yes.
So fast? I left my name and contact to the SA. He said would call me once have the new test drive unit. But he has not called me yet.
Initially, Forte is one of my consideration. The new upgrade is even more attractive. But I heard that the car interest will be increased anytime and car prices will be increased by 2-3% soon due to price increase for raw mat. Only one factor still okay but with both factors come in, it is not worth if I get get same car at cheaper price earlier. Thorefore, I have bought 308THP before CNY.
Just paid booking fee. SA not yet called me to collect DP. If really new forte is out, must go and try. Since not yet increase car price and interest.

It can not be denied that Forte is a not bad car but you can not compare it to P1 car model as you mentioned. It is not a fair coparison. May be you should compare it with Inspira right now.
I tested Forte, upgraded 6 speeds, both 1.6 and 2.0. Even though I do not intend to buy this car but test drive is a fun experience for me.
In term of power, I personally think that 1.6 is powerful enough. What I mean is when I pressedn the pedal, it would give me response.
In term of build quality, it is okay.
The problem is I could hear a loud engine sound when I pressed on the pedal.
Second problem is when I drive through uneven road, for driver, it was alright. But when my wife drove through the same road, I sat behind, felt like I was in the Avanza. According to the salesman, this car is tuned more to be sport car, that's why it happened.
I think with the package that this car provided and lower selling price, make more people willing to try kia's car.

Not everyone like you, know what to do for problems. For majority drivers like me, if we face this problem during test drive, high chance that we will let go this car if the stability is important to us.
Or else, Naza should hire salesman with experience or train them, so that you know what to do after receive feedback from potential customers.
