2010 Kia Forte
The all-new Forte is replacing Kia's best-seller, the Spectra, in the company's lineup for 2010. Can this smartly designed sedan grab more market share from the likes of the Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, Mazda3, Chevy Cobalt and Ford Focus than its highly popular predecessor? It's a tall order, but we believe the Forte has the tools to pull it off. Attributes like sleek body lines, an athletic powertrain, outstanding fuel economy and an attractive price tag all point to success.
