Pope Francis has urged other church officials to think about all the countless number of people who do not have enough to eat, before they use high-end cars. Related to the pope’s choice of car, that will sport the “status civitatis Vaticanae -1″ license plate, Kia, South Korea’s second-largest carmaker, did not release any official statements, stressing it does not advertise matters related to religion or its leaders. A corporate source, however, said in private that the pontiff’s use of the Soul could help promote the car to prospective consumers down the line. The Soul, made famous by its Hamster commercials, has been a popular car for the carmaker thanks to its unique shape, practicality, modest sticker price, and funky style. Now, this simple, stylish car has become a chariot to the Pontiff. Because it is a box type, it has excellent room for passengers and offers good visibility. The newer version released in late 2013 has been cited for much improved handling and ride quality compared to the previous model. Kia, one of the flagship companies of Hyundai Motor Group, the world’s fifth-largest automotive conglomerate, said it had sold some 961,138 Souls as of July of this year, with demand being high among young people and in countries such as the United States. The car that first reached consumers in 2008 has been particularly popular in overseas markets, where combined sales have reached 881,549 units. This includes 55,195 cars built abroad and makes up 91.7 percent of all Soul’s sold so far.
