The Thule OutWay 2 Bike Trunk Mounted Bike Rack, part # TH45JV will fit your 2011 Kia Soul. It can carry 2 bikes and has a weight capacity of 66 lbs. This bike rack is easy to install and is one of our best sellers.

I would also recommend the Yakima HangOut 2 Bike Rack, part # Y02637. This is a trunk mounted 2 bike rack that has a weight capacity of 60 lbs. It is also one of the easiest to install.

If you are going to be carrying women's or children's bikes that do not have the horizontal bar at the top of the frame, you will want to use the Thule Bike Adapter Bar, part # TH982XT. It attaches to the center seat post and to the handlebar post and provides a horizontal bar, so the bike can ride level on the bike rack.

Your other choices of 2 bike racks to fit your Kia Soul would be a hitch bike rack and a roof bike rack, but you will need to also purchase a hitch or a roof rack to be able to attach those bike racks to your vehicle. If you are interested in using either of those bike racks let me know and I give you some top choices to choose from and recommend the hitch or roof rack you will need for your Kia Soul.
