Kia Forte overview

 Kia is a highly respected Korean car manufacturer, including SUVs, mid-size cars and compacts like the Forte. It has earned its reputation by producing mechanically reliable, comfortable cars that drivers can rely on for getting to and from work as well as for family driving. The Forte particularly distinguishes itself with its carefully constructed interior, which puts a premium on comfort and convenience.

The Kia Forte is a good choice when it comes to cost of ownership. Its fuel economy rating averages 25 miles per gallon for city driving and 34 mpg on the highway.

Cost of ownership

Since it is mechanically reliable, you can expect not to have to pay for much other than routine maintenance, especially during the first few years you own your car. It also has many standard features that are optional on other cars, so its initial cost may be lower when compared to a comparable car with a similar, or even with a lower, sticker price. Keep in mind that the Kia powertrain warranty covers your Forte for ten years or 100,000 miles, which makes it one of the best powertrain warranties offered on any car.

Safety features

When it comes to safety, the Kia Forte is a shining star. It is packed with protective features, including six airbags and a stability and traction control. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety rates this car a Top Safety Pick, and it earned four stars in each of the four safety categories for which the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration rates cars. Optional safety features, such as a navigation feature, add additional levels of protection to this already-safe car.
