They really, really hated the car's interior but did like the handling. In the video they said the car was slow even though it had a fair amount of HP. They also said the design is already looking old.

This was a comparison of 8 compact cars. It came in 7th.

Well they are alone in their assessment, everyone else has been giving it good marks. I wouldn't have placed it first, but it should have been higher than 7th.

M/T and their sister Publication C&D whore themselves out to who wine and dines them the best. It's clear Ford and Chevy have them in their pockets. They couldn't dump on Hyundai or they'd look like jokes.
I'm sure Hyundai probably wine and dined them pretty good too.

Hyundai owns Kia, so why would they bad mouth them? did they review the sx?

That's one of the issues I have with this test. Some of the complaints they had about the EX would have been solved if they tested the SX. Most of the vehicles were top of the line models but they chose to use the Forte EX... pretty unfair.

yet, another unfair review for the forte! review the sx people! but congrats to our sibling elantra.

The most biased review EVER...

you can't compare a Top Trim $24,060 Focus "Titanium" or a 23K Jetta TDI to a 18K Forte EX. There's a significant difference between the 2.0 and the 2.4L, not the mention the sport tuned suspension.. BULLSH*T
