The 2018 Kia Soul and 2018 Mazda CX-3 are very evenly matched, and each has something different to offer drivers. If you need better fuel efficiency for your travels, you might be inclined to go for the 2018 CX-9, but for bolder styling cues, greater interior volume and higher tech innovation inside, there aren't many options better than the 2018 Soul. With a Rear-Camera Display, Harmon Kardon® audio system, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, the 2018 Soul does a much better job of keeping you connected and in control of both your navigation and entertainment options on board. Plus, thanks to Kia Drive Wise, the Soul can offer greater peace of mind for you than the CX-3 is able to. This is due to a wealth of driver assistance features, including:
- Autonomous Emergency Braking
- Forward Collision Warning System
- Lane Departure Warning System
- Smart Cruise Control
- Blind Spot Detection
- Rear Cross Traffic Alert
- Many more!
