Snow white car fast and furious.
There is no problems with my car. It is a good car. It is gets to point a to point be. They tires need to be fixed. But it brakes on a dime. And it is fast and drives smoothly. No issues. It is an amazing car to have. I love it. Also it is neat. Good quality.

Cross-country champion you will not regret!
I love this car! It has made 4 cross-country trips in the last 5 years and has never given me a problem! Comfortable and great gas mileage. For a smaller vehicle you have a lot of storage space. I was able to fit everything I own in it when I move across the country!

Kia's highlights and one issue.
My car is a stick shift and I have had it for 3 years now and the only problem I have had is the engine light keeps turning on for no reason and they say it's my gas cap? However car runs fine and is very comfortable for long distances. The gas mileage is good, a full tank is only like $30 and can get you over 400 miles. The trunk is very spacious and there is lots of room in the car for longer legs.

Love my Kia forte. Great gas mileage and extremely reliable car.
My Kia forte is very reliable I have not had many problems at all. When I have had to replace some parts from normal wear and tear they were very affordable. It is a small compact car so easy to drive and park. Air works great and the car drives very nice and smooth. It also gets great gas mileage which is a huge plus.

2015 Kia black forte, drives amazing and has great features!
My vehicle performs well. I haven't had many problems with it except for minor issues. I love all the features available inside, as I use the aux cord and the Bluetooth constantly. It is comfortable and nice looking on the inside as well, and the perfect size for me.

I call her sparkles because of the pretty sparkly white paint.
I bought my car in 2014 when I was moving to ks and knew I would be driving a lot back and forth to my home town. She has just about 100,000 miles and other than normal maintenance I haven't had any issues with the car. Great gas mileage and very reliable car, when I buy another one it will be a kia for sure.

I absolutely love my Kia forte!!
I absolutely love my vehicle. I literally have zero complaints. Best part is great gas mileage. I have never had to have more than routine maintenance done on this car. I recommend it to everyone! If anything ever happened to this car I honestly think I would look for one just like it because honestly it's absolutely amazing. I love it so much!

The gas mileage is great roughly around 35mpg.
The gas mileage is amazing, smooth driving, sound system is okay in it, really is to handle, does perfect in the rain, has a backup camera, side mirrors fold in when you lock it so no one takes off your mirrors, it is sorta spacious but not really, good reliable car for long distance travels.

2015 Kia forte and still going strong.
The only issues I have had with my vehicle are cosmetic. My back window tint has bubbles and a plastic piece on the top of my car came off, but despite these two things, my car experience has been awesome. The vehicle is reliable, comfortable, and the gas mileage is great.

Kia forte chamber 4 issues.
Engine chamber issues. My car sometimes will stop accelerating and blow out a big black smoke puff and stop. It only does it sometimes and at random. I have gotten it looked at many times and at first they couldn't find anything wrong with it. This last time I took it in and I haven't had any issues with it in the last 5 months. They said that it was an issues with the 4th chamber.

Honest review of 2015 kia forte lx.
In 6 years I have had no major issues with my 2015 kia forte. I love it! Kia always backs their products, so regular maintenance has been a breeze as well. The gas mileage on my vehicle is great, plus I have the option to use eco which then saves even more gas.

Very easy car to live with.

A car worth looking at for your next purchase.
My cars engine is a v6 and is good on travel and gas. It only takes 30 to fill from completely empty. I would strongly recommend the Kia forte especially if you are planning to take a lot of trips this next year. It is very reliable when it comes to your choice in transportation.

My car is black. The comfort is endless and it is all wheel drive. The interior is black and there are cup holders in the doors and in the back seat. The car can hold up to five people.

Review of 2015 Kia forte!

Kia: the dependable and comfortable car.
I love my car. It has been very dependable. I have not had to put in the shop for anything besides the normal oil change in stuff. We have had to take a few road trips and it has been very comfortable. I do wish it had cruise control, that would make long trips more favorable.

Bad quality, low performance, cheap motor and battery life low.
The car is already shaking 6 years in I had to replace battery after 1 year. Of use. I also had to replace brakes and the car is okay with gas tank has issues filling up and the car never reads the correct number of miles it has left. I would not recommend this car to anyone very unstable and I am not sure what else it's going to need do soon.

