Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Kia Soul than the Ford Mustang, due to its greater head- and legroom.
Offering just a little more front head- and legroom than the Kia Soul, the Ford Mustang may be a little roomier and more comfortable for the driver and front seat passengers.
Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Ford Mustang will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Kia Soul, which has a much lower MSRP.
Dimensions
Since the Ford Mustang is much wider than the Kia Soul, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging.
If you go with the Ford Mustang, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Kia Soul.
Handling
The Ford Mustang has a larger turning radius than the Kia Soul, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.
Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Ford Mustang has a much more powerful engine than the Kia Soul. However, something you should consider is that higher horsepower engines often command higher insurance premiums.
Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the engine of the Ford Mustang does a much better job of transmitting power to the wheels than the Kia Soul.
Utility
The Ford Mustang has less seating than the Kia Soul, making the Kia Soul the better choice if you need to chauffeur many passengers.
