What engine and transmission does the PS Kia Soul Si have in Australia?

The Australian PS Soul Si uses a 2.0L MPI petrol four (113 kW / 191 Nm) driving the front wheels through a 6-speed manual or optional 6-speed Sports-matic automatic.

Does a used PS Kia Soul still have warranty?

The PS Soul was sold with Kia's 7-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty. Depending on the build/sale date, later examples may still be within that period, and Kia's warranty transfers with the car when sold privately in Australia.
