2017 has been a banner year for Kia vehicles, and for these two in particular: The 2017 Kia Soul and the 2017 Kia Niro. The 2017 Soul saw enhancements to the design of its front grille and received an all-new engine option for its top-line Exclaim (!) trim, while the 2017 Niro made its global debut and is already dazzling drivers with its best-in-class fuel economy.
While both vehicles are multi-purpose / crossover vehicles, the 2017 Kia Soul comes with greater available horsepower and cargo room, with upwards of 201 HP in the Soul's Exclaim trim, thanks to its turbocharged engine. You also have an SUV-like 61.3 cubic feet of cargo room with the 2017 Soul. The 2017 Soul has a fun-seeking boxy design, while the 2017 Niro has a compact and sleek look that is superior to many of the competing - and more sedate - hybrids on the road. And if you're curious about color choices, the Soul has 10 available exterior color options to the Niro's seven.

Both of these are fun, stylish and affordable crossover vehicles, so it depends on what you prefer.
