True. I've tested drive the Forte and Elantra. Both use the same CVT and it replicates the shifts of an auto transmission better than a Civic. Civic wins big time though when it comes for handling, confort, interior space.

1.5 turbo is optional engine in Civic. You need to compare 2.0 base engine between these two cars.

Toyota dealership tried to convince me that Toyota's hold value better. But they never mentioned that Toyota's are thousands of dollars more than Kia's. And Kia's hold value pretty well up here in Canada. So it comes down to personal budgets and preferences. I like Kia Forte for its styling and what not. The only drawback is REAR SUSPENSION.

You shouldn’t buy any car brand new and sell it in 5 years. Leasing would make more sense then. If your not gonna keep you’re car for closer to ten years then purchasing a vehicle is not economically smart. The reasons why Hyundai/Kia give such good warranties is to offset the low resale value. Hence the reasoning of keeping a purchased vehicle for that length of time to get actual value out of it. It’s very simple, that’s not opinion based conjecture, it’s the fact of the matter.

Jodi Lai seems to have a serious dislike for the Honda Brand and she has found either an ally or a lackey in Sebastien. I can't think of a single review she's done that doesn't do some kind of backhanded dig at Honda in some way. She starts off by saying "I'm usually quick to criticize the Honda Civic style... It's not the kind of car you want to get to stand out". She then says the Forte is like a little Stinger (a pretty aggressively styled car) and immediately about faces by saying that the Civic's to too aggro (a gaming term for aggressive). The Civic 1.5L turbo has 174 HP/162 LB-FT/36 MPG Kia's 2.0 Non-turbo has 147 HP/132 LB-FT/34 MPG... Sebastien grudgingly says "overall this LOOKS like a win for the Civic". Overall? in every aspect, the Civic does better. Jodi says "I've said it before and I'll say it again the Honda Civic has a very busy interior (although the Civic infotainment/HVAC system has 12 buttons & 3 dials while the Kia has 14 buttons and 4 dials). She and Sebastien say the word "busy" 4 more times when describing the Civic interior then once again backhandedly say "but (the Civic) does a very good job sneaking in the cheaper materials (suggesting is trying to hide how cheap their cars are, while ignoring that their statement also suggests it has mostly nice materials)". less than a minute later they acknowledge that the Kia interiors downfall is that "it ALL looks kind of cheap" finishing up with "I'd never call the Civic's interior bad but...(the cheap-looking Kia Forte's is better)". They blow through mentioning that Honda Sensing has safety 6 features (while calling one of those features "stupid") while taking their time to highlight that Kia has (only) 4 safety features (but none of them are stupid). The features the Kia is missing are "a bit of a disadvantage". They try really hard to be impartial but by actively avoiding terms like "class-leading", "Best in Class" or "segment leader' while saying that the Kia is everything you should expect in the segment and is $2000 less. If you could pay $2000 more and have the best in class everyone would do it. Autoguide please take Jodi Lai off of reviewing Honda's.

you bet kia's 1.6 turbo fixes all the whines about engine power. civic has nothing to say against forte/forte5 GT

Yep, when the turbo fries, the honda is totally on top. Clear win for honda because of 2 MPH and a few more horses. You will pay now or pay later with a turbo in general.

Compact car rating usa has the mazda 3 and kia forte at the same rating which i thing is 8.7 and the civic at 8.6. Not me compact car rating not me ok.

Campare Kia Gt with 2 litre motor and it has turbo than the price would be closer and the drive much better then Honda

Kia forte is the best

Forte seems more conservative, and Civic seems too busy

Stop saying Busy, you’re making me Dizzy.

How is the civic coupe NOT the best looking of the bunch???

I disagree with this video in SOOO many ways! Any issue with Civic seemed to be catastrophic and sub-par! Busy interior? Busy exterior? That's for a reason, ATTENTION TO DETAIL! Civics are just more premium and substantive than Kia. Honda caters to a large demographic with the hatch, sedan, coupes; they offer everything from a base model to a type R. I'd like to see either of these cars at 100,000 miles or 200,000 miles, even with Honda's turbo. Note, this was a bold and very recent move to use a GDI turbo. Sure, there may be some oil dilution, but that's typical of GDI engines. CHANGE YOUR OIL and boom - problems detoured. A new type of oil will also hit the markets next year that will also help with dilution. Nobody mentioned RESALE VALUE! Again, let's look at resale values in 5 years of ownership. The Civic may be more expensive, but in turn you are getting comfort, reliability, safety, resale value that can't be matched. Also, this generation Civic came out about four or five years ago, a new generation should be rolling out in a few years anyway. This will help Civic maintain a position it has had and will have for years to come. Kias are good cars, Hondas are GREAT cars. The Civic has yet to meet it's match. Kelley Blue Book and Consumer Reports offer better, more accurate car information.

1:22 "Under the hood of the Civic is the very impressive 1.5 liter engine" Very impressive? Seriously? After all the oil dilution bullshit that goes with it??

Well I like a Busy' interior and a Busy' styling on the front end, and all the functions to keep one Busy' and not bored with a bland style exterior or interior of many other car models. I like the Civic a lot

@justen ramirez Lackey: my guess is you’re in a Kia dealership

If I was looking to buy a new vehicle in this segment, I would give the Kia Forte some serious consideration. I prefer its overall styling; both exterior and interior. The asking price is significantly lower and comes with a longer standard warranty. From what I've heard in other reviews the new Kia iCVT seems to perform better than most competitors and I would expect much fewer long-term issues from the Forte's conventional multi-port, naturally aspirated engine versus the lower displacement, direct-injected, turbocharged motor in the Civic.

Honda civic car is SUPER

Busy? Car “critics” and “reviewers” are busy. Not in a good way.

they definitely need a vtec turbo si

The vtec engine is very common already nowadays

Feels like a Honda Civic infomercial. Kia is cheaper and is generally way more willing to discount than is Honda. At this car segment pricepoint price actually matters way more than was emphasized in this video

Also if you want a car for a long time avoid turbos.

To the guy, you don't need to talk so fast. It's like he's nervous and just wants to get through his part as soon as possible.

So you’re telling me the Honda Civic which won comparisons against the highly anticipated 2020 Mazda 3 and the better than ever 2020 Corolla lost to the Kia Forte? The epitome of economy compact cars nowadays? Y’all really don’t know how to hide a glorified paid advertisement, first the Acura RDX vs Infiniti QX50 and now this..... it’s a shame what Autoguide has become.
