First Drive: 2010 Kia Forte Koup
2010 Kia Forte Koup - First Drive Review - Automobile Magazine
Can Kia's first coupe--the 2010 Forte Koup--compete with the likes of the Mazda 3?

The brand-new Kia Forte Koup is Kia's first two-door coupe and a sibling to the new Forte sedan, which is Kia's replacement for its sad-sack Spectra and its answer to cars like the Honda Civic, the Toyota Corolla, and the Mazda3. The "Koup" moniker is a melding of the "K" from "Kia" and the "oup" from "coupe." The Forte Koup will be at Kia dealers by August or September.
