    The car pickup process has been improved to specify the exact parking spot, which is better than before. The vehicle is relatively new, with only 10,000 km mileage. It now comes equipped with a backup camera and radar alert, making it safer. The navigation system can be directly connected to the phone, eliminating the need for a phone holder.

    Like: Had the choice of Toyota Corolla, Hyundai Elantra, and Kia Soul. After sitting in all, I selected the Kia Soul because of the excellent visibility, easy to get in and out and great driver seating position. I am 6ft tall and I was not cramped. Everything is easily accessible from the driving position. Driving is easy with a responsive motor and transmission. 3 driving modes for all conditions. We drove in town, Interstate and Highway and covered 400miles in 3days. I was very impressed with the performance and economy.
    Dislike: Nothing.
