Outstanding Quality for an Affordable Grade Car

Didn't realized an affordable car could be so nice. The main con I'd list about it is that it has no cruise control. I normally replace the OEM radio and speakers on all my cars anyway, but with the low price it doesn't feel so bad to replace what the manufacturer has put in. With the extra money I put in a subwoofer/amp as well as a remote start! Pros: Cheap/Reliable Car Cons: No Cruise Control or Alarm System

Pete Moore Chevrolet

It is a cute little car. Hopefully will remain reliable for many years. The salesman I had was very nice and very helpful. I am enjoying it so far.

Most reliable car I've owned, so far!

This seems to be a fairly reliable car. It is great on gas, drives smooth, is very fast, and has lot's of great features. I love the automatic foldable outside mirrors, as well the touch screen display screen inside. The few disappointing things I find about this car is the bluetooth, sometimes it is very hard to hear the person you are talking with. As well, the head space is limited, and I find their are many blind spots on this vehicle making it worrysom when shoulder checking etc. for other vehicles around me.

Safety was the reason I chose this car

I chose to purchase this Kia Forte because I had owned a 2012 Kia Forte. My 2012 Kia Forte had 121K miles on it, and would have gone on for a lot more. I was involved in a very serious accident. I was rear ended at a very high rate of speed, by a vehicle that was twice as heavy I my car. I was propelled a car length or more into another vehicle. Side swiped another, went down the enbankment and finally a tree stopped me. With all of the external damage the passenger compartment was completely intact. My 2012 Forte saved my life. In my opinion there is no other vehicle in this price range that is better than this one.

Nice average car for the cost

It is a vehicle with a good warranty to get around in. It is small and easy to handle. My mom purchased and it is the perfect size for her to go back and forth to the doctor. Great on gas!

Best little car

I love my car, great gas mileage, roomy enough for me and my family, very dependable. I mostly drive it back and forth to work but it?s also great for short trips up north too.
