Efficient Performance

The 2023 Kia Forte comes with a choice of engines that are as efficient as they're refined. Most models feature a 2.0-liter inline-4 producing 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque. However, shoppers who want more muscle can opt for the Forte GT, which has a 1.6-liter turbocharged inline-4 that's good for 201 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque. Front-wheel drive is standard. Base Forte models come fitted with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). With the GT, you can choose a six-speed manual transmission or a seven-speed automatic.

When equipped with the base engine, the Forte returns either 30 mpg in the city and 41 mpg on the highway or 28 mpg in the city and 39 mpg on the highway. The 1.6-liter turbo powertrain gains 27 mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway when fitted with the automatic transmission or 22 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway when equipped with the six-speed manual.

Feature-Packed Interior

Inside, the Forte is well-appointed. Depending on your model of choice, the small sedan has a leather-wrapped steering wheel, push-button start, dual-zone automatic climate control, a rear air-conditioning vent, paddle shifters, and more. Some trims can also be fitted with packages that include niceties such as heated and ventilated front seats, synthetic leather upholstery, a power adjustable driver's seat, LED interior lighting, a sunroof, and so on.

Outside, the Forte is available with LED foglights, LED running lights and taillights, 18-inch alloy wheels, heated exterior mirrors, keyless entry functionality, and more.

Advanced Safety Systems

The Kia Forte has an impressive array of standard safety technologies. These include a rearview camera, forward collision warning, forward automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, driver-attention monitor, lane-departure warning, lane-keep assist, and automatic high-beam headlights.

For even more protection, you can opt for available safety amenities such as blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, cyclist detection, highway driving assist, vehicle-exit warning, navigation-based stop-and-go adaptive cruise control, and rear parking sensors.

Intuitive Infotainment System

Forte's infotainment system is straightforward. It includes an 8-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, Bluetooth, a USB port, and a four-speaker audio system.

Higher models offer a 10.25-inch touch screen with wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless device charging, navigation, additional USB ports, satellite radio, HD Radio, a six-speaker audio system, and an eight-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system.
