2023 Kia Forte consumer reviews

excellent fuel efficient car very pleasant to drive if you want luxury look for a BMW or Mercedes this car is very reliable and functional.

New car already having problems with the tail lights getting moisture buildup, and headlights. Gas mileage not that good. Transmission is a cheap cvt. Scary feeling the way it shifts. Seats are really uncomfortable. Stereo is garbage, no good sounding speakers. This is the Gt-Line. Just a piece of junk car that doesn't hold it's value for very long.

Just a cheaply made car. Transmission feels sloppy, cvt. Gas mileage okay, but it could be better. Seats are really stiff, and the back seat has no air vents. Trunk space is good, for it's size. No spare tire, only repair kit. Suspension is flimsy, a bit strange. I'm getting ready to trade this in before the value drops any more. They don't hold there value reputation that well. It's not like a honda or toyota. It's a cheap Kia forte just like the Kia Rio.

"Awesome Ride" For the price tag being new, it's affordable. Full Warranty, this coverage is really incredible. Gas mileage is economy friendly. The body style is sporty. It's definitely a fun car to drive around. I, also like the interior design and these comfortable seats.

For the price, it's tough to beat. A brand new, great-looking, turbo-charged, 201hp car with (Syntex) leather, power moonroof, Apple CarPlay, heated seats, 18" alloy wheels, all the modern safety features, AND (my favorite) a manual transmission, for around $26,000?! Um, yes, please, I'll take the Gravity Gray one. Of course, it's not a top-of-the-line high-performance luxury car. But, you can't get one of those for anywhere near this price. It's quick, comfortable, and a blast to drive, especially with the 6-speed manual. And, the more I look at it and drive it, the more I like it.

Everything was great except for the fact that I do not have SXM on the radio, thought I was getting it until in the car, then opps no XM. Cannot dowload it, hard to use a xm player unit, using phone will use up date, no one has an answer for me.

Great performance, comfortable, great size, good design, mileage is great… it’s literally the best car at that price range, 100% recommended for sure. Don’t hesitate to buy it

I love my manual 6 speed Kia Forte GT. Bought her from Horne Kia in Gilbert AZ. My salesman, Patrick G was amazing. He was knowledgeable, funny, and very kind. I didn't feel pressured at all and he worked with what I wanted. I would definitely recommend the dealership and especially Patrick!

Just a heads up cars listed for msrp but when you inquire to buy they start hitting you with hidden additional costs. With these artificially inflated prices and high interest rates you'd think dealers would be working to move stock but instead they try to scam you. Such a shame another dealer tried to tell me they had to order a car to get pricing.

The car is wonderful the experience of buying the car was good. My sales man Rudy Thurman worked magic. I wasn’t sure what kind of vehicle I would be able to purchase. , but thanks to Rudy it was a brand new car.
