Well folks, it's been a fun ride with you all over the last 5 years, but I'm officially no longer a Soul EV owner. :confused:

Had an unfortunate accident during my morning commute and rear-ended a poor fellow stopped in traffic on the highway. No one was hurt, we were both able to drive away, but insurance has written of my car as the cost of repairs was approximately the same as the vehicle's value.

I have replaced my soul with a 2021 Chevy Bolt Premier. It's about twice the EV that the old Soul was, 2.5x the range, 2x the HP, and 2x the price! :)
While the Bolt has its own charms I do miss driving my Soul. The reason I didn't consider a 2nd gen Soul EV (which on paper would have been perfect as well) is due to my negative experiences interacting with KIA dealers with my old car, and wanting to own a more mainstream EV that wasn't limited to a handful of thousands of units sold in N/A.

Anyway, I'm sure I'll check in here once in awhile anyway, but thought I'd say so long and thanks for all the help and community over the years.

Good that you are all right! I see this situation as "all the bad towards good". You have a stronger car now. Good luck!

I have long been looking for a cool and high-quality site for playing slot machines online, I found this site - https://slоtscity.ua/ru/game-hall , and this site is the best place where I played from all other sites, because it is on this site that you can play very easily and freely in the coolest slot machines online!
Sorry to hear about the accident, but glad everyone’s okay! Congrats on the Bolt Premier—it’s definitely a big upgrade in range and power. Totally get your reasons for moving on from the Soul EV, though it’s bittersweet saying goodbye. Wishing you many happy miles with the new ride!
