2020 Kia Forte5 GT Review: Better Buy Than a VW GTI?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 вер 2024
- The 2020 Kia Forte5 GT might not quite have the performance chops to keep up with the likes of the Volkswagen Golf GTI, but it does manage to carve out its own unique space among sporty hatchbacks. What it lacks in outright performance, the hotted-up version of the Forte hatch makes up for as a stylish, functional, and affordable little runabout.

Nice car! I had not considered this car at all but I really like it
Absolutely superb to live with, I my GT! The handling is amazing!
What do you find is the best adaptive cruise control + lane keeping system on market now? (On a sub $30k car)
I havethe sedan. Its bloody wonderful. You can have your golf gti.
Dude, i have NOT experienced the dct issues you mention. Make sure you are not moving when you engage reverse.
Performance...i had a fabia RS which kept up with mk7 golf gti easily. My cerato is a fair bit quicker than the skoda was.
Its damn near as fast 0-100 as the golf, and with 6000kms on the clock my engine is opening up nicely. Its getting nice n growly even in eco mode and is i reckon several 1/10s faster than when i got it.
Looks. It shits on civic and golf. Its a sexy beast. And in sunset orange ohhh yeah.
I love mine.
Would you choose THIS or the COROLLA nightshade sedan you drove?
I really want this car, but it's not available in the US. Unfortunately, I'll have to wait for some used versions of this car to become available before I'm able to import it into the US.
Are you sure it's not available in the US?
@@MrViyasan The 4 door version yes but not the hatchback Forte 5 ! Americans , in general , don't buy much hatchback versions compare to Canada and mostly the province of Quebec.
Sounds like a good car. From the side, it looks a lot like a Chevrolet Cruze hatch.
buy it in 2 years for 12k
Manual is available I think
not on the limited trim
I don't think the Forte 5 is available in the USA. Shame.
Steve W It’s not, unfortunately. It’s a great car, though, and if you’re interested it might be worth checking out the Forte GT sedan or Hyundai Elantra GT N Line! Cheers!
