cbg72273 Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 We have a Kia Soul Base AT. From talking to Kia Soul forum members in England, Kia has no problem installing a hitch. Here in the states Kia says you can't and hint that doing so would void the warranty. Anyone have any experience towing with a Soul? I'm waiting for a response to a post about towing a small TT on the Kia Soul forum. https://youtu.be/Flyxlk-csj0 Chris & Brenda Two Peas In A Pod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yarome Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 Anyone have any experience towing with a Soul? You could always check your certification label to see if it's even feasible. I know they tout a 2000# tow capacity, but I wonder what the axle ratings and such look like. You would have to do the same calculations as any other tow vehicle, but I think you would be really hard pressed to find any trailer that would fall under 2000# fully loaded. Maybe something like a Tear Drop or similar might be doable. Did you, perhaps, mean "towing a Soul" rather than "towing with a Soul"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remoandiris Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 Did you, perhaps, mean "towing a Soul" rather than "towing with a Soul"? No, they mean towing a small TT with a Soul. Look at the last sentence in the OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenacres Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 I have seen receiver hitch's on them but only to haul bicycles. Thanks for the funny video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryofWV Posted October 1, 2015 Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 I pulled my side x side with my wife's 2013 Kia Soul+, auto trans. It weights about 800 lbs plus the trailer. It pulled it pretty good. I tried pulling it with my 2012 base model with standard trans. It pulled it, but I was afraid of damaging the clutch in it.

whj469 Posted October 1, 2015 Report Share Posted October 1, 2015 Two weeks ago I bought a 2015 Kia Soul for my grandkid who is a junior at Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, TX. I don't think that I would want to tow anything with that auto. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
