The Kia Soul Diva has been created as a fashion accessory for a style-conscious young-at-heart woman who regards her car to be as important as her entire outfit.
The Soul Diva is like a supermodel with an aura of glamour, a bit flashy but playful and fun!
“I never thought I would be putting so much gold on a car, but the SOUL Diva is the right type of car for this kind of treatment,” comments Guillaume.
The exterior sparkles with metallic white paint in bright contrast to elements that would normally be in body-colour or chrome — such as door handles and wheel trims – accented in gold.
Kia have applied an “overlapping circle motif” that echoes current handbag designs to the front grilles, panoramic glass roof and seats.
The Soul Diva’s bumper treatment is more refined than the other concept cars, but the gold roof rails and large, 19-inch diameter gold-finished alloy wheels with their unique 225/45 tyres and overlapping circles tread pattern, are certainly not self-effacing.
Inside, this funky boxy car presents a black, white and gold world of leather and glitter – all beautifully and evenly lit by the full-length tinted glass panoramic roof.
The sweeping dashboard is covered in white leather and the gold-trimmed centre stack and outer air vents appear to lounge across the surface.
A special two-spoke steering wheel is trimmed in white leather as befits its fashion accessory role.
Turning the cabin into a stylish lounge, the seats are upholstered in glossy black imitation leather using ‘quilted’ stitching and trimmed to look like sofas.
Even the cabin floor presents a tactile treat, with black long-pile ‘Pony-hide’ carpet that simply begs to be stroked.

The Kia Soul Diva is a job well done by Kia. I love the clean interior and the wheels are cool. Great looking crossover.
Diva looks just as good as other two concepts. I’m sure girls would love it if it was on sale.
There are also two things I don’t like about it, and that’s the use of gold on wheels and interior and the seat fabrics.
Did you notice the steering wheel beeing different than in Burner and Searcher!? Here is the two-spoke steering wheel, similar to that one used in Mini, while Burner and Searcher both have more sporty looking three-spoke steering wheel.
Yes I’v noticed some differences in all three SOULs designs, even the light positions in front.
Is the Kia Soul going to come in an automatic transmission only or will Kia also offer a manual? I’m thinking I read auto tranny only.
There will also be manual transmission avaliable on production Soul. I’d like to know if we get the 4 or 5 speed automatic and 5 or 6 speed manual. I’d like to see the 6speed manual or 5 speed automatic at least as an option.
A 6-speed manual would be awesome for this car but not a deal-breaker by any means if Kia didn’t offer it. It would be a great rig with a 5-speed manual, too!
I still love this gold-specked Kia Soul the most! It’s hotter than a Kevin Durant jump shot to win the game for the Seattle Supersonics in the last second!
Me being a girly, girly would 100% be buying the DIVA !!! Hopefully this model will go ahead………
Well, then, we’ve all decided the Kia Soul Diva is a GO then!
i saw this at the british motor show and my husband couldnt get me away. no 1 fan!
fell in love with it as soon as i saw it just my style can’t wait till they sell them ill be the first in line :)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111
i have not a drivers license yet, but i´m already a fan of this car….
Mum , Dad ??? buy me this car , please…. !
as a kia driver we owned together a shuma . i then bought a rio and exchanged it for a cerato lx although i like the cerato i see my other car every day as it drives past. the colour was an unusual shade of greeny yellow cant remember the technical term . My husband now drives the cerato hatch back and mines is the saloon. My next car was to be the proceed and he wanted the sporty ceed or the magentis. After seeing the new soul at first glance i thought what an ugly car but the more i looked the more i fell in love especially with the diva i am hooked. the only thing they keep saying it is aimed at the younger market well i am a young 49 yr old and this must be my change of life car lol cant wait to go to my local dealer on thursday to the show and see the interior up close it will be like sitting in a designer handbag and i also like the tatooed version
Marion: Kia says the SOul is meant for young and young at heart! 🙂
I would like to know how much this would cost!!!!! I want to BUY!!!!!!
Generally when one wants to buy a car, they go to a dealership.
beautiful car. I want to buy it too. I’ve got Kia Carens but it is more beautiful.
I already ordered this one, but i have to wait around 3 moths:) I am so exited:)))))))))