2015 white Kia forte lx. Reliable mechanically.
The car gets good gas mileage, is reliable, and drives smoothly. I am still able to drive it in the mountains and also great for around town. My biggest complaint is that it does not do well on ice and I often feel unsafe during the winter. Also, the paint chips fairly easily.

If you are looking for a safe and reliable car just a Kia.
The Kia forte has been such a reliable car. I have not had a single issue since purchasing the car brand new in 2015. There also has not been a single recall either which makes me feel safe driving it around. The main complaint I have about the car is that it does not come equipped with keyless entry or cruise control. So if those are two important factors this car probably is not for you. Other than that, I do not have any complaints and I hope to drive this car for another 7 years.

My vehicle is good on gas . I downsized from and SUV and I miss the extra room. It also sits very low to the ground which has been a huge adjustment. Even though it is a newer vehicle I am starting to have a lot of usage items needing to be replaced with just a little over 60,000 miles on it .

Not a bad car to drive daily.
It is a great car to have and drive everyday. It do not uses that much gas daily. It is a small compact car. The performance is real nice to be that model. The only thing I do not like about it is it do not have the push start and no cruise control. Some of the forte do have push start and sunroof.

This make and model is very durable and reliable. I especially love the interior design. Bluetooth feature and spacious seats.

Kia forte lx 2015 automatic.
This has been a very dependable vehicle. I have driven it from Tn to Nv and back twice. I would suggest that Kia improve the shift points on the automatic transmission. It tends to downshift to quickly and not upshift quickly enough when accelerating.

My car is very reliable and it seems to be limited and unique!
I love everything about my car. To me it is the perfect car. The way it runs is perfect and the speeds is goes to is impressive. I always wanted blue as my car. Actually every car I owned was blue. The seat in my car are perfect for me. The seats actually not only adjust front and back they also adjust up and down. 60 the only problems I had was my car was two different problems. I really only had this first problem because my tires keep going low. The positive thing about that was that my car would tell me when they were low. Another positive thing was that the tires for my car were very cheap. The last problem I had was that I had to buy a new battery. But it only makes sense I had the car for five years it was probably time for a new one.

Great warranty - comfortable - great gas mileage.
My car is great in most aspects. I have had quite a few minor issues, but most of them have been covered under Kia's unbeatable warranty. My car is 5 years old and I have gone through 5 different batteries - random things such as shims, motor mounts, and alternator pulleys have needed to be replaced - luckily these have all been under warranty. The gas mileage and the pickup in the car is great! It is also very comfortable.

Luxurious Dragster Race Car
The only vehicle problems to me would be the brake. I find when driving over the manholes/service inspection cover it's hard to brake on it. The car tends to slide over them more so when it rains. It feels under your foot as if you're about to crash into the next car or shifting gears. My suggestion brake 10 feet away from the car.

2015 Kia forte le would recommend to anyone.
I have had this car for 5 years and I have had no problems at all. I have put over 100,000 miles on my car and it still drives fine very reliable. It is very comfortable I have driven to from pa to va plenty of times. The mileage on the car is awesome I spend no more than $32 to fill it up. The trunk space is more than enough. The parts are reasonable when I need a battery replacement or when the headlights go out.

The eco detail is probably my favorite, due to cutting costs for gas.
Nothing really wrong, it has made some funny noises, which almost seemed to be some kind of overexertion while attempting to accelerate up hills or steep areas. Aside from that, the car has proved to be quite solid and reliable, offering an eco mode to use less gas, and its regular setting of course. When using the eco setting, the only real difference while actually driving seems to be that while accelerating from a stop it takes just a tad longer to get to whatever speed you want then it would in just the regular setting. The car's interior is both spacious and comfortable and offers Bluetooth wireless connection and a few other dash features to assist the driver, one for example being an alert system. So say your front tire had started to leak air, once you cut the car on it will signal so on the dash letting you know it must be checked out. So, that about wraps it up for my review on the 2015 forte, which has served me well enough so far.

My Kia forte 5 is my best purchase yet in car buying.

Meh- It's an okay car. Mediocre at best.
It is a fairly reliable car, but it was never my dream car, so I do not love it. The sensor on my battery corroded and needs to be replaced. On another car, this wouldn't be that expensive, but Kia requires you purchase a specific piece, putting me out $400. Again, it's a fine car, but I don't like it.

