2016 Kia Forte consumer reviews

Strong engine for the size, cruises up hills with no problem. Excellent driving position. Holds two adults in the back comfortably. The hatch area hold our 50 lb dog no problem even with the back seats up. Great styling, intuitive controls, and fit and finish you'd expect on a much higher priced vehicle. Had the Kia Soul before which we loved, and this feels just as big.

Endless space, great interior design, windows that let you see everything and peppy, dependable performance! What's not to love?

Great buying experience; best I've ever had. I would recommend Jenkins Kia of Ocala, FL, to anyone wanting to make a change in their transportation!

For a relatively new car, this provides great value. The seats are very comfortable and seem to hug your back. I'm excited to take this care on a road trip for the first time this summer with my family! I love the Bluetooth capabilities!

I have a 16' Forte sedan LX with the popular plus package (includes LED turn signals, backup cam, and cruise control). After driving many competitors (Civic, Corolla, Cruze) and found the Forte to have the softest ride. Its not the fastest but its great for commuting. I've put 16k miles on it in the first 6 months of ownership and have been problem free so far. I don't have any complaints for the car except the resale value for KIA is horrendous. Because of that, I'm probably just going to hold onto this car and drive it until the wheels fall off.

Looks nice but is very slugish. Gaining momentum going up hill is not a happening thing. Wish I had gone with a Spectra again.

The doors are very heavy Sometimes I push the car door with my feet to get out The power of the engine is somewhat lacking It's a four cylinder Visibilty is poor when I back up Rear window needs a design change I think I should have picked something more sportier

I bought this car about a week ago, and I couldn't be happier. This is by far the best car I have owned.

I've named my car Mandy. I've never named a car before. She's very stylish on the outside and very sporty on the inside. I have navigation, 17" wheels, leather and sunroof!! I traded my '05 Elantra for Mandy. I have not missed my Elantra! Mandy has a lot for the money. More then I realized!!! Better MPG then the Elantra and is very comfortable to drive long distance. VERY MUCH WORTH THE INVESTMENT OF A NEW VEHICLE!!!

I've only had my new Kia Forte EX for 3 days, however, I feel like I have been driving it forever. It is so easy to handle, that it took no getting used to. Every day I notice something new about it---still learning. It has plenty of power, and is smooth riding. Nice exterior and interior---I chose black and grey interior, and I love it. Trunk is spacious, as I am a beach person and I pack a lot into it. I am getting used to the back up camera. I am sure it will be helpful in the future once I get used to it. My compliments to Ian and the manager at Stamford Kia on Selleck St. They were very helpful in assisting me.
