2015 Kia Forte - The Wonderful Kia
This car is one of the best cars I have ever owned. It has a superior look and design to it. It is sleek and fast. It is safe for my whole family, including my ten month old daughter. One of the main selling points was that it was a very safe car. It also has a superior radio/cd/mp3 system inside.

There is an ability to connect your phone wirelessly to the car, so that if someone calls you while you are driving you can simply press a button on the steering wheel to answer and there is a speaker above your head where their voice comes. It even has a backup camera! The seats are very comfortable, and the air control system works great. The trunk is big enough to fit a jogging stroller... (more)
Story
We drove this car up Green mountain (near Belfair, Washington). The car performed so well driving up the mountain, and it was very easy to get it back down too. The engine did not sound as if it was having to work hard at to get up the mountain.

Excellent gas mileage
Back up camera
Being able to connect your phone to the car
Voice commands
Large trunk
Cons
Not being able to back up very easily without the backup camera

There is really only one thing I dislike about this vehicle. It's the first one I've ever had that doesn't come standard with cruise control. Had I known that before leasing it, I probably would have leased something else. The agent was showing me the car and said "and this is where all your cruise control buttons are," so being that it's 2015, I just thought nothing of it. The good news, there is an ECO setting which keeps my gas mileage right around 35-40mpg, (although it would be more if I had cruise control.) The tank is on the smaller side, so it costs less to fill up (currently between $20-$25,) and lasts me abo... (more)
