Real families writing for cars.com voted the 2015 Kia Soul as the best “unexpected family car.” Testing cars that are not traditionally marketed for families, these writers chose the Soul for its ample space, easy to install car seats and plenty of storage space.

Cars.com asked a mom with three children — a preschooler and twin infants — to test cars outside of the traditional family car category, so there were no crossovers, minivans or large SUVs. After testing a number of cars, she picked the Soul as the best one for her family.

“The Soul is kid-tested, parent approved,” she said. The Soul’s boxy design and dimensions allow for plenty of headroom, and with its low floor the kids had no problem getting in and out. Up front and in the back, the Soul still offers tons of legroom for parents. You can only fit two car seats in a Soul, but  it offers wide, flat seats and exposed Latch anchors that make it very easy to install the cars seats.

“And they fit well,” cars.com says.

The cargo area is the other reason the Soul went No. 1. There are 24.2 cubic feet behind the rear seat, enough for a stroller and plenty of groceries. The Soul also offers underfloor storage bins that are great for everything that you need in case of emergency. Fold down that second row and you’ll get 61.3 cubic feet of space. That’s more than the Kia Sportage.

Cars.com says that kids will love the fun, funky exterior color choices, and mom and dad love the low starting MSRP price. The Soul was also voted an IIHS Top Safety Pick.
