The range on one charge for the Kia Soul EV is one of the problems, especially for earlier model years. The claimed range of 93 miles or 148 km is unreachable, in most cases. The driving conditions and driving style will affect the range. Also, any additional equipment like the heater or AC will drain the HV battery faster.
The real-life range should be considered 60-70 miles with perfect battery and even less than that with a naturally degraded battery.
