid. ugly ass pukemobile in japan were it belongs
Wow, he had absolutely no reasons to justify liking the cube better. The interior AND the exterior are hideous! The kia soul is actually a pretty good blend between being too cookie cutter and too out there (like the nissan cube). Oh yeah, and that PC vs. MAC thing was stupid, and as everyone else said very bias
My shit that I took looked better then the Cube. I will claim it here and now, it is the ugliest car ever created. I'd buy a Pinto before I'd buy that POS!
..."it just doesn't look like its trying too hard." - mac guy
First.... the pc vs. mac comparison is an abomination to the review of automobiles. Especially when they call each other mac and pc! ...wow
Whoever created this video is biased, had terrible reasons for why the nissan cube is anything great whatsoever, and all they have done is make assumptions about the kia soul. this video has no worth.
"It just doesn't look like it's trying too hard."
You're freaking kidding me, right? The Cube IS trying too hard, and failing miserably. It looks like it popped right out of a Japanese anime about a circus or something.
I agree. Cube is ugliest thing on the road. Seriously, who designs a Mini SUV with a swing open door anymore? It's gutless too. If I had to pick between the 2... Kia would get my money.
Owned new generation Kia Rio, 2006....great compact car. Bought a 2011 Sorento, brilliant CUV.
