There you have it. The Forte is Kia’s best-selling model so far in 2017, but the Soul is a very close second. As you can see, SUVs like the Sorento and the Sportage rank in Kia’s top five as well as the compact crossover Soul, and sedans in the Forte and Optima. Due to the variety of successful models, consumers can infer that Kia has done well at manufacturing and marketing all types of vehicles, and their sales numbers reflect that.
