Kelley Blue Book Tabs 2012 Kia Soul as Best Back-to-School Car

Online, August 24, 2012 (Newswire.com) - The 2012 Kia Soul recently topped a list of "10 Best Back-To-School Cars" compiled by Kelley Blue Book's website, KBB.com. Students looking to head back to class in the Soul can find it at local Kia dealers like Moritz Kia Fort Worth.

The 2012 Kia Soul was created to appeal to the younger driving set, and the recent Kelley Blue Book list of "10 Best Back-To-School Cars" has affirmed its place among contemporary drivers.

"The Soul being named to the top spot on the '10 Best Back-To-School Cars of 2012′ list by Kelley Blue Book's KBB.com shows just how relevant the Kia brand has become with the younger consumer," said Michael Sprague, executive vice president, marketing & communications, Kia Motors America. "This honor recognizes the Soul for a host of attributes ranging from innovative styling to smart personalization options to outstanding safety, all of which make it a favorite among students and their parents, alike."

Both the styling and sensibility of the fuel economy were noted in Kelley Blue Book's review of the 2012 Kia Soul. "With a low price tag, roomy interior and singular looks, the Kia Soul charms with a practical but youthful exuberance," asserted the editors of Kelley Blue Book's KBB.com. "And it gets even better for 2012, gaining direct injection technology and six-speed transmissions that yield bumps in power, responsiveness and fuel economy. Stir in tastefully refreshed exterior and interior bits, and the Soul convincingly grabs the top spot on our list of Best Back-to-School Cars for 2012."

Students and parents can visit a Fort Worth Kia dealership like Moritz Kia Fort Worth to take the 2012 Kia Soul for a test drive and to speak with expert sales personnel. Photos and information can also be viewed at the Moritz Kia Fort Worth website at http://moritzkiafw.com.
