CarGurus Analysis: 2023 Kia Forte
overall
Summary
With 4,615 currently listed for sale and an average price of $18,766.00, 33.9% of 2023 Kia Fortes for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2023 Kia Forte 4.57 / 5 stars and CarGurus experts gave it a 6.33 / 10.
83.3% of 2023 Forte models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2023 Kia Forte stands out in the compact sedan class by delivering strong value without feeling like a bare-bones budget pick. It offers more for the money than many rivals, while still aiming to preserve quality and performance, which makes it an appealing all-around choice for shoppers who want practicality without giving up too much refinement.
Its strengths are straightforward: it is comfortable, and a manual transmission is available. Those traits help give the Forte a broader appeal than many economy-minded sedans. At the same time, it is not without drawbacks, as its base engine is described as underwhelming and its crash test scores are lower than average. Even so, the Forte’s combination of value and everyday usability is what makes it distinctive.

Good value, feels a little cheap but it’s totally understandable since it is the base model. Feels great also for tall people, enough leg room even in the back. Trunk is spacious.

I compared this car to the Toyota corrola and landed on the forte because I think it provides more features and value, including the 100k mile warranty.
