They made a Soul EV for a few years before killing it. Huuuuge bummer.

I found one near me for $10k. She's ugly, like all Souls, but she's tempting.

The Niro ain't a bad replacement. Or the Hyundai Kona. But yeah. I agree that was a big mistake.

I'm pretty biased since I have both a Soul and a Kona sitting in my driveway, but I'd take electric of either once I actually own a house. I'm hesitant to get an EV before I can charge at home.

I'm just a hatchback fan. Small enough to be easy to drive and big enough to fit both of my Mastiffs.

Hatchbacks are the best. You can fit so much shit in the back. I moved some of my friends with my Mazda 3.

I had a Tiburon in college and dropping back seats left enough room to fit a twin mattress. 😎 We have a local drive-in theater still operating and backing that sucker in, popping the hatch and laying in a bed to watch movies was awesome. I had the upgraded sound system so there was a big ass subwoofer right next to my feet, too.

Hell, even my dream car, the '69 Fairlady Z, is a hatchback.
