Okay so here's the deal. I sold my 2024 Nissan Frontier pickup because I didn't like it! And I needed something with good fuel economy. So I looked at the Kia Forte. And the fuel economy is outstanding. I'm getting 40 miles per gallon. I drive 80 miles a day plus to and from work. The car is very comfortable, I love the options that it has. I'm very pleased with my purchase. This is the first Kia that I have ever owned. I have over 1,100 miles on it now. I did the first break in oil change at about 300 plus miles. I plan to change the oil again at 2,000 miles to make sure we get any break in material out of the oil pan. I am running Royal Purple motor oil and OEM Kia filter. Then I plan to put it on a 5000 Mi oil change schedule. Do not buy into this 7500 10,000 Mi oil change garbage that's all nonsense by the EPA! If you want to keep your car in good shape use synthetic oil and change it every 5,000 miles. I really like my Kia! If you're looking for a budget friendly car with a great warranty the Kia will fit the bill! I give the Kia car five stars!

I am beyond thrilled with my brand new 2024 Kia Forte LXS! I recently purchased it and have been driving it for a couple of days now, and I must say, it's exceeded all my expectations. First of all, the exterior design is sleek and modern, and the sleek & classy Black color I chose looks stunning. The LED headlights and taillights give it a premium look that turns heads on the road. The interior is where this car truly shines. The cabin is spacious and comfortable, with plenty of legroom and cargo space. The seats are supportive and adjustable, and the materials used are top-notch. I love the 8-inch touchscreen display and the wireless Android Auto - it's so convenient! But what really sold me on this car is the ride. It's so smooth and quiet, even on rough roads. The handling is responsive and confident, and the fuel economy is impressive (I've been getting around 38 mpg in the city!). I also appreciate the safety features, like forward collision avoidance and lane departure warning. It will also drive for you. It gives me peace of mind driving on busy highways. Overall, I'm so happy with my purchase. The 2024 Kia Forte LXS is an incredible value for its price, and I feel like I got a luxury car at an affordable price. If you're in the market for a reliable and feature-packed compact sedan, look no further than the Forte LXS. Five stars and highly recommended!"

10K mile review. The good: I like the looks, the refresh for 2024 looks great. Its a fun car to throw around and to me drives a lot like a 2020 Civic LX. Fuel econ is about 35 city/highway. Interior looks great for a 21K car. Its a very driveable city car. The 2.0L 147 horsepower isn't fast but feels quite quick and there is plenty of power for everyday driving. Where the car really shines is in the tech. Its just fantastic and a good decade ahead of the tech in my 2024 Civic sport. The Bad: Its a 20-22K car so obviously some corners are cut. The suspension and seats are fine for local driving but for long drives over 3 hrs it can take its toll especially if you are on the wrong side of middle age like myself. The paint, all shades in the LXS line, it just looks a lot duller than it should be. With better quality paint the car would really shine. The verdict: If it holds up (no problems so far) its a fantastic car for the money. I enjoy driving this car more in the city and my 2024 civic sport on long drives.

It was expensive for me, especially since my insurance went up to $200/month for full coverage, but having only owned it for less than a month I already absolutely love it. It has a smooth ride even on rough terrain, and the auto-steering works amazingly well to keep you in your own lane. The learning curve is a bit higher since most everything is tethered to the touch screen, but after playing with it I eventually got the hang of the features. I love the manual seat controls for up/down, I also would have preferred manual windows but it wasn't an option (I'm not a fan of automatic windows or seat controls as they usually go out first). Also, the passenger seat requires the seatbelt to be used if transporting something heavy enough to set off the sensor, else you have to sit through 100 of those annoying 'seatbelt warning' beeps, and you can't turn it off. You also cannot turn off the passenger airbag (not that I have found anyway). But aside from these few annoyances, it's a great car with great gas mileage. I bought after-market seat covers and all-weather floor mats for a LOT less than the factory ones.
