Overview
The 2021 Kia Forte is one of the premier compact cars on the market today. With the Forte, you get just what you need without paying extra for the features you dont' want. It features simple technology features that the modern driver demands without becoming overly complicated. Perhaps the most unique aspect of the 2021 Kia Forte is its spaciousness. Not only is the cabin comfortable and spacious, but the trunk offers plenty of cargo space. The Kia Forte is the perfect daily driver for those who want simplicity, reliability, and great fuel economy.
The Perfect Ride For...
New drivers, long-distance travelers, and young professionals. The 2021 Kia Forte offers a sleek design that any driver would be proud of. The small size is perfect for navigating busy city streets and the four-door configuration makes it convenient for drivers who utilize the back seat often, either for passengers or cargo. The new Forte GT-Line offers a suite of luxe upgrades like black exterior accents, alloy wheels, LED exterior lighting, sport seats, and a smart key with push-button start.
Drive and Handling
While the 2021 Kia Forte's design focuses more on practicality than performance, drivers can still have a good time behind the wheel of this car. There are two engine options for this vehicle: a spirited 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine making 147 horsepower and a peppy turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine producing up to 201 horsepower. The 2.0-liter engine comes standard with a six-speed manual transmission, while a CVT is optional for this engine. The 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine comes standard with a sporty seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard on all models.
Key Features
Safety
Some associate compact cars with a lack of safety features, but this certainly isn't the case with the 2021 Kia Forte. The standard rearview camera makes parking and backing out a breeze. It also has many driver assistance features, including lane departure warning and lane-keeping assist. It even has a standard driver drowsiness monitoring aid, which is something commonly found on more expensive vehicles. The 2021 Kia Forte also has automatic emergency braking and forward-collision warning systems. Available safety technologies include blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, automatic high beams, reverse parking sensors, and pedestrian detection.
Technology
The 2021 Kia Forte also has many infotainment and technology features. The centerpiece of the tech in the 2021 Forte is the standard infotainment system, which is controlled by a standard 8-inch touchscreen display. The standard stereo system has four speakers, while a powerful and immersive six-speaker stereo system is a popular option. The premium eight-speaker surround sound stereo offers a level of audio performance rarely seen in this class. Satellite radio is optional to allow you to listen to music, news, sports, talk shows, and more from wherever your Forte takes you. The 2021 Kia Forte makes both wired and wireless connectivity easy, as it has a USB port and Bluetooth functionality. Two additional USB ports are optional if you need them. You and your passengers can even connect your devices using the 2021 Forte's standard Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay® compatibility.
