In the “boxy” segment, two Goliath nameplates ruled supreme:
Scion xB (owned by Toyota) and Nissan Cube. When Kia launched
Soul, their entrant to the “boxy” segment, they needed to start a
conversation with a younger audience than they ever had before. But establishing a contemporary identity wasn t enough; Soul
would need to de-position bigger-spending Scion and Nissan.
Soul’s “A New Way to Roll” embedded itself squarely in popular
culture, connected with a whole new audience, sold the cars, and
ended up dominating the “boxy” car market.
