Kia Forte Koup 1.6 Review: Koup-ing well
For a long time now, the car market had been without an affordable coupe. Things are about to change though thanks to Kia’s new Forte Koup.

What we like:
Affordable price for a stylish and well-equipped package.
What we dislike:
Lack of performance.
The Koup will set you back (just) $60,999, a real bargain considering that it’s a very stylish coupe with loads of standard kit. It’s not a sporty drive though so boy racers ought to look elsewhere. With the Koup, it looks like Kia is on the up once again.
