KIA K3 (Forte/ Cerato) needs a virtues as a family car rather than a performance car. So with this level of performance K3 showed to us, it's hard to feel regret with KIA K3 while driving. Driving stability at high speed was quite good.

However, when pass a bumpy road at high speed, K3 behaved a little unstable. But it's not a serious problem because this phenomenon occurs with every compact sedans.

I'd like to praise the K3 suspension which distribute the impact coming from rear of the car so smoothly even though torsion beam type of suspension is applied to K3.

Overall, K3 is designed to provide a smooth and gentle ride, but it does not feel like lying on a waterbed. When you drive some where with your family, K3 will allow your family to enjoy a comfortable journey.
