2017 Kia Forte Reviews, Pricing & Specs













































































































What owners say
Smooth ride and tons of gitty_up power. Very roomy inside. Handles well.
July 4, 2021OK car, but tail lights keep going out and a headlight just went out.
September 8, 2022So if you go with the forte and it says Apple car play or Android auto. Bring a cable and actually make sure! Ours said it and it didnt have it. We couldnt do a map upgrade and get it, cause our 2017 does not have navigation. If it did, the update wouldve worked.

September 3, 2020This is my second Kia and it will be my last! Got the Forte and the dim lights stopped working, just like a LOT of other Fortes! So dangerous but no recall????????????????
