HIGH POINT, N.C., July 17, 2017 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- To celebrate the arrival of the 2017 Kia Soul ! with its new turbocharged engine, Carolina Kia launched several buying resources, including two blog posts and a comparison research page. These pages are designed to provide prospective buyers with the information they are looking for during their car search.

For 2017, the Kia Soul saw a few interesting changes. Among them was the inclusion of a new turbocharged engine in the top trim. Carolina Kia investigated further in a blog post and pointed out that the 201-horsepower turbocharged engine may not be the most interesting thing about this particular drivetrain. In addition to a turbocharged engine, the Soul ! includes a double-clutch automatic transmission. Such a transmission is a rare feature outside of sports cars and exotics.

Recently, Carolina Kia put together a research comparison page that contrasted the 2017 Kia Soul and the 2017 Toyota RAV4. The inclusion of a turbocharged engine was one of the many details that had the Soul coming out on top of the RAV4. Other categories where the Soul won out included price, warranty and even passenger room.

To celebrate the first turbocharged Soul, Kia released a new addition to the company's lineup of hamster-starred Soul commercials. Since the commercial's debut, many have been wondering the name of the song featured in the background. Carolina Kia saw this as a fun blog topic to cap off the turbo Soul conversation while also using it as an opportunity to explore the hamster ad campaign in greater detail.
