Kia Forte Change Vehicle

"Even in "Economy" mode, this car has great acceleration and handling."

"This Forte 5 SX has 3 driving modes: normal, sport, econo. In econo mode, mixed driving mostly in town - average vehicle speed 38 km/h the fuel economy is great at 8.4 lts/100. With the 7 speed dual clutch transmision you get the best of both worlds. No clutch to worry about engaging, just like driving and automatic; and the peppiness of a turbo 4 ith manual transmission. If you are using the steering mounted paddle xxxxers, or the consul shift lever, set to manual mode, shifts up and down, are immediate (no lag like in a regular automatic transmission) The brakes work well but are a little grabby still (1200 kms). When downshifting for deceleration purposes, this little turbo 4, does not provide a lot of engine braking. Tires a super low profile and leave the alloy rims open to severe curb damage. (have AlloyGator installed at dealership) The front nose is alsosubject to curb damage. Looking for a front parking sensor for this vehicle"

"Acceleration is fine' brakes are super, easy to drive and comfortable. Fuel economy is sensational."

"Acceleration and handling were the big surprises in this car. We traded in an aging but beloved 2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser and the difference wa amazing. The Forte tells you practically everything but the response and handling are things you brag to others about. Astounding!"

"Slow acceleration, but overall handles well"

"It is not fun and a daily chore"

"Accelerates well. When hitting bumps on the highway on a bend, car is hard to handle."

"Like the styling, backup camera, cruise control, handling. Dislike lack of standard spare tire."

"everything is great! we usually keep in eco mode but we have shorter on ramps here and so sport mode is great to have. This car is plenty fast and handles very well."

"The seats are high enough to get in and out easily for someone with joint problems, and the driver's seat's ability to be raised and lowered is fantastic. This is a very comfortable car. You cannot hear a thing from outside with the exception of emergency vehicles. The ride is superior and smooth."

"For the price, this can't be beat. We looked at Honda Fit, which is a smaller car, but costs just as much as the Forte. The Hyundai Elantra and Elantra GT were very nice, but again, more costly. It still amazes me how awesome the Forte is for the price"

"Got a lot of features for the money"

"Lots of safety features, good looks, and good performance for a very good price."

"We leased a Forte S with a sunroof and the money was well worth it. I love the look of the car, the comfort and space in the interior and sunroof is really nice to have. This package came with the advanced safety gear and this thing is amazing. The lane keep assist will actually push back to the center of the lane and braking system can see what is ahead and bring the car to a stop if you are not paying attention. After driving and experiencing the safety systems I had to get this car for the family. We have three drivers under 25 and makes me worry less when the kids are out with the car."
