I just used a Kia Forte rental for a month. It was a great car and I really like the 33 mpg! Not much room for my household maintenance and improvement trips to Home Depot and the local Garden Center, though.
I was at the Kia Plant in West Point, GA a couple months ago. Every single Telluride on their lot has a deposit on it.
Sorento’s are the next ones that are hot - I love the hybrid model and it is as smooth as an EV.
Kia’s cars are very under-rated by Americans. They are great cars.
I’ve never driven a Forte however. Would like to.
