2011 Kia Forte Koup named one of the Top 10 coolest cars under $18.000

The Kia 2011 Forte Koup has been named one of the “Top 10 Coolest Cars Under $18,000″ by Kelley Blue Book’s popular site kbb.com. Kelley Blue Book is the leading and one of the most popular providers of information regarding new and used cars in the USA.

The “Top 10 Coolest New Cars Under $18,000″ list surveyed the marketplace for new cars that were fun to own, drive and, most importantly, had the “cool factor”. The editors of kbb.com included the cars by checking their Fair Purchase Price from Kelley Blue Book, which accurately reflects the changing prices in a changing marketplace.

The 2011 Forte Koup was selected for the list because of its style, affordability and modern technologies that it provides at the given price range. According to the editors of Kelley Blue Book’s kbb.com, the Kia Forte Koup was also the sportiest looking car in the list.

Those who don’t know much about the stylish sports coupe from Kia, let us reveal you a few important facts about it. The Forte Koup comes in two trims, EX and SX, and is a two-door coupe that come pre-installed with an overabundance of amenities and power.




The 2011 Forte EX model is powered by a 156-horsepower 2.0L four-cylinder engine, whereas the SX model comes with a 2.4L inline four-cylinder that delivers 173 horsepower. The torques delivered by the engines are 144 and 168 pound-feet, respectively. The starting price of the car is under $17.000 (MSRP).

The Forte Koup comes with standard equipment that includes Bluetooth wireless technology, USB/iPod integration, and a satellite ready audio system. It is available with a six speaker MP3 audio system that is outfitted with Sirius XM Satellite Radio. The steering wheel is mounted with voice-activated controls that use Bluetooth for easier functioning.

According to Michael Sprague, vice president of marketing & communications, Kia Motors America, the Forte Koup’s recognition by Kelley Blue Book’s kbb.com as a ‘cool’ vehicle is further validation of the carmakers strategy to provide consumers with a compelling combination of aggressive styling and performance, a long list of standard safety features and strong overall value.

The Forte Koup, like the rest of the Kia lineup, continues to raise the bar in the segment by offering performance and modern technologies that contribute to an outstanding experience for every owner.

2012 Kia Sorento Joyride2 commercial

Kia Motors is back again with an ad campaign that has the cast of popular children’s characters that were first seen during the 2010 Super Bowl.

Titled Joyride 2, the campaign has different children’s characters, that include Muno (from the award winning series YO GABBA GABBA!, that was created by Christian Jacobs and Scott Schultz), Sock Monkey ( from In My Own Dream Studio), MR. X (BLABLA KIDS) and a teddy bear and vintage robot.

All these characters are shown to go on a summer road trip that has line dancing, skydiving, and a fishing expedition. While on the road trip, the characters are shown to interact with the locals, including a bear that is angry for some reason. They are then shown to take a spin in the 2012 Kia Sorento crossover with class-leading fuel economy and horsepower.

The original Joyride campaign was created by David&Goliath, Kia Motors America’s ad agency of record; and they are also the agency responsible for the Joyride 2. The campaign’s main theme is the adventures that await a young couple with their Sorento. The first unique spot has been aired already, and the second one will be aired in July.


About the 2012 Kia Sorento:

The 2012 Sorento is produced in West Point, Georgia , which is the company’s first motor plant in the U.S. As a crossover it offers class-leading fuel economy of up to 32 miles per gallon on a highway, delivered by its GDI 4-cylinder 191 HP engine, which is again one of the most powerful engines in its class. The 2012 model is the second year model, and also comes with ventilated driver’s seat, memory seat, power folding mirrors, power passenger seat and wood trim steering wheel.

Since its launch in 2010 in the U.S., the Sorento has earned an impressive list of awards and accolades, including: “Top 10 Cars for 2011″ by Kelly Blue Book’s kbb.com, “Best Family Cars of 2011″ by Edmunds.com and Parents magazine, “Ten Most Improved Cars of 2011″ by MSNBC.com, and earned a Consumer Guide Automotive “Best Buys” award.

The Hampster ad campaign

The popular hamster ad campaign from Kia Motors has just been awarded one of the most prestigious advertizing awards, the Gold Effie award by the 2011 North American Effie Awards.

The hamster oriented advertizing campaign for the Kia Motors’ Soul urban crossover vehicle was awarded the Effie in the “David vs Goliath” category. This category recognizes campaigns and brands that are punching above their weight in the market – the advertizing David taking on the advertizing Goliaths. The campaign consisted of dancing and singing hamsters, and was called “This or That” campaign.

The “This or That” campaign comes after another successful campaign called “A New Way To Roll”. Both the campaigns have attracted attention from customers, and led to increased sales of the Kia Soul, as well as more awareness of the Kia brand.


It was with help from these campaigns that the Kia Soul became only the second Kia vehicle to sell more than 10,000 cars in a single month in the March of this year. The sales have continued to increase, with the May numbers showing a year on year increase of more than 50 percent.

The latest campaign was created by Kia Motors America’s advertising agency, David&Goliath. The advertisements featured loveable and singing hamsters that poked fun at the boring competitors of Kia Soul in its category. They were seen in different media platforms, including print and billboards, TV spots, a dedicated websites with downloadable games and tracks and even video games.

The hamsters seen in the ads sang Hip Hp, and cruised through the city and compared the Alien Green Soul to a number of other the mundane cars, which were represented by objects such as cardboard boxes and washing machines. The spot was also released in movie theaters across the country in late-May 2010.

The ads feature the Kia Motors‘ Soul hatchback, which comes in four trims: Soul, Soul!, Soul+ and Soul Sport. The 2011 Kia Soul is a five-door crossover vehicle that comes with the low price tag of below $14.000, as well as a style that is utilitarian as well as unique. The vehicle provides a surprisingly spacious interior for its small footprint.

The 2012 Kia Soul will come with even more power and still delivers better fuel economy. It will also have LED lighting, a hands free Kia UVO communications and infotainment system powered by Microsoft and new wheel designs
