2014 Scion xB beat out 2014 Kia Soul

NAPERVILLE, Ill., June 2, 2014 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Even with more than 10 years of successful sales, the Scion brand is constantly fighting off competitors trying to meet the company's standards for unique vehicle design. What those other automakers continue to struggle with is finding the perfect mix of groundbreaking style and working functionality. Scion has found that mix with the 2014 Scion xB, currently available at Scion of Naperville. However, there is another vehicle on the market that is making a push toward knocking off the Scion xB. In order to help customers make the best decision possible, Scion of Naperville has done some research comparing the 2014 Scion xB vs. the 2014 Kia Soul.

On the surface, it would appear that Kia has cracked the code to what has made the Scion xB such a favorite among the Scion faithful. It has many similar design elements like the highly recognizable boxy design. Still, the 2014 Scion xB continues to be the class leader. Despite the improvements made by Kia in the Kia Soul, the xB simply has more to offers customers. Starting with the engine, the 2014 Scion xB is powered by a 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine that is capable of making 158 horsepower. This is plenty of engine to get the vehicle up and running around town. The 2014 Kia Soul has chosen to go another way and place a 1.6-liter, four-cylinder under the hood. This will give Soul a slight edge in fuel-economy, but at what cost?

When it comes to the functionality portion of the 2014 Scion xB vs. 2014 Kia Soul comparison, the xB comes away the winner there as well. Given the more generous proportions, the maximum available cargo area in the xB is 70 cubic-inches. This measurement actually places the Scion xB right up there with many crossover SUVs and certainly ahead of many of the compact crossovers. Furthermore, the 2014 Scion xB has been praised for actually having a functional rear seat that is suitable for seating full-size adults.
