CarGurus Analysis: 2017 Kia Forte
overall
Summary
With 787 currently listed for sale and an average price of $8,882.00, 26.4% of 2017 Kia Fortes for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2017 Kia Forte 3.25 / 5 stars.
47.5% of 2017 Forte models on CarGurus are accident free.
The 2017 Kia Forte features a refreshed design with a new front end, improved engine efficiency, and a sport trim option, making it a competitive choice in the compact sedan market.
Why it stands out
The 2017 Kia Forte distinguishes itself in the crowded compact sedan segment with a blend of style, efficiency, and value. This model year saw significant updates, including a restyled front end and the introduction of a more efficient 2.0-liter engine, which enhances fuel economy to an impressive 29 mpg city and 38 mpg highway. The Forte's spacious interior and trunk capacity make it a practical choice for families, while its competitive pricing allows buyers to access a well-equipped vehicle without breaking the bank. Although it faces tough competition from models like the Honda Civic and Mazda3, the Forte's combination of features, including available safety technologies and a comfortable ride, makes it appealing to a wide range of buyers. However, some may find the sport suspension in the S trim a bit stiff, which could affect ride comfort on rough roads.

So if you go with the forte and it says Apple car play or Android auto. Bring a cable and actually make sure! Ours said it and it didnt have it. We couldnt do a map upgrade and get it, cause our 2017 does not have navigation. If it did, the update wouldve worked.
