Technology Features of the 2017 Kia Soul EV

At the Chris Auffenberg family of dealerships, we are just as passionate about conserving our environment as we are about providing our communities with quality vehicles and exceptional customer service. That’s why we’re going to talk about the 2017 Kia Soul EV. The Soul EV has some amazing technological tools and features that make it into one of the most eco and tech-friendly vehicles around.

Engine and Braking Features

The 2017 Kia Soul EV has been tuned to fit the modern world that we live in. With its smooth electric motor, and regenerative braking system, you’ll be able to notice the positive impact you’re having on the environment every time you drive it. Offering 109 horsepower, the uniquely designed motor of the 2017 Soul EV allows for swift acceleration and an exciting drive. Normally, when vehicles apply the brakes or go downhill the kinetic energy that gets built up is lost. With the 2017 Kia Soul EV’s regenerative braking system, every time you’re going downhill or you step on the brakes, your Soul EV charges itself which means you can go further between charges.
