Hello
Actually it is totally true. This car is becoming famous quickly in Jordan these days. All of the imported cars are from USA, made in Korea.
I bought a soul 2015 EV+ before 45 days.
Their price here is higher because of the shipping cost. Also the government adds 1300 $ as registration and import fees. So it is not totally zero taxes. But compared to Hybrid cars, where you have to pay around 6,000 $ for a car with the same value, the taxes and fees are far lower. While for gas cars, you can expect 13,000 $ as taxes and import fees.
But I can tell that the weather here is optimal for this car. I can see that the range I experience is higher than the one reported by the users in USA. On average I can travel 180 - 200 km (110 - 125 miles) in one charge. I guess weather and the topography of my city are the main reasons to get such a range.
I drove it in one day for 157 km (98 miles), and still had 40 km (25 Miles) range. However, the car screen has never shown more than 103 miles when full.
I don't know about the warranty terms, but the dealer tells nothing about that. I called Kia Jordan one time about something, and they did not say it is not under thier warranty. But I never visited them so far.
