What’s the goal of any modern car? Space, luxury, gas mileage, comfort, and performance all at a reasonable price should be the answer, and if that is indeed the case, the new 2020 Kia Forte checks all those boxes, and then some. With a spacious, modern interior, great gas mileage, excellent connectivity, impressive optional additions, 1st class safety features, and all at a low price, the Forte packs considerable value in its modest exterior.  Add in an impressive standard package the Forte is a guaranteed hit in its Sophomore season. 

The 2020 Kia Forte

Comfortable Spacious Interior

With high-quality materials, the 2020 Forte goes beyond expectation with a sleek, modern design. Pairing a spacious back seat that could easily fit two adults comfortably with considerable storage space, long drives and short commutes are both handled with ease.

Fewer Fill Ups

With over 30 mpg in the city and 40 mpg on the highway, the Forte will stay where it belongs: on the road. With its 2.0-liter, 4-cylinder engine, the Forte excels at avoiding regular gas stops, chewing up miles instead of cash.  Even on the more powerful GT model, MPG is under 30 miles highway.

An Array of Connection Features

Through both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, the Forte offers an excellent selection of features. Standard features such as Bluetooth ensure eyes stay on the road while driving, with all necessary controls on the wheel or with voice. Sporting an 8.0-inch touchscreen system and optional features such as a wireless phone charging pad and SiriusXM Radio, the Forte aims to fulfill modern drivers’ multimedia needs.

Options Galore

Outside of a great standard package, the 2020 Forte has optional features meant to customize every driving experience. With five different trim options, from the standard FE to the LXS and the more aggressive GT-line, the Forte provides excitement to go along with economy and comfort.

A bigger, turbocharged, 1.6-liter engine producing more than 200 horsepower, a dual-clutch transmission, dual temperature control, as well as heated seats can all be added to any build, making each package unique and each drive an adventure.

Safety First

The Forte received a 4-star safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) named it a Top Safety Pick for 2019. The Forte comes standard with forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, and adaptive cruise control.

Starting at under $19,000, the Forte combines great comfort, economy, and space with incredible value. The top of the range GT model still falls under $24,000, offering all the comfort and excitement reminiscent of the Forte’s gym-addicted cousin the Kia Stinger, but at a considerably more reasonable price. The Forte brings 1st class tech, luxury, and performance at a great price. Considering that, what else is there? Visit us now at Crain Kia to test drive the Forte or any of our new or used cars.
