Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2023 Kia Forte 4.57 / 5 stars.
83.6% of 2023 Forte models on CarGurus are accident free.
The 2023 Kia Forte stands out for its stylish design, impressive fuel economy, and comfortable ride, making it a reliable and fun-to-drive compact sedan.
Why it stands out
The 2023 Kia Forte distinguishes itself in the competitive compact sedan market by offering exceptional value for money without compromising on quality or performance. With a starting price of $20,815, it is one of the more affordable options available, and it provides a generous 10-year/100,000-mile warranty, which is a significant draw for budget-conscious buyers. The Forte is equipped with two engine options, including a spirited 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder in the GT trim, which delivers 201 horsepower and a sport-tuned suspension for those seeking a more engaging driving experience.
While the base engine may feel underwhelming to some, the overall ride quality remains comfortable, and the interior is well-designed with user-friendly controls. The Forte also boasts a commendable 83.6% accident-free rate, enhancing its appeal as a reliable choice. However, potential buyers should be aware of its lower-than-average crash test scores, which may be a consideration for safety-conscious shoppers. Overall, the 2023 Kia Forte is a solid contender in its class, balancing affordability, comfort, and performance.

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.
