Miles Overview
The Forte is Kia's compact sedan, a direct rival to the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla of its day. It's a comfortable commuter that feels smooth and quiet, though it can feel a bit sluggish when you need to pass at highway speeds. The cabin is roomy for a compact, with a surprisingly large trunk and easy entry and exit, though some interior materials feel cheap. Owners report mostly trouble-free miles, but a few have dealt with starter issues and rust spots forming early on. The SX is the sporty one, with a larger engine and sharper handling than the EX, for drivers who want a bit more fun from their compact. Its 2.4L I4 makes 173 horsepower and pairs with a five-speed automatic, giving it noticeably more punch than the base car while still returning 26 mpg combined. The SX also got sport-tuned suspension and larger wheels, which tighten up cornering but make the ride a bit firmer over rough pavement.
