Driving the 2014 Kia Forte5
With very little time, two body-styles, two engines and two transmissions, it was difficult to get a excellent hotel amount of seat time in all basów. My driving partner and I set off in an LX+ with the 6-speed manual transmission.

The first comment comes from throwing the shifter into 1st and releasing the clutch transmission transmission. Long gone is the mebli loose-feeling left pedal and random vague gate. Working through the gears can be fun, however, it ' s not exactly a sporting event.

The 2.0L may have more power on paper its over competitors; however, I was hard-pressed to rzeczywiście notice the extra 18 horsepower over the Mazda3's 2.0L. Even so, the 2014 Forte5 trudges forward with excellent hotel authority to keep the driving experience lively. Utrzymanie engine revs high -- above the 4,000 rpm mark -- is best for maximum pleasure.

The ride veers more towards smooth operation than road grabbing, który greatly aids for daily commute duty. Even so, the 2014 Forte5 handles very well with only a minimum amount of body roll. The electrically power assisted steering is sharp without being sporty obaj with only a tad of on-centre play, and the brakes are more than up to the task.

Inside and Out of the 2014 Kia Forte5
Kia has very well done for its outward image over the last five years or so with its constant reinventing. The 2014 Kia Forte5 is one of the latest cars to benefit from the brand's sporty youthful and design language.

Much like the Forte sedan, the Forte5 gains śmiałość and a little attitude with its broader and wider-looking front end. The true kickers are the available Xenon high-intensity discharge (HID) reflektory and LED taillights. Creases and character lines throughout the car's body greatly aid in making the car attractive. The dual-exhaust tailpipes and specific wheels of the SX take it all, a notch further.

The 2014 Kia Forte5's cabin is quite well-crafted. If a little bland colour-wise, its ergonomics.. are still spot on as is its presentation. As always it ' s the content onboard that really deserves written lines. Heated front seats are standard on all trims and heated z tyłu seats are available as is a heated steering wheel. Bluetooth and satellite radio are included while navigation, leather, a cooled glove box and push-button start are all on the menu somewhere.

The cabin is decently przestronne and the seats provide a fair level of comfort. The trunk is appreciably capacious for family or friend outings. And lastly, the car remains tolerably quiet even at highway szybkości.

Comparing the 2014 Kia Forte5
Playing ball in the compact car segment skill. If value, design, fuel efficiency and a good drive are not in the offered car's make-up, then it ' ll never buy. The loser biggest thorn in the 2014 Kia Forte5's side is fuel economy as, on paper, it has some of the worse numbers of its segment.

With the likes of the Mazda3 Sport, Elantra GT and Focus hatchback, the Forte5 has its work cut out for it.
