Owner's Talk : 2011 KIA Forte Coup




Hi. I am glad to show my car up here. ^^ The most big merit of KIA forte is..the light weight. It weighs only 1,160kg! and it enable clumsy driver to enjoy sports driving even in low speed. Actually, KIA Forte, gives an illusion of being in sports car with the light weight and the sport car looking shape, is not the fast car at all. She spurt 115hp from front wheels. In spite of it's low power, KIA Forte is fun to drive. It is true.
