The Kia Forte is a great car for its price. It's a medium sedan with a slightly sportier look to it. It's a very comfortable ride, both in terms of the interior comfort and the performance of the car. The back seat area can be a little tight but is overall very fair. The trunk storage in particular offers a great deal of space for the car size. Maintenance is not very expensive and in my two years of owning it, I've not had any issues with the car. It is also a cheap car to drive, given its great fuel economy (roughly 36 mpg/highway) I really enjoy driving the car as it has great acceleration, brake response, and handles very smoothly. It also feels very safe to drive, though I try to avoid taking it out in bad weather. In addition, it has some great standard features, particularly a built in Bluetooth system. This makes it easy for me to use my phone, safely, while driving. There is also a great hookup for an iPod that runs through the car stereo system.
