Kia Motors is pleased to announce that the 2019 Forte / Cerato has won a 2019 MotorWeek Drivers’ Choice Award for “Best Small Car.”
“With the 2019 Forte / Cerato, Kia has taken an already excellent small car approach and added more space, more technology, and dynamic styling,” says John Davis, creator and host of MotorWeek, television’s longest running automotive magazine show. “The end result is a great looking, highly affordable car that we think is also the most enjoyable daily driver in its size class.”

“The Forte / Ceratowas all-new for 2019. We built it with the goal of it being the best in its class,” says Orth Hedrick, executive director of Car Planning and Telematics, Kia. “So, it really validates the efforts of the entire Kia team when a body of respected auto experts like MotorWeek gives it their top rating.”
