Kia Scoops Two Wheels Magazine Gold Star Cars Awards
Monday November 9, 2009, posted by Staff
Kia has scooped two category wins in the Wheels Gold Star Cars awards, Wheels magazine’s annual rating of the best ownership propositions in the Australian car market.
Wheels Gold Star Cars is a value-based analysis of what makes a car the best to own on a daily basis and considers factors such as purchase price, warranty, service costs, fuel costs, retained value, safety and insurance costs, along with the Wheels team’s evaluation of how a car drives.
The Kia Soul3 CRDi earned the ‘Best Small/Medium $26-31K’ category, beating the Volkswagen Golf 118TSI and the Skoda Roomster TDI. Wheels praised the funky Soul for its thrifty 1.6-litre turbo diesel engine, its unlimited kilometre five-year warranty, its 15,000km service intervals, its long list of standard safety features and its competitive insurance costs.
