Why it stands out

The 2023 Kia Forte stands out in the compact sedan class by delivering strong value without feeling like a stripped-down bargain. It offers more for the money than its rivals, while still aiming to preserve quality and performance, which makes it an appealing all-around choice for buyers who want practicality without giving up too much refinement. The Forte also has a manual transmission available, which adds to its appeal for drivers who still want a more involved experience.

Its strengths are balanced by a few clear drawbacks. The base engine is described as underwhelming, so buyers looking for lively acceleration may want to temper expectations. It also carries lower-than-average crash test scores, which is an important consideration in a segment where safety matters a great deal. Even so, the 2023 Kia Forte remains distinctive because it combines comfort, value, and a solid overall package in a very competitive class.
