According to my research a 2015 Kia Soul with a manual transmission can be flat towed but if you have an automatic you will need to tow it using a tow dolly. You need to confirm all of this in your copy of the owner's manual and/or with your local Kia dealer.
If you have a manual transmission I recommend the following equipment:
Demco Classic Base Plate Kit - # DM9518312
Demco Commander II Series Tow Bar - # DM9511012
Demco Tow Bar Combo Kit with Diode System - # DM9523057
Brake Buddy Classic 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System - # HM39494
The Demco towing products are some of the easiest to use and the Brake Buddy Classic is a newer braking system that is an upgraded redesign of one of the best braking systems on the market.
If you have an automatic transmission I recommend the using the Demco Kar Kaddy SS # DM9713045 because it comes with everything you need plus it has the ability to fold for storage at home and at the camp site.
I have attached some review videos on these products that you can check out.
