2023 Kia Forte GT (G2 Package) Sporty Blue

Great vehicle, knocking out 43 miles per gallon on HWY. Quick but not that quick. Great features that rival vehicles in the 40k range. Great handling, almost a different car with the GT exterior cosmetics. The Harmon Kardon sound system does not reach the potential due to the vehicle's white noise sound coming from the engine and exhaust. You have to raise the volume to 50+ out of 70 to have some sound. The sun roof with the vent only mode, barely opens. The LED lights work a wonder lighting everything up without blinding other drivers. Great Ambient Light setting, can change to any color you like... So the GT logo on dash lights up as well as the side panels. I only have put 1500 miles on it , so far...I'm pleased for the price. paid above msrp for 31k

First Kia - Fantastic Experience

I recently purchased a 2024 Kia Forte GT Line. I did a ton of research before making this purchase. I feel the expert reviews really undersell this fantastic car. I love the handling and it is totally capable for passing and on the highway. It is super fun to drive. I read a lot of expert reviews saying that it was sluggish I have not had that experience. The IVT is tuned really well and the simulated shifts make the driving experience smooth. I am getting 36 mpg with mixed driving. The infotainment display is crystal clear and easy to use. Apple CarPlay works great, although not wireless. Wireless charger works well I love the placement and the compartment below it for extra storage. The seats are very comfortable and the drivers seat has additional lumbar and bolstering. This is my first time owning a Kia and I could not be happier with my Forte so far. I have previously owned Honda, Hyundai, Mitsubishi and Jeep vehicles. I would pick the GT Line Forte over all of them. I also test drove the LXS model and enjoyed it. However, ultimately wanted the extra tech and interior upgrades. If you’re looking for an affordable, reliable and stylish vehicle - the Forte is worth test driving.
