There was once a time when buying Asian cars meant sacrificing comfort and legroom and the risk of having a lot of problems in the future. This image was established when Asian car manufacturers first attempted to enter the US automobile market and were flooded with complaints about engine problems and poor overall performance. Since then, however, Asian car manufacturers have improved greatly, and are now considered as some of the more trusted brands by Americans.

One of the most well known Asian car manufacturers is Kia Motors. Though it faced marketing problems back in the day for its cars’ bland designs and lack of features, Kia has gained resurgence in the US car market. This was helped along by Peter Schreyer, the same guy that designed the Audi TT, and who is now spearheading the Kia design revolution. One of the new masterpieces that just rolled off Kia’s assembly line is the Kia Forte.

The Kia Forte comes in both sedan and coupe body styles and is reminiscent of the Maserati BiTurbo Coupe that was released in the late 1990s. For those who don’t remember the BiTurbo, think of a more butch Honda Civic coupe and you’re in the ballpark of how cool this car is. Reviews of the Kia Forte can all be boiled down to the idea that the car has lines that remind you of a finely-tailored suit.

As mentioned above, earlier Kia vehicles were notorious for their lack of features and for their boring designs, but these problems have all been removed from the Kia Forte. Though buying a Korean car in the early days meant constantly apologizing to your friends for the lack of air conditioning or radio, with the Kia Forte, you have all these features and more. The interior of the Forte might remind drivers of VW vehicles.

Indianapolis car dealers would also point out the fact that the Kia Forte, though compact, has a lot of power. The new Kia Forte boasts a 2-liter 4-cylinder engine with 156 horsepower. If that isn’t enough for you, the Forte SX has a class-leading 173 horsepower capability.

Kia Indianapolis dealership personnel will also tell you that the Kia Forte is considered very fuel efficient. The Forte is rated at 25mpg in the city, and 34 on the highway. The Fort SX, on the other hand, does 22mpg in the city, and 32 on the highway.

If you don’t thing the Kia Forte is the right car for you, you can take a look at the other cars like the Kia Soul Indianapolis dealerships have. For more information, you can visit thecarconnection.com/overview/kia_forte_2012 or KIASoulReviews.org.
