How old is the 2015 Kia Forte LX?
We’ve had the 2015 Kia for 6 years now. An LX base package, automatic transmission. We wanted a hatchback, but the bigger engine that comes with it uses more fuel. The standard 1.8 has more than ample power everywhere, and is an outstanding match for the transmission.

Finally, given KIA’s incentivized sales approach, there is no way not to get a good deal.

What are the cons of a Kia Forte?
CONS 1. Wind noise, especially on the highway (seems to be a problem with KIAs) 2. Poor city stop and go mileage. Maybe it’s because I’m always taking very short trips with lots of traffic lights where I accelerate briskly?
