i've owned a 2024 Kia Forte LXS for a year now and have put 11K miles on it. the car is smooth and reliable. i usually get a combined 37-39 mpg and when i'm on the freeway going 65mph i can get low 50s mpg. i plan on putting at least 200K miles on this car.

Kia Forte GT - A Best Value

2024 Kia Forte GT 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl Turbo 7AM)

Looking to replace my 2017 Civic Sport, which my 17 year old took over, I was certain I’d just buy a new Civic. Unfortunately the new civic I test drove didn’t perform like my 2017, despite having the same drivetrain. It was also roughly 50% more expensive, so I began looking for a better value. I eventually test drove a 2024 Kia Forte GT and was impressed. It seemed to deliver a much better value. Time will tell if it still looks that way years from now. I’ve put nearly 12,000 miles on the Kia and really like the car so far. I have only a few things I’d change if I could: 1) The OEM tires are not something I’d purchase, detracting from the otherwise solid performance for a car in this class 2) I’d like to see a hybrid version for close to the same price —gas mileage is mildly disappointing, consistently delivering mid- to upper-20s mpg around town. Again, minor issues in a car I consider a five star value.

Car runs great. But if you have an iPhone and plan on connecting to Carplay - good luck. I've had the car for two months and can't connect or get anyone on the phone to help me
