Edmunds – There can be little doubtfulness that the 2010 Forte marks Kia’s arrival as a serious player in this hotly contested segment.
Motor Trend – Built to go head-to-head with all the likes of the holy trinity of small & convenient cars – the Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic, and Mazda3 – the Forte bears absolutely no resemblance to nor shares a platform with the outgoing Spectra. Kia managed to get very clear this is a different vehicle, inside and out.
Washington Post – In our minds, many of us had equated “cheap” with, well, cheap. On the contrary immediately after putting close to five hundred mile after mile on the Forte EX, which sits in the middle of the Forte line, many of us replaced our stereotypical idea of “cheap” to a more appropriate “inexpensive.” In this instance, that meant remarkable value.
