hey guys... any one already driving this Forte or any previous kIA? My wife is complaining about me committing to this car as its track record is not good in...

the styling of the car is great,if the engineers can look into creating a more fuel-efficient car, that would be the best.

currently car fc is ard 10l/100km

lianamaster SG

Hmm... not very fuel efficient as I think it is....

nightsky87 SG

10km/l is really nothing special.. In fact if it's the 1.6, that's considered bad..

Yea.... KIA can't be perfect in all aspects...

u have to keep in mind that, in SX guise at least, it has to move heavy 17" wheels.. It has to mean something..

nightsky87 SG

That's true that's true. Oh well, you can't get the best of all worlds..

Hi citymax,

could it be due to your driving style? and is it on running-in period? will have better fc when change to fully synthetic engine oil. I having lots of bro in the kia club commenting that they getting 14 - 15km/litre FC.. so basically.. i duno how hard you drive lar.. so i cannot comment.. But i would believe yours is an isolate case..

lianamaster SG

FC this kind of thing.... pretty subjective... depends on your driving habits.

Looks like solid car, but its a kia, sorry its a stigma.

Hi citymax,

hi p228,

i not drivinf the new cerato forte, its juz a feedback from my friend who juz bought the car. i ask him the same question u ask me, i believe is up to individual.

Some drives 80km/h will get 15km/l

Some drives 100km/h will onli get 10km/l

small speed difference do make a great impact on the fuel comsuption, irregardless what car u drive.always the same theory.

nOrmalbOi SG

That's true that's true. Oh well, you can't get the best of all worlds..

can! go change to 17" prodrives FC confirm improve!

the money u would originally pay to Esso/Shell/Caltex would divert to Prodrive lol

You are a brand whore!!

In the current economy, it pays to be a little more prudent..

Hi nOrmalbOi!

I'm not a brand whore, okie!!! Just that out of 10 ppl I hv spoken to... 9 of them against me getting KIA. Actually, I can get quite a gd discount if I buy KIA. I was looking at the 2L sport version with sunroof and it was within my budget... But even my buddy who is in the car industry told me to give it a miss!

Nevertheless, it has its plus points. But it just that I have chosen to move on...
