NAZA KIA Forte Keyless Entry / Remote Review & Feedback

Written on November 29, 2009 – 12:39 pm | by saimatkong | 4,794 Views

Have you test drive this Korean Kia Forte? If not pls head to your nearest Naza or KIA Motor showroom now before you even say that, “KIA wor… Why buy KIA?” “KIA good meh?” “KIA got resell value meh?” “KIA spare part expensive right?” etc…

For me I think this New NAZA KIA Forte will change entire perception about Korean car, hence next time you will not see ppl mention any sentence above. I personally think that it’s like Samsung where ppl will not buy or even thing for their appliances compared to Japanese brand like Sony or Panasonic etc, but now what you think about Samsung? Is the similar case.

For the spare part I think it should not be a problem as this NAZA KIA Forte will be CKD soon instead of CBU, so those spare part will be localize and furthermore it’s selling like hot cake and got positive review from Singapore and the price of this Forte is increasing in Singapore.

Keyless entry button, you need to press the button with the keyless remote in your pocket near you!

There’s actually a key in this remote, check it out and this key is for emergency case like your remote is out of battery so you can’t enter the car, so you need to use the key to open your High tech NAZA KIA Forte, then use the charging dock to charge it before you start the engine! Coz you need batt in the remote for you to start your car too, if not it will not able to detect your remote key!

There’s a safety feature implemented too, if you forget to take the remote out / leave your remote in the car, it will not allow you to lock your car! It’s a smart car don’t you think? Haha.

Go book your All New NAZA KIA Forte now for the CBU before it’s too late and regret getting CKD! If you are considering, pls consider higher specs of 1.6 which is 1.6SX or 2.0SX, don’t ever think about saving your money and get the lower specs 1.6EX which the interior is bad plasticky look / feel, no Air bags, not reverse assist, not 17″ alloy rim, no push start, no this and that… Haha. Go to try out yourself and now tell me is this worth or not compared to those Japanese car like Honda City, Toyota VIOS which is only in B Segment where else this NAZA KIA Forte is in C Segment!

If you want to wait, there will be 4 model releasing next year from KIA. One of them might be KIA Forte Koup and KIA K7 (very ying car but not cheap la…)

If you liked this post, buy me a beer. (Suggested: $3 a beer or $7.5 for a pitcher)

    Aiyoh … for goodness sakes .. It’s a Kia …

    Would you buy a Samsung LCD/Plasma? Compared to Panasonic or Sony … I don’t think so. The people’s perception is still there one … and that’s the toughest thing to change.

    Nothing wrong with Samsung ah. I’m using Samsung phone also. Samsung LCD/LED HD TV is also one of the leading brand here. It’s even more expensive than Panasonic wtf. My first choice will be Samsung LCD TV if not for their more expensive price than Panasonic.

    so excited with this Kia Forte….
    The success of Kia is not happened in 1 day. The hardwork and strategic planning have contributed a lot…and make them the 5th largest car manufacturer in the world….
    Don’t hesitate, take a look of Kia Forte today and book for it or else you will be too late. The price will surely increased soon ( RM 6000 in Malaysia) according to the Sales person

    I am about to walk into Kia Singapore showroom to book a 1.6 SX(A)forte. As far as I know from http://www.sgcarmart.com, none of the Forte SX (A) model has this keyless entry feature. Wondering if this is an add-on feature, available in Singapore, when ordering the car and how much it will cost?
