The Forte offers a little something for everyone. There’s a practical 4-door sedan, an even more practical hatchback, and a sporty 2-door. It also offers plenty of high tech features, and a very generous warranty.
While the Forte sedan, hatchback and 2-door Koup look sporty, enthusiasts will note that the looks can be deceiving. Also, despite low base prices, the Forte’s price escalates quickly as you add options, making them not quite the bargain their starting prices might suggest.
