Wisconsin drivers know how important it is to have a vehicle that can handle driving during our cold, snowy winters, and the 2025 Kia Soul is a great option to keep you safe and warm on your commutes. Read on to learn about all the comfort, safety, and performance features that make it an ideal choice for winter driving.
Why the 2025 Kia Soul Is Perfect for Your Winter Driving Commute
Stability and Traction Control
Every 2025 Soul is equipped with an anti-lock brake system (ABS), which uses electronic sensors at each hub to monitor speed and detect skidding wheels. If detected, the system modulates the force of the brakes to reduce skidding, prevent locking, and help you keep control of your vehicle. You’ll still need to practice safe driving habits, but the ABS feature is essential to help you navigate slippery roads.
The Vehicle Stability Management System (VSM) helps you control your steering direction and intervenes when necessary to provide further stabilization and assist you in returning your vehicle to its intended path. Electronic Stability Control works with the VSM, monitoring and assisting in the control of key functions by reducing engine power and braking individual wheels as appropriate. If your vehicle detects an imminent rollover, the Rollover Sensor can deploy the side airbags to help mitigate injuries.
Convenient Exterior Features
All 2025 Soul models come with heated rear glass to melt snow and ice and help prevent the rear window washer and wiper from freezing. A convenient timer automatically turns off the heating elements to prevent overheating. Power-adjustable side mirrors let you position your mirrors from inside the vehicle to help prevent frosty fingers, and higher trim levels include a heat function to ensure constant visibility.
Interior Cold-Weather Comfort
Remote keyless entry means you don’t have to take off your gloves or spend time fishing for your key fob to access your Soul’s interior. A Smart Key comes with all models above the base trim, allowing you to start your engine and pre-heat your car remotely with the Kia Access app. Dual front cupholders keep warm beverages within easy reach, and heated front seats are available in the top trim levels for full-body comfort.
The fully digital instrument cluster makes it easy to keep an eye on your fuel efficiency, remaining range, and other helpful information to prevent getting stranded in the cold.
