2011 Kia Forte
Starting at $20,1791 Models In-Stock
Replacing the forgettable Spectra in 2010, the Forte looks like an old Acura TSX and actually handles, too. Consider it a Toyota Corolla with a pulse, or a decent alternative to a Honda Civic. The standard amenity list is long at this entry-level price, and includes Bluetooth and Sirius satellite radio.

The Forte sports crisp styling that gives the sedan an athletic shape. You don't have to look too closely to find resemblances to other small cars. The front end, for instance, looks similar to a Honda Civic coupe, and the Forte's taillights remind me of the Mitsubishi Lancer's.
The base LX sedan has standard 15-inch steel wheels, while the midlevel EX model gets 16-inch alloy rims. The performance-oriented SX trim, which features a sport suspension, has 17-inch alloy wheels and a rear spoiler. A sunroof is optional.
