There are several scenarios that can trigger the turtle mode in your Kia Soul EV. First of all, this is the low high-voltage battery charge. When it’s only two bars left, the vehicle will not be able to move with full power and speed, so the system limits power. Also, when something is wrong with the high-voltage system or its cooling, you will likely see this message.
The turtle mode is hard to diagnose right away. But when you just analyze what’s happening with your car, you’ll be able to quickly see the reason for this limited-power mode. I hope this video helps you understand what’s going on and why you see this limitation!
