The 23 also does come with a sport mode that makes acceleration not to bad.

This car is way better than you are leading us to believe. I have a 21 Rio and it is an amazing car and I would buy it again.. I may think about moving up to the LX S just because I could use a little more room. I love the way the Rio drives and handles and it is the perfect city car that does very well on the hi way and for under $20,000 if no dealer markup.

check with your insurance company if they will cover a 2022. mine wouldn’t give me full coverage and i couldn’t find one for a decent price that offers full coverage with the whole car stealing issue with Kia’s and Hyundai’s. just be sure you get full coverage if you want it on your new car! helped me decide to get the 2023 forte LXS rather then a 2020 elantra!

Test drove a 2022 GT-Line and it was a great little car for the money. Around town in a just about perfect but once I got on the freeway the ride was a bit choppier than I like plus the road noise was a bit high. Test drive a used 2019 VW Jetta shortly after and it was quieter and smoother on the freeway. Didn't get either one though.

The LXS cost 500 dollar more but the LX gives you 2 more gallons per mile, not sure why but that is enough difference for me to pick the LX.
@CarDietrich Жыл бұрын
The difference in MPG is due to the difference in wheel size. The bigger rims on the LXS are heavier so less MPG
@davila1978 Жыл бұрын
@@CarDietrich thanks, i could never figure out the reason, I bought a new 2021 forte FE instead of LXS due to the 2 extra miles per gallon with gas prices so high.

Do your oil changes on time and keep all the receipts just in case it ever needs a warranty repair under the 10 year/100k warranty. It should be fine

The LXS does include standard cruise control, but if you want the Smart (adaptive) cruise control you have to step up to a higher trim level.

I bought one of the LXS models and have been getting 44 mpg during my commute to work. I feel that if people are looking at this car wanting a powerful and fast car, they are looking at the wrong car. They need to be at a higher price point. I needed a commute car and have been very happy with this car.
