What I have to say about the 2012 Kia Forte: Although there is better Compact cars, the Kia Forte still remains a good one just not the best. There is a fair amount of technology and room in this car and a well appointed interior, but again just not the best. The good news is that the Kia Forte is a budget car so they are fairly cheap. Power is adequate. Although Cars like the Hyundai Elantra and Chevy Cruze are better though. Style isn't really a Strong Point either. Competitors: Hyundai Elantra, Ford Focus, Chevy Cruze, Volkswagen Jetta,
