As long as you have at least 6" from the center of your hitch pin hole to the bumper on your 2021 Kia Soul you will have no problems using the full functions of the Swagman Chinook # S64683. The 6" is with the rack folded up, but when it's folded down you need at least 12-1/2" which is much more doable.
If you don't already have a trailer hitch then I recommend the Draw-Tite Class III # DT25GR (provided you don't have the 1.6L Turbo) because it has a larger 2" receiver. We haven't had a chance to install this on a Kia Soul yet so I don't have that clearance measurement but from the photos that other customers have sent in on an older model of this hitch the clearance doesn't look to be an issue.
