Kia Soul-Ev keeps an estimated 55% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #429 of 684 cars VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Kia Soul-Ev retains an estimated 55% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #429 of 684 cars we track. That is 18 points above the 37% five-year average for EV in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Kia Soul-Ev sheds about 9% of its original MSRP in year one alone. From roughly $33,950 it falls to around $18,536 by year five — a five-year loss near $15,414, about $8.45 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Kia Soul-Ev bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
