Kia plans EV with version of Soul
MINNEAPOLIS — Kia will introduce an EV version of its 2014 boxy Soul subcompact next year.
The Soul EV will be Kia’s first U.S. vehicle to be powered solely by an electric powertrain. The brand’s only electrified vehicle sold in the United States so far has been the Optima Hybrid mid-sized sedan.
Kia says it’s staying mum on the electric car’s driving range, battery size, price and other details to be revealed later at a U.S. auto show.
Michael Sprague, executive vice president of marketing for Kia Motors America, announced the plan to sell the Soul EV in the United States at a media event here Tuesday.
In a statement Tuesday afternoon, Kia said the Soul EV would have distinctive styling to distinguish it from gasoline-powered Souls and to improve aerodynamics.