I love the shape and body of it. Plus it is like a mini coupe if you will call.
None applicable. Practically brand new. Rides smooth, great on gas. I have driven to New Orleans and back in this car. Only thing is I have to get new tires since then. They have adequate tread but I can tell they’ll be worn soon. But it is okay BC it is still a nice car. Especially gas efficiency.

Kia forte reliable and comfortable.
This car has a smooth ride and is attractive. It is low maintenance with great gas mileage. I think this car is a great small family or single car. It is safe and has nice tech gadgets, including Bluetooth radio. An average full tank of gas right now costs between 17-20 dollars and when prices are normal around 25-30 dollars which is very affordable especially with the amount of miles you get. The comfort of the car is great, in total you can have 5 people in the car but for the most comfort having 4 would be the best bet.

It is a comfortable, smooth driving car with great gas mileage and reliability.
The 2015 Kia forte is very reliable as far as I can tell. It is very comfortable, get good gas mileage, drives very smoothly. It has an eco setting, and Bluetooth. The ac and heating is very good so far and it has functions such as volume control, skip track, answer or decline call, voice assistant, and cruise control all built-in to the steering wheel. While the Bluetooth does work very well, there are times if you leave your car running, walk away and come back it may disconnect and you might need to turn your car off and on again in order to reconnect to Bluetooth. The voice assistant itself is not very good but when your phone is connected you can use the assistant on your phone. So really it is just minor things about this car that I do not like over all this is an amazing vehicle that I love very much and I would certainly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable car.

Reliable, cool, customized for you.
The Kia forte is extremely reliable. I have put a lot of miles on it and haven't had any problems yet. The eco option really helps you save on gas. I love that it keeps track of how many miles you have left in gas tank before feel up is needed. Accelerates lovely, also has 3 different power steering settings, which gives you options based on your driving preference. I personally interchange between all 3 depending on my mood and driving situation. Finally, the cosmetics on the outside, can only be described as, simply but surely, cool. You don't have to spend all your money on a sports car and sacrifice on gas. This car looks cool as hell parked, and on the road. People can't even believe its a Kia sometimes.

Car is good, tires not so much
I've had issues with the quality of my brakes now that my car is 5 years old even changing them I note it is not as effective as it once was. Performance is okay but again the quality of the car has lessened now, it is more shaky and noisy even though there seems to be no issues with it. I have also had terrible experiences with the tires. This car has a safety lock for all four tires so you need a key to be able to put on or take off the car's tires. This is super inconvenient if you get a flat tire and misplaced the key. In addition I realized this car didn't come with a spare tire the first time I got a flat tire. In regards to features the eco gas feature is good with gas saving other than that all features are very basic.

A sandy colored dream to drive around in a state that is usually warm.
It is roomy to drive in and seats are comfortable. They're not leather seats. Handling and steering is perfect, not sensitive. Braking is normal. No sunroof, but windows are tinted and are electronic. Seats are manual and there is Bluetooth for the phone and satellite radio. Have to watch out for the curbs because the ride is low profile to the ground.

This car is an amazing vehicle.
I love this car it has had zero problems over the past 5 years. It has only needed to replace the battery due to my own error. The brake and engine work flawlessly. I would recommend this car for anyone. It is spacious for the size and it has very good tech. The Kia forte is an amazing car.

Not made for winters
Replaced all 4 tires in less than 5 yrs due to hitting potholes. Windshield frosts up on inside. Side windows get stuck due to no over bar between glass and roof.

Kia Forte: Not All Small Packages Are Dynamite
The size of the car suits me but it is too low to the ground for either my mother or my father, both senior citizens. We have had difficulty with a warning light that never goes off, and service can't determine why. The car does not ride smoothly and sometimes seems to jolt and stutter.

It has the eco mode and saves on gas. It is a nice size economy car. It has a nice roomy truck.
I really like my car. I like that is has the economy mode to save on gas. I can't think of anything that I don't like at this time.

TripAdvisor; let’s you track your miles if you are going on a road trip.
The Kia forte is a bit of a smaller, compact vehicle; best for people who do not have children. It is not the best car for y’all people. It is not a hybrid but it is great on gas and can be driven in eco mode. As far as the space goes; it does not provide much leg room in the back seat, but the front seats are adjustable. My vehicle does not have seat memory. The steering wheel controls make it easy to program the radio, track your mileage, and use the Bluetooth audio settings. With Bluetooth audio settings it easy for your phone to connect to the car to make calls and use the map. Touch screen display with full angle view back-up camera. There is also programmed navigation to help you get to wherever you want to go. The body feature is a grey/blue with silver trim. 4 door sedan. Large trunk space that is good for traveling.

