Kia Red Rock Special Edition Soul – one more for the US

Kia has unveiled the seventh in a series of unique SE versions that has come about with its Soul five-door hatch. This one, called the Red Rock Special Edition Soul, unsurprisingly derives its inspiration from the rock formations found in the North American Southwest.

The production model includes a number of features designed to set it apart from other Soul variants, led by a lustrous exterior shade called Canyon. Other RRSE exterior features include a high-gloss black front fascia and mirror housings, while the interior gets exclusive black leather trim and brown cloth seats.

The edition began life as a concept, premiering at last year’s New York auto show. Following its debut, the Red Rock Special Edition concept toured the US, and with enough favourable nods has made the journey from concept to reality. Proof then that there’s more than one way to stir your Soul.

      Maybe you should go and read some US automotive publications, where they have explained why they devised the Soul into multiple limited variants, with a minimal, impact-less price increase. This is a youth vehicle, unlike a Vios, which is designed more as an A-to-B car.

      Enough bashing yet?
