AUTO: Kia Forte (review)

 Today is dropped by KIA Showroom in sumulong highway Marikina. Though i don't have any plans of buying a brand new car, i did an inquiry about the features, specifications and other details about the newest car model of KIA on the sedan line.

KIA Forte is a sedan passenger type car suitable for a small family or a bachelor. The model is released this year only (2013)

My inspection on the unit is basically on the inside features only as i am not familiar with the engine specifications. I just inquired about the fuel consumption of the Forte, it is 12-14km/L. Fuel efficient indeed. This section of the car is one of the most important for me as it will have a long term effect on the user.

The pictures on the brochures might seem exaggerated so i did an actual image of the display unit in the showroom.




There are only 3 colors available - red, black, and silver



 THE INTERIOR DETAILS

The dashboard with LED illumination.

Wiper control



Steering wheel is the standard one. I mean, no radio controls like the other brand. There is airbag though.


The Radio panel.CD slot, radio, aircon control, and the usual controls commonly found at the center console.



This unit is an automatic transmission and convertible to manual mode to those drivers who wants speed. There are two cupholders also for your drinks.


The top head inside light with storage for your sunglasses

The driver seat door panel. Automatic windows on all sides and automatic mirror controller as well.

The back seat is spacious, i might say.Just the right legroom.

The back seat door panel. With window controller and individual speakers for the radio/music.


There is only one variant on this model FORTE 1.6L LX GAS Automatic 6-speed dual CVVT.
Unit price: php838,000.00
Available colors: red, black and silver

As a summary, i can say that this unit is an ordinary one. No special features that can differentiate from other brands of the same category.