I loved the value and the Great price.
I love the gas mileage and dependability. No complaints whatsoever. It is small but it is all I need.

2015 Kia forte family vehicle.
This car has a back up camera. It also has Bluetooth and sirius radio. It gets 26 miles per gallon. I have had no problems with this car. Only downfall to this car is the small trunk.

It is a good car for the money, great on gas, but not the ideal car if comfort.
My Kia Forte gets good gas mileage, it has a really nice backup camera, and I like that the rear window has a windshield wiper. But I do wish that the ride was more comfortable and I wish it was a little higher off the ground, also I find the seat and seat belt uncomfortable for say a larger set person. I think it is a good car for going back and forth to work but lacks the comport one would wish for in a long distance road trip.

Kia forte: perfect first car.
This car is comfortable and drives very smoothly and is a great first car for any new driver. It comfortably seats a driver and 4 passengers. It comes with a manual key, not an electronic key but the trunk can be opened with the key while the rest of the car remains locked. The car is easy to maneuver so turning, reversing, and parking are all fairly simple. The driver's seat and seat next to it can be adjusted forwards and backwards but not up and down. The base model of the car does not come with a built-in GPS or backup camera but those can easily be installed in the car. The interior is comfortable and easy to clean and the ac works well so the car can stay cool for warm climates. The exterior comes in a variety of colors (I have black and it is very sleek). The trunk has a good amount of space for a 4-door car and the back row can also fold down for increased space. The car is very efficient and gets good mileage on a tank of gas. As it is not a luxury car, regular gas is fine in this car which helps to save money on gas. It has Bluetooth capabilities for music and you can sync your phone for hands free calls. I get great use of this car and would most definitely recommend it to anyone searching for a new car. This was my first car and it was very good to get comfortable at driving in.

The color of the sky! Blue!
There is a lot of reasons I love my car. The most important thing to be was to get another blue car. I always had blue car any other time I bought a car. The only problem I have with my car is how outdated it is. My car does not have a touch screen radio at all. I feel like it should of been updated a little bit more. The only other problem I ever had was my tires. I seem to always see the tire light on and that I need to check it.

This a fun sporty car to drive but is made cheaply.
Interior is cheap and seat store. I had to have the steering wheel replaced in the first year. The fake carbon fiber accents on the exterior fade in the sun after a year. Gas mileage drops dramatically after 3 years even with all maintenance done. The paint does not hold up to Florida sun and has faded along with the headlights are peeling.

It is very spacious. Everyone is surprised how roomy it is & the storage space.
This car is compact and perfect for a first car! There are a lot of really great features such as Bluetooth, eco mode, different modes for the steering wheel (sport, normal ect.) It has amazing gas mileage! It is my favorite car to take on trips, averaging at about 35 mpg and I do not have to ever fill it up often, when I do it is never over $30.

It has great gas mileage.
I love that it is smaller than my last vehicle. It also has working air and great gas mileage. I wish the air would reach the backseat for the kids.

I absolutely love my car. I love all the features it has especially the ones on the steering wheel. The car is comfortable and reliable for those long car trips. What I love the most though is the fantastic gas mileage it gets. I went from driving a truck to this and I spend half as less money on fuel now. I recommend this car to anyone that asks me about it.

Kia forte - ignition issues.
2 years after I got my car, the key got stuck in the ignition and they had to replace the whole thing, than a year after that, one of my spark plugs was messed up and they kept it in the Kia parking lot for 2 weeks.. Not a good experience. It has so far be.

Gets fair mileage in the beginning. Great for travel.
Have had sensors go out. Does not tell you if you have low oil unless you're pretty much out. In the beginning did mpg were good but then went down hill. It is comfy though. My oldest loves the car especially since it has a middle cup holder in the back. Wish it had the option where it would tell you which tire was low like the older Kia did.

Great price for a brand new car back in 2015!
Great price great with a 6 year loan. Great performance. Rides so smooth on city streets. Minimal Maintenance. Great mileage on highway driving. Smooth and good on gas. I fill it up once a week and I am good to go. I love the color and air conditioner is wonderful.

Easy access to car seat anchors.
I like the gas mileage. The stock stereo is great. Just wish the car accelerated faster in eco mode.
