2019 Kia Forte LXS|Walk Around Video|In Depth Review|Test Drive

[@cargueone1971]

I just bought this exact color and trim 2 days ago. I very impressed and satisfied. I've been a Toyota buyer for about 30 years, since I've been 16 years old. To buy a Kia speaks volumes about how much they improved.

[@NeighborhoodCarReviews]

+Carlos Guevara They really have come a long way. Their lineup is really amazing, especially with the Stinger, Telluride and the K900.

[@HunterspikeGaming]

I was about to buy a Toyota this week as my first car (currently a student in college). But after watching all these reviews and hearing about all of their improvements as a brand, I decided to get this exact car in the same color too haha. I also love KIAs warranty compared to literally every other brand I checked out.

[@journeytheworld8848]

Kia ranks #5 behind Lexus Toyota and only a few more in the JD power and associates initial quality. Owned 8 Honda's in the last 22 years but their reliability is suspect now. Looked at a 2016 Kia Optima EX today and we fell in love.

[@acuraluver]

Just helped my fiancé get a 2017 Kia Forte 5 yesterday and she enjoys it a lot. She too had a Toyota which was totaled in an accident. She loves Toyota’s and Lexus but wen she saw the forte 5 she had to have it. I actually kinda like it too and I’m also a Toyota owner

[@laithmeister]

Carlos Guevara how’s the sports mode ?

I bought a new 2019 Kia forte, I drive 70.1 miles rounds trip to work and back home, I average 42 to 47 MPG, I fill up every Friday morning or Friday night once a week, 23 bucks to fill it, best vehicle for me so far.

[@alexotoo4149]

How much will it be sold for a used one at the moment?

[@Rigatoniheart]

Just bought this car in clear white. It's my second day driving it and I Absolutely love it.

[@lilyoda3885]

Have you had any issues with the cvt transmission?

[@killswarr07]

Good review! Thank you for taking the time. I find that extended videos of vehicle reviews are very informative. Especially when purchasing a new vehicle. Thanks again!!!!

[@NeighborhoodCarReviews]

Thank you so much for the comment and feedback! My goal is to give all pertinent information at the beginning. Research is exhaustive, but I feel it helps everyone, and to me, this can also serve as a sort of historical digital preservation for future viewers!

[@charlespresley8238]

I wonder how car is doing now 5-22-23

[@devynyates7291]

I own one of these, same color and model. Drives amazing and there's loads of features generally not included in other cars in the same class. I love it.

[@45acpP90]

I just bought a 2020 LXS. I really do enjoy it. It's a good car for the money.

[@knowbodiesfull5768]

I like to think of the 2019 Forte as "the baby Stinger.".

[@jamalludinibrahim1145]

After owning a Toyoto Corolla Altis 1.6L. Recently, I made a 180deg. turn around to purchase & own a Kia Cerato - K3 EX 1.6L what impressed me was in term of their Design, power, performance{proven}, comfort & workmanship. This model it's really stand above some of the Japanese Brand of it's class. Simply amazing, no regret.

[@danbublol]

Kia is Korean

[@ladyyuna2000]

Beautiful 2019 Kia Forte LXS and I love the color.

This is a better looking car than the A Class sedan, if you're not after the badge

[@Ash-xn8dg]

My husband & i bought this car & absolutely love it!! The screen looks way bigger though it looks kind of small here

[@Nowonderland]

Is this a good car to buy if you drive long distances? I am moving to a new state in a few weeks.

[@cvleigh1583]

Got rear ended by a truck in my little ‘09 Honda Civic last night. Hoping insurance totals it out so I can upgrade to one of these bad boys 😂

[@cvleigh1583]

Update: I got this same exact car in white! I’ve had it for 2 months now, and I’m in love with it!

[@AJ-sb1gd]

Cvleigh hey I have a question I got hit by a lady and it was her fault I’ve been saving for a car do you think this car performance, sound quality and feature wise is worth it I see a bunch for around 15k out the door with 10k down should be easy but

[@AJ-sb1gd]

What would be the MSRP on this car today??

I can’t wait to get one of these

[@DCash704]

Can someone tell me how much it takes to fill the gas tank up? Got one today same trim black love it already

[@NeighborhoodCarReviews]

14 gallons. I have that information in the video.

[@DCash704]

@@NeighborhoodCarReviews lol sorry my son doesnt let me get through videos much he wants to get on youtube himself. Thanks for the reply!

[@NeighborhoodCarReviews]

Oh! Haha! Totally understand!

[@Anonymous-gh8kt]

I fill up every Friday morning, great on gas, 45 miles to E, gas price $2.79 will cost me $32 to $33 to fill up, I drive it Monday through Friday no weekend, 67 miles round trip, 335 miles average 40 mpg everyday

[@davidm5707]

Good video. I would suggest shining the tires before taping, however. Also, it might be good to point out standard features not common to the segment. Including, 8" touchscreen, and the dual-zone climate control. I don't know of many cars in this segment that offer those on base models. Also, driving dynamics: how is the IVT on the road? Handling? Ride quality? MPG?

[@cedric182]

David M calm down.

[@Micdundee86]

He mentioned the mpg

[@alexotoo4149]

How much do u think I can get this car used one at the moment?

[@xNevikKx]

It's an IVT, but it can be shifted manually??

[@jrob1997]

Does this model have uvo

[@SamE3100]

How do you turn off passenger airbag light

[@TravellLove]

Oh Good to see my fellow Bloomingtonian video :)

[@NeighborhoodCarReviews]

Yeah! I'm all over, but I work in Bloomington, so it's easy. I live in Martinsville, so I film there, Indy and the surrounding areas. Love the Maserati dealer up north in Carmel. I have tons of new stuff coming! Subscribe if you haven't yet!

I have it and noticed it does not have power heated side mirrors. You said it does. Can you confirm if I am missing something?

I have it too and mine doesn't either.

No. This Forte was not equipped with a sunroof. It is available as an option, however.

Yes they come with the car but that's extra

I had the 2015 Kia Forte LX model. Got rear ended into another car. Back & front destroyed. Dude didn’t have insurance, hoping my insurance compensates me so I can get this version.

[@Badgallbribri]

I have in dark grey ❄️😅

[@SoonerMikeD]

Do you cover stuff like performance, ride impression, handling, road noise, stereo sound quality, seat comfort somewhere else? 🤔

[@NeighborhoodCarReviews]

Michael Liston That’s actually a great question. I do cover performance specs as far as instrumented road test reports usually by Car and Driver or Motor Trend Magazine, since they’re published. However, things like ride quality, stereo sound quality and seat comfort levels are all subjective and my opinion may not reflect other opinions. I try to keep bias and subjective opinions out of my videos and provide only facts based on the vehicle. There are a lot of reviewers that do include that, but I have decided not to include them, because I want my videos to be unbiased and opinion-free.

[@MarkCucchiara]

Where is the test drive?

[@NeighborhoodCarReviews]

Well, the test drive clips are dispersed throughout the video. I also have a dedicated separate video that’s solely test drive: kzbin.info/www/bejne/opqwp5KBe89oo7M

[@ShantiDctHenry]

Great video.

[@markarnold798]

That's one beautiful car

Very nice but the 2021 Nissan Versa base turn gives you way more all of their safety features plus automatic rear breaking including push button start
