New 2014 Kia Forte / K3 / Cerato Detailed Inside and Out in New Photo Gallery and Videos
While Kia surely got its act together in terms of designing, engineering and building vehicles over the past decade or so, the South Korean automaker seems a bit confused when it comes to naming its vehicles. How else can you explain the fact that its new global compact sedan will have three different names, depending on the region?

Whatever it is called, the new compact model has adopted the brand's latest design DNA both inside and out, while offering a raft of new technologies such as a parking assistance system, LED headlamps and Kia's next generation “telematics†service UVO, which enables drivers to control their cars via a smartphone or other IT devices.
