Kia Forte is Naza Forte in Malaysia

[Kelpie]

Some not-so-nice comments from New Sunday Times (06 December 2009) on the Naza Forte:

 

"The 17" wheels, however, made the ride a bit harsh on rutted sufaces (the lower specced EX comes with more comfortable 15" wheels).

 

We noticed that the Forte nose-dived quite a bit, and if one is not careful, the rear can easily step out.

 

Lifting the right foot in mid-corner, the tail with its torsion-beam suspension started to wag like a puppy.

 

Throw in the light steering and even the best driver will not do anything daring on a wet day with a Forte.

 

Of course, traction control was there to keep things in check but the best is that you keep the steering straight while braking and it should be okay."

 

Price: RM81,800 (1.6SX) OTR with insurance.
