| 2010 New York Auto Show: 2011 Kia Sorento SX Posted: 01 Apr 2010 10:43 AM PDT  Kia's Sorento crossover--while a clean and attractive design--doesn't exactly deliver the aggressive image some buyers are looking for, or at least it didn't until now. Shown this morning at the 2010 New York Auto Show, the 2011 Kia Sorento SX puts a new face on the CUV. Flared headlamps, swept-back lines and prominent fog lamps give a stronger...

The reasons are many, but fans feared the ties to the company's rally racing heritage would be severed as well...

| 2011 Kia Forte Five-Door: 2010 New York Auto Show Posted: 01 Apr 2010 07:00 AM PDT  Kia has yet another flavor of Forte for car shoppers--a five-door hatchback is joining the family, and it's live this week at the 2010 New York auto show.

The current Optima's more typical of the last generation of Kia cars: functional but unexciting. In our Bottom Line on the 2010 Optima, we applaud its...
