2018 Kia Forte LX Review
CarGurus
https://www.cargurus.com
It was a rental car, not bad as I like the Nissan as a previous owner. Very solid well built car. vs2018 Nissan Sentra
2018 Kia Forte LX winning categories:
Power
Ranked 2018 Nissan Sentra worse.
"The Forte has about 40 horsepower more than the Sentra and gets better economy. Having that power on tap to pass is much safer and you dont eat up all your gas. Win-win."
Front Seats
Ranked 2018 Nissan Sentra worse.
"Im 62, better leg room, better lumbar support. The Forte seat fits the contour of a full sized person better."
Family Car
Ranked 2018 Nissan Sentra worse.
"Value, mpg was better, great for my grandkids, rear seats have a nice drop down and can lay split or entire back folds down for a longer item to be carried in the trunk."
Value
Ranked 2018 Nissan Sentra worse.
"The quoted Sentra didnt have power windows and high end stereo display options. I saved several hundred dollars, got 40 more horses and proved that the fuel economy was better by at least 5MPG so far. And then you compare the warranty and decide quickly that the Forte is easily the best value."

2018 Kia Forte S Review
CarGurus
https://www.cargurus.com
In the last 6 years I have leased an Accord LX, Civic LX, Passat SEL Premium & Jetta SEL. This is my first Kia. The Forte is basically a blend of all of the above - small but solid car - with good transmission/suspension select modes (ECO, NORM, SPORT), Apple Car Play / Android Auto are what sets this car apart. The doors close with a solid thunk. The Civic and Jetta were tinny & interiors were noisy. The Passat SEL PREM was the nicest but the 2.5L was terrible in power for a 32K car. This 18 Forte LXS (LX with Popular & S features like 16 alloys minus Tech) is my favorite commuter car and sons first car. I normally drive a 2018 Durango SRT but this Forte really helps me save on gas $ - averaging at least 27-30 mpg - 22-24 mixed. Love this car! vs2018 Volkswagen Jetta 1.8T SEL FWD
2018 Kia Forte S winning categories:
Handling
Ranked 2018 Volkswagen Jetta 1.8T SEL FWD worse.
"Just a more solid ride and has selectable transmission and suspension. Sport mode is the key. Older Jetta just doesnt seem to handle as well and is louder and has more road noise. Youd expect the SEL model would be nicer / quieter. "
Value
Ranked 2018 Volkswagen Jetta 1.8T SEL FWD worse.
"Selectable transmission and suspension. Apple Car Play/Android Auto. Ride is much more solid and quieter. Sport mode handles better. " |
