What’s the price of the 2023 Technology Package?

LX is Kia Soul’s most affordable trim level. The Soul LX comes fitted with a 2,0L 4-cylinder engine that packs 147 horsepower and is mated to the carmaker’s IVT automatic transmission.

Previously, the LX trim also offered a 6-speed manual gearbox, but Kia discontinued the unit for the 2022 model year (unfortunately).

When it comes to pricing, the 2023 Kia Soul LX is the cheapest trim level in the Soul model range with the MSRP starting at $19,790 (this price excludes $1,295 destination charge).

Opting for the Soul LX Technology Package costs additional $500, which means that the MSRP of the 2023 Soul LX with Technology Package comes in at $20,290.

On the other hand, the Soul GT Line LX Technology Package costs $2.400.

Soul Technology Package Q&A you may be interested in

1. Does Technology Package include the sunroof?

It doesn’t if you opt in for the Soul LX. If you want a Soul with sunroof, you will have to upgrade either to the EX or GT-line trim.

2. What is the size of the navigation touchscreen in the Soul LX Technology Package?

The 2023 Kia Soul LX Technology Package features an 8-inch color touchscreen for the navigation system. There’s also a larger 10.25-inch touchscreen available, but it requires an upgrade from the LX trim.

The good news about the standard 8-inch navigation system is that it still supports Android Auto and Apple CarPlay smartphone integration!

3. Does the 2023 Soul Technology Package offer AWD?

None of the Kia Soul (trim levels) comes available with all-wheel-drive. There are many consumers looking for such an option, but unfortunately the Soul is a front-wheel-drive model only.

Those folks seriously considering a small crossover vehicle with all-wheel-drive system should take a look at the 2023 Kia Seltos crossover, which is priced in a similar range as the boxy Soul, but also comes with standard AWD.


If you’re in the market for an entry level boxy car that doesn’t cost a lot, you should strongly consider the 2023 Soul crossover.

Over the years, the “hamster” ride has proven to be a reliable, fun to drive and affordable vehicle with a plethora of standard and optional features!
