Has everything you would want in a car!

Okay where can you get a brand new car for the price of a used car. Today's cars that offer frontal impact automatic stopping and Lane control assist and many other safety features standard. So many car companies make you go for the upper-level models before they will give you anything. Kia not only gives you safety features of comfort features like dual climate control and a very economical 40 miles to the gallon sometimes. The Styling is unique they shared some of the Stinger styling. I actually think they engineered this car very well some people complain about the CVT transmission but that's why the thing get such good gas mileage. Oh not to mention they added more sound installation and also put in a nice little Apple and Android auto carplay standard. So far this car has been flawless in its first 10,000 miles of driving. If you want a car it is the same price of a used car and you want it new there's not many options. However enter the new Kia Forte which I call a used car beater. This car has exceeded all my new car expectations. Just go and drive one especially the lxs or the new Forte launch edition you won't be disappointed. Awesome engineered car for the money. Honda and Toyota have a new horse to contend with in the Forte. You may be like me you go to the market for a good used car and you come home in a brand new Kia Forte for less money. Thank you Kia.

The price is right

We needed a reliable vehicle for long daily commuting and the price was right with just enough bells and whistles and safety features. Great gas mileage. Feels smooth on the highway but it takes a while to get up and go. Hills are a challenge. I would not say it's a fun car to drive, but it's adequate. For our needs - the perfect fit.

Amazing car

I went to crowley just to look around and see what they had.had no intentions of buying a car. Well I had Robert capellini as a salesman and he was wonderful.very friendly and compassionate.i had alot of concerns and alot of questions and he was very patient and polite with me..lol he helped me get into a 2019 Kia forte and was able to leave with it that day.i would highly recommend him to anyone looking to get a vehicle. He is very knowledgeable and honest

LOVE THIS CAR!!!!

Wasn’t too sure about switching to Kia at first because I used to own a Hyundai and liked how it drove but I absolutely love this car! This interior is super comfortable and perfect for my commutes. The car drives super quietly and smooth but speeds up quickly and efficiently. Would recommend for anyone wanting a nice ‘luxury’ car without paying the ‘luxury’ price.

Great Car for an unbelievable price

This is the right car for anyone who needs space and practicality. So much trunk space and plenty of tech to accommodate anyone. This has excellent engine pick up and is a dream to drive.
