Looking for something sleek and sexy? Want to turn heads as you cruise down the road? Want to know that you have a good vehicle that is going to get you to your destination effectively, fashionably, and safely? Then look no further, because the 2019 Kia Forte EX is DEFINITELY the car for you. I recently purchased this vehicle and could not be more happier. It is by far one of the best vehicles I have ever owned. (And I have had a Kia before!) Kia's warranty alone is a MAJOR selling point for them, but all the extras is just an added bonus to the customer. This car is so affordable too! If you are feeling a little daring and adventurous, do what I did and get this vehicle in the "CURRANT RED". (Why not!!!?? You only live once right?) Get ready for the ride of your life, because this car is not only fun, but makes sense economically!

I spent two weeks in a Forte on a recent vacation, by mistake actually. There were five of us, and we reserved a larger car, but ended up with this instead. Yes, it's crowded with three in back, and with suitcases in the trunk, the rear suspension was pretty compressed. But it handled and accelerated acceptably well. With a lighter load, it was responsive. And we averaged 47 mpg on a long highway trip. The transmission did not seem like a CVT, and exhibited none of the annoyances those things are known for. Reliability after 100,000 mi. is another question, however, and CVTs are not rebuildable - it's seven grand for a new one. One design flaw however, is that the hood release latch is too exposed. I kicked it open three times during those two weeks. It only happened when getting out, so I managed to shut it, but it could get hairy on the highway.

I was looking for a used car for my daughter. After realizing that the prices for cars that are between 5-8 years old were astronomical, I decided to lease her a new car. The car is beautiful, both inside and out. It rides nicely and accelerates quickly. The screen for the radio and back up camera is really big.

I love my 2019 Snow White Pearl Forte EX. My only issue is the windshield wipers are attached underneath the hood. You cannot lift them to clean underneath them or lift them in the winter so they don't freeze to the windshield. Thankfully, I keep my car in the garage.

Bought my Kia Forte FE with a six speed manual transmission. Went to Yellowstone and back car rode good lots of trunk space. Cruised at 85 in Nebraska got 37 mpg. My 2nd. Kia very impressed with the brand no problems with either one. Paid $14,475 plus tax and liscence fees. I have a full sized spare got the rim from a junk yard. Bought the jack from Kia. Is nice that a full size spare fits in the well in trunk. Will be buying another Kia down the road. Love the 10 year 100k mile warranty. Eric from Lombard IL
