So far, I'm loving it
Going on 3 months in my new Forte S, and so far it is exceeding all of my expectations. Performance, gas mileage, technology, the looks etc...My first Kia was 2012 Soul, that had surprisingly zero problem, which led to buying my 2nd Kia. Only thing is It doesn't have the push start button but I see it as one less point of failure. For a $20K car this one is a definite winner.

Amazing car
Plenty of leg room in the front and back seats and very reliable. Love the features also. Definitely my best vehicle purchase by far. I highly recommend getting this car.

Over all disappointment
I bought my 2019 kia forte lxs in January of 2019. Durning the winter I have no cabin heat. I call my dealership and the looked at it... I was informed that the car was within specs and there was nothing they could do about it. Living in the upper midwest of the United states heat is important to me. I have had issues none stop. Anywhere from no heat to no front license plate holder, which I am required to have in my state. All for which I have received answer of that there is nothing they can or will do for me.

Reliable but....
It's a great car. Good performance for a 4 cylinder. The audio and touch screen system is amazing. I love the sports mode for passing idiots in front of me. However. I've only had mine for less than 2000 miles, bought it brand new, and I've had a few issues. Sometimes my passenger window doesn't wanna roll down. My drivers side back window refuses too. And today my passenger seat decided someone is there bc the alarm keep going off. It's a great car. The first car I've bought brand new. Very comfortable but I'm not fully happy with the electronic system. Thank goodness its under warranty.

Sweet ride. Upgrade
The only problem I'm having is the steering wheel seems to be kind of hard to turn. It's not a smooth gliding turn. It feels like it is rubbing. The dealership said nothing is wrong with it

Kia Forte 2019; Great car for an affordable price
The car checks off in most categories; it drives pretty smooth, the interior is comfortable, the center screen works well with everything. The seats are pretty comfortable. I love the look of the car, especially in black. It has a stylish look, while still being affordable. I'd compare it to a Mazda. Obviously a Mazda is a step above, but the Kia Forte comes pretty close, for a great monthly price.

Would never buy again. Has great gas mileage, looks good but no way to put hitch on for bicycles so we can't even use it for the reason we bought go-to travel with our bikes. Radio sucks too. No xm so had to buy separate Xm syrius radio.

The first car I bought
It's the first vehicle I ever bought. I'm pretty satisfied with it. It is dependable and definitely worth the price. The acceleration is mediocre. But other than that, the car is everything I need
