Reliable and comfortable car I have ever purchased

This vehicle is comfortable, great on gas, reliable, drives smooth, and not to big nor to small! Great for my family, as well as commuting near or far from home.

1 Week Old

So far I am very happy with the Kia Forte. It's a comfortable midsize car with plenty of room for my needs. I car pool to Daytona State College with 3 other people and everyone said it was comfortable as well.

Talisa

I ended up getting a Kia Forte LX. It is everything that I wanted in a car. I would recommend this car to anyone who is looking for a good commuter car.

Great Gas Saver

Very solid car. Great on gas, averaging 30mpg city. Quick pickup for such a small engine. Interior is not flashy. Components and creature comforts are right on target with latest technology.

I'm Surprised by how much i love this car!!

I have been a Kia Soul convert since day one, but i have to say the Forte is amazing. I can't get over how smoothly it drives, and the gas mileage is probably even better than my old Soul. If you need a small sporty car, that can do as well in the city as on the highway, this is the one for you!
