2015 Kia Forte Overview, Reviews, Ratings & Specs

It is compact and will fit into virtually any parking space. The sound system is high quality. The gas mileage is fairly respectable for its class. Excellent maneuverability. We've had to do only the basic required maintenance to keep it on the road. No major repair work required yet which is impressive for a 5-year-old vehicle with significant mileage.

The technology, the safety of it, and the overall design. The look is pretty sleek and it appears to be a good car. Has not given me any major problems, but does need repairs on occasion. The care is overall easy to maintain.

Pros: inexpensive, has technological features available as standard vs. Other brands, reliable, good gas mileage. Cons: not much, some people care about brand and this is not one that gives you status. That is something I do not care about.

The Kia Forte is a nice compact sedan. Perfect for teens/young adults! The EX model is perfect for the driver looking for basics without a basic look! I could not have asked for a better first car for myself!

The main advantage of the vehicle is that it is very good on gas mileage. A full tank is only about $30. The 2015 Kia Forte LX also has a very smooth ride. You do not feel too many bumps. The car is also very spacious and roomy. This includes ample trunk space.

Very good on gas. Compact. Easy to drive. Sleek look. Nice leather seats. The car handles very well and has a very good braking system. Can go very fast. The Kia forte is overall a very good car for its price and not too expensive and has very good quality in the market.

Great gas mileage, spacious backseat, Sirius XM radio, hands free calling, Bluetooth radio, multiple charging ports, large trunk and seats fold down flat, the battery is easily accessible, has several alerts to let you know when fire pressure is low, etc.

It's cute and fast and gas mileage is 28 miles to the gallon. I like the sound system as well. I love the color of my car and it's pretty roomy. It's good on the highway as well. I like that the ac works well since I live in Arizona.

It is so low to the ground. It is not a comfortable ride for any of my family members. Not a lot of cabin room. Not a lot of trunk space. There have been pesky electrical glitches that do not affect roadworthiness but are annoying, like the trunk popping open whenever it pleases.

The care is expensive to maintain, there is not a lot of space on the inside. It is not good to travel with because it does not have a lot of the technology needed when traveling long distances. The maintenance of the car makes it hard to love.

Cons of the car are: is not a brand people recognize as giving you a status, is not a sports car for driving fast. This are things I do not care about as I need a car that is reliable and safe. Dealership is not great, usually pressure you to add more features to the car.

The cons of the Kia Forte are The lack of keyless entry, no cruise control, no cup holders in the backseat. Blind spot in front. The Kia Forte Sits very close to the road and catches everyone else's headlights just at the perfect spot to blind the driver at night.

One of the main disadvantages I have run into is that the car is not great in the snow. It slides very easily because it is front wheel drive. Secondly, I have had to replace the front brakes on it three times already. That may be because I drive quite a bit though.

Although the Kia forte is overall a very good car and does not give too many problems, there are a couple of downfalls. This car can get a little shaky when driving below 40 mph. When it is very cold out, car needs to warm up for a long time before you can drive.

I have had this car for almost 5 years, when it is cold it does not like to start right away. Sometimes it idles very loud at red lights or stop signs. The door handle literally just fell off one day and parts are outrageous. The skid plate underneath the car makes it difficult and time consuming to change the oil. There is no gas filter which means you have to buy a cleaner every 10k miles or so to clean your gas tank.

There really our know cons the tires our not as sturdy as I would like them to be. The trunk is pretty small as well. I wish I had a little more room since I love to shop and all. Other than that it's a pretty decent car.
