2012 KIA FORTE Review
2012 KIA FORTE Review - The KIA FORTE awarded as “TOP SAFETY PICK” of this 2011. The Kia FORTE 2012 received ratings of "Good" and in front, side, rear and rollover impact crash tests amazing those safety-minded buyers will surely appreciate. The Kia Forte Koup 2012 is a relatively new entrant to the affordable small cars market, but it is one that arrived with significant buzz and excitement.
The 2012 Kia Forte Koup promises to step up its game in what is already a peppy little vehicle. Previously powered by either a 2.0L or 2.4L inline 4-liter, the Forte Koup pushes out 156 and 173 hp. A turbocharged version is likely to top the 200hp marker if Kia manages to keep the engine and vehicle as light as they currently are.
2012 KIA FORTE Review has been doing well in the U.S. market against other small cars, managing to increase its market share even in a down economy. Competition includes the Mazada3 which is more fun to drive along with the Volkswagen Rabbit, but neither of which have offered the same fuel efficiency as the Forte. The promise of a hybrid version of the Koup in 2012 will further widen the gap in fuel efficiency and the turbocharged version will serve to bring this car more in line with the Volkswagen GTI or Honda Civic as far as power and performance are concerned.
