No matter what the weather conditions can be, it’s always important to have a vehicle that can handle them with ease especially when you’re around Leominster and you never know if it will snow or not. But your Kia Soul should be fine in the snow, right? Are Kia Souls good in the snow even without the right tires? What about Kia Soul snow chains? The team at Ron Bouchard Kia is here to help break down all of the questions that you still have about if the Kia Soul has a snow mode and more with this helpful guide.
If you’re finding yourself asking questions about your vehicle’s ability to handle the winter, then schedule time with our service department and we’ll help set you up with everything you need.
So to come right out from the start, the Kia Soul does not specifically have a snow mode installed as part of its traction control. That being said though, the Kia Soul does come with a number of features that can help you stay safe regardless of what weather conditions might be like around Fitchburg. The first of these is the aforementioned traction control. This gives you a great deal of control over the torque being sent to the wheels, which in turn prevents your wheels from spinning while accelerating on a slippery surface.
On top of the traction mode, the Kia Soul comes with a number of crash-avoidance technologies that can help you whenever the weather starts to get bad. Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist systems can trigger your emergency brakes when you might be losing control on black ice or if you begin to accelerate too quickly.
One thing that a number of drivers have commented on across the web, and our expert service team agrees with, is that the Kia Soul performs spectacularly even during winter conditions. However, this is only after you have switched out your tires for proper winter tires. Factory standard or all-purpose Kia tires often don’t have the traction and control that you need when the snow starts to fall heavily around Gardner, which is why our team suggests you make sure you have the right Kia Soul winter tires equipped. Our parts department can help with that.
If you’re entering an area where tire chains are recommended or required, then you can often find Kia Soul snow chains that will fit your vehicle properly. However, you should consult your owner’s manual about which Kia Soul snow chains work best. Always make sure that you’re picking up snow chains that are SAE Class “S” certified to prevent damage to your vehicle.
It’s not just outside where you need to make sure your Kia Soul is ready for the snow. It’s also inside! And we can tell you that even in temperatures that can routinely get down to -10 or -20 °F, your Kia Soul will not have trouble starting and becoming comfortably warm inside. Many of the latest models of Kia Souls come with the Kia Access app, which allows you to remotely start and control the temperature inside the cabin so that by the time you get out to your vehicle, it’s a comfortable temperature.
It’s not just the winter months, but all year round, that the Kia Soul can shine for drivers in and around Lancaster with the help of Ron Bouchard Kia. Make sure that your vehicle is staying up to date on all of its maintenance needs with our selection of service tips and tricks today.
