The Kia Soul (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/KiaSoul/) has another set of special-edition duds to wear in the UK. This time it's called the Soul Echo, latest in the Soul Originals line, following such others as the Tempest (http://www.autoblog.com/2009/11/03/kia-gives-uk-buyers-soul-tempest/), Burner (http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-kia-bears-its-souls/), Samba and Shaker. The Echo is offered in Clear White or Quartz Black Metallic, with stripes and accents that make them mirror images; e.g., the white Echo gets black alloys, the black Echo gets white alloys. Interior kit has been upgraded to black leather throughout, along with a beefier audio system; Bluetooth and iPod compatibility; and reversing sensors, in addition to a few other electro-gizmo add-ons. It's priced at £13,995 (http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert.cgi?Amount=13995&From=GBP&To=USD) on the road.
A little further down the food chain are Domino editions of the Kia (http://www.autoblog.com/category/Kia/) Picanto and Rio. Both superminis are bathed in white or black domino paint jobs and add a few options such as air conditioning. The Picanto Domino goes for £7,995 (http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert.cgi?Amount=7995&From=GBP&To=USD) OTR , the Rio Domino for £9,295 (http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert.cgi?Amount=9295&From=GBP&To=USD) OTR. Follow the jump fo Kia's press release, and view the cars' metallic monochrome goodness in the high-res gallery below.
