Sporty yet affordable

We bought this car for affordability, but love it for the look and it is sporty..not what you expect from a Kia. My family is made up of tall men, I'm 5 foot, but they all have plenty of leg room and sit comfortably. Love this car...

Awesome Car

We had a 2012 KIA Forte, and decided to just upgrade to a newer model. We were approved for 2017 and could not be happier. We love, love it!!!

Great car

It was a great upgrade from what I previously owned. It is reliable. And it comfortable to ride in. I wished I would have bought it sooner.

Most reliable car I have owned

My husband and I own a Kia Forte. My son and daughter just leased a new Kia Forte. It is great on gas, reasonably priced and has everything we were looking for in a car. They have a ton of safety features. I especially like the back up cameras and the phone system so we can be hands free. It has plenty of room and I love the interior as well as the exterior appearance. I would definitely recommend this car.

Very nice comfortable car. Very good gas mileage.

Car had much more room than I thought it would have. Love the outer design and interior design. It's my first car in a long time and I'm loving it.
