Kia Soul

Kia launched its new Soul model at the 2008 Paris Motor Show. This small car gets its basic shape from the Scion xB, with four upright seating positions. Power comes from a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine producing 125 horsepower. Europeans also get a choice of a 1.6-liter four-cylinder diesel engine. Performance isn't spectacular, with a 10.4 second time to 62 mph, but at 42 mpg fuel economy, you will save lots of money.
