2010 Kia Forte 4 cylinder has no power
We traded in a 2005 Kia Spectra with 222,000 miles on it for a 2010 Kia Forte 4 cylinder and are very disapointed in the performance of the car. It shifts through all of the four speeds in the transmission very fast to the point it looses power after it shifts into third gear , we have to almost floor it ti get it back up to speed. It is also very noisy when you first crank it up --sounds like a cutlass I have years ago with 110,000 miles on it. Have taken it back to the Kia Dealer …
Kia Forte EX
So far I love it. Get 36-38 mpg on highway. Pickup in traffic is great even with the small engine. Handling is also just fine and very responsive. I travel 118 miles per day. In 4 months, I have 11400 miles on the car and have had no problem. It is comfortable yet compact. I love the hands free blue tooth. When it is time to trade the other vehicle I will look at a Kia again. Hoping to get 200,000+ miles on the Forte.
Forte SX
I have a Forte SX...I think it stands for SUX because it really sux the gas! It is not fuel efficient...the on board computer almost always shows an average 21.6 miles to the gallon. It doesn't even have 5K miles on it yet. It doesn't handle nicely in the snow either because of the skinny tires, I'm afraid to drive it when it's snowing. I am really disappointed with it. I switched from a Hyundai Elantra to this? Watwuz I thinking?
Very Pleased
I have now driven the 4 cyl sedan 4000 miles. Mixed mileage for my commute is 34 mpg. Plenty of headroom for my 6'2" frame. It accelerates well and rides acceptably. I am glad that we purchased this vehicle and would recommend it to commuters. I have saved $$$ in gasoline.
