Say what you will but Kia produces a great and reliable product. I bought a 2017 Kia Forte and I love it. The warranty is unbeatable and the car is fun to drive. For the money I could not find a better product and I could not be happier.
Recently bought a 2017 kia forte5 ex and I am in love dude
How’s it running? I’m looking to buy
It's worth looking into to me. At least it doesn't have an unreliable CVT like the Corolla.
I bought a 2017 Kia Forte. I did my research. For it's class this car is a great value for what it is and what you get. The new engine gets better mpg than the 1.8 did. I have driven my forte about 400 miles and I have zero complaints. I was sceptical because it was a Kia. I have never owned a Kia before. But when I inspected the car closely I was impressed with the workmanship quality. My Kia is quite so far dependable and it is fun to drive in sport mode. For the money I spent and in comparison to other makes in this class I am positive I made a good decision. Kia has come a long way and their product reflects this. On the highway I am getting nearly 40 mpg and in town an impressive 36.9 mpg. The car rides nice and handles well. Excellent 4 wheel disc brakes and the steering is tight and responsive. I find the interior to be above scale in what you would normally expect in a car in this price range. The onboard electronics are simple to use and I was able to pair my phone in less than 2 minutes. The sound system is acceptable for this class and the cruise control works wonderfully. To be sure on a scale of 1 to 10. 10 being best I would give the Kia Forte a solid 9. I drove numerous other makes in this class and decided on a Forte because of the overall value and ammenites that come on this car. There are things I think they could have improved upon. The aluminum cast wheels for example could have a bit more style. The electroinics cluster could have been laid out a bit more ergonomically, but it is not bad. I am pleased with my purchase thus far and I feel confident about the car over all.

Cars manufacturers need to make a new model every 10 years, NOT each and every year. In the past, there were times when people had to wait in line to order a car. There is, as we speak, millions of unsold cars and the market are bombarded with new ones coming in. In the past car makers produced on an "as ordered basis", and consumers used to line up to place orders. Nowadays, the slogan is the "pizza place" style: "Buy One, Get One Free". The days you visit the coffee shop for donuts and coffee have been replaced by the day at the car dealership. They have every variety of coffee imaginable, from espresso to cappuccino including cold sandwiches and fruits. There is no shortage of car dealerships in any city, in fact, new car dealers are popping out like mushrooms everywhere. Another disaster is approaching at fast speed: China's electric cars are joining the wild mushrooms as millions of them are currently in production and additional millions in the process of being manufactured. Another funny situation, the car remote starter starts not only your own car but a group of cars in the same parking lot, all at once; and all cars' lights start flashing like Christmas trees. Cars keep getting smaller and further smaller with lower roofs. This is unreal! You got to be short and petite to fit into these cars. God forbid, you get into an accident, you're really screwed, they have to cut off your legs to get you out, What a disastrous situation! There is in some areas flee markets or farmers markets, soon we will see (Cars flee markets). In another video comments section, someone wrote: "Sent them to the third world countries who don't manufacture cars such as the USA OR CANADA. How the people around the world learn so fast that the General Motors closed down in Oshawa Ontario or other car manufactures in the USA such as Detroit, Ohio, Michigan, Oakville, Maryland, many of which moved to Mexico and Brazil. In the meantime the 2019 General Motors strike with the walkout of 48,000 United Automobile Workers from some 50 plants in the United States demanded increased job security, the gateway for temporary workers to become permanent, better pay, and retaining healthcare benefits. Meanwhile, the U.S. automotive industry is facing incredibly fierce global competition from other car companies, such as Toyota, Volkswagen, Honda and a host of other car manufacturers, Nissan, Suzuki, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Isuzu, Kawasaki, Yamaha, and Mitsuoka, Audi, Porsche, Alpina, Fiat, Dacia, Moskvitch, Yo-Mobile, Advanced Automotive, CT&T United, Volvo, and thousands more. Go to automobile manufacturers around the world on Wikipedia. Global auto manufacturers flee to Mexico and other emerging countries due to their cost advantage, as hourly wages in Brazil, China, India, Pakistan, etc. are much lower than in developed countries. Mexico has many advantages for auto manufacturing due to many factors including the cheap labor, railroad, and road transport links and close proximity to the US. The story about the car overproduction is not ending here, however, in another comment, someone suggested that the US government purchases all the excess inventory and sells for $ 1 for legal purposes to the homeless people with first in line all war veterans who are starving to death and sleeping on the street all over America.
