2018 Kia Soul vs. 2018 Mazda CX-3

The 2018 Soul is notably larger and more spacious on the inside than the CX-3. Space to move around and stretch out is a big reason why crossovers are so popular. The Soul also continues the reputation of affordability amongst Kia models. But don't incorrectly correlate the low prices with low quality. The Soul offers all kinds of entertainment and safety features that make it every bit as modern as any other in its class. SiriusXM satellite radio, traction control, and all-around airbags all help to integrate technology into the new Soul.
