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.
