Summary
With 1,482 currently listed for sale and an average price of $12,742.00, 30.2% of 2020 Kia Fortes for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.

Why it stands out
The 2020 Kia Forte stands out as an affordable compact sedan that delivers a lot of the appeal buyers usually expect from pricier cars. It is described as priced like a compact car while offering nearly as much room as a midsize sedan, and the turbocharged Forte GT brings the performance typical of an entry-level sport sedan. That combination makes it an appealing choice for drivers who want something practical but still engaging.
Its strengths also include stylish design, excellent value for money, and premium interior materials. The car’s German-influenced tuning is presented as a key part of what makes the Forte GT feel like a serious driver’s car, and it is characterized as terrific fun to drive. At the same time, the base engine is called underwhelming, so buyers looking at the Forte for its everyday value may want to keep expectations in check if they are not choosing the turbocharged version.

I have the LXS model, this is loaded with very feature from Collison avoidance to lane assistance. Smart mode gets 41 mpg while sport mode provides nice performance at the cost of 21 mpg. Its like I have 2 cars in 1 and if the emblem said Honda or Toyota I would have easily spent 10k more

The car is comfortable and moves well. The lack of fast acceleration is noticeable, but the handling is superb.

Oh wow, I love this car! the forte GT model has everything you would want in a car at a fantastic price and the warranty is out of this world Kia has one of the best there is to offer. The car handles extremely well and has more speed than you really need at times and if your just a average driver that is ok your the pick up speed in any mode is great but the sport is like a rocket. I also love the sound system in this car excellent crisp sound. and the comfort of the seats are very relaxing and heated as well as cooled. you have great visibility with plenty of windows to avoid the blind spots. the out side is stunning with the color contras mine is black and red very sexy. Over all i would recommend this car as of now but I only had it for a week and so far Im in love I find my self running to the store way out of my way for no reason at all just to sit in it and listen to the music and drive.

Unbelievable value. My model is the 2020 Forte GT DCT w/GT2 package. Very peppy engine that has a lot of energy. Endless safety features. Overall style is very impressive and gets compliments from everyone. Its very fun to drive. The sport exhaust sounds amazing and the turbo whistles everytime you pull away.
