The market of the Korean car manufacturer addressed only electric modification of the KIA Soul compact-cross in Great Britain.

Before the upgrade, Soul EV was sold in a single Maxx configuration. Now there is a base version Urban and the flagship Explore.

Externally, the updated electric crossover can be distinguished from its predecessor by a new design of the brand logo. There is no more «Soul» badge on a back of the car, but there is a new logo of Kia.

The base model is equipped with a 39.2 kWh battery, which allows driving 275 kilometers on one charge.

This crossover is equipped with a 134-horsepower electric motor. On acceleration to a hundred miles Urban spends 9.9 seconds, and the maximum speed of the car reaches 156 km/h.

The 201-horsepower version Explore should become the most popular, says the automaker.

Cruising range is up to 450 km/h thanks to a 64 kWh battery. Acceleration to a hundred is 7.9 seconds, maximum speed — 167 km/h.

The base crossover is priced at a minimum of £32,795 (2 million rubles). It is entitled to a virtual dashboard and modern multimedia.

The Explore version will cost at least £38,995 (2.38 million rubles). It has replaced the former Maxx package.
