The 2018 Kia Forte is packed with features that you’re sure to love.
Power and Performance
The 2018 Kia Forte has plenty of power and performance compared to other vehicles in its class. It comes standard with a 2.0-liter DOHC, 16-valve engine that offers drivers 147 horsepower and 132 pound-feet of torque. It’s a solid engine that not only offers you plenty of power, but it is also excellent on fuel. You can expect to get up to 37 miles per gallon highway and 29 miles per gallon city.
For all of this power, you’ll need high-performance brakes. The 2018 Forte comes standard with 4-wheel disc brakes with an anti-lock braking system.
Exterior Style
The Kia Forte has a distinctive style that is sure to turn heads. You can take pride in the vehicle’s signature Kia tiger-nose front grille. You can also style your Forte with available 17-inch alloy wheels and LED lights for a sportier look.
The style continues to the rear of the vehicle. You get a chrome exhaust, available LED combination lamps, and a hands-free trunk opener.
Interior Comfort
The Forte doesn’t just look good; it’s packed with comfort to make driving even more enjoyable. You can enjoy heated and ventilated leather seats which keep you warm during those chilly winter months and cool you down on hot summer days so you’ll never stick to the leather again. The Forte also has available dual-zone automatic temperature controls.
Entertainment System
The Kia Forte has several different entertainment system options available depending on which trim level you choose. The LX comes standard with an AM/FM 4-speaker audio system and Sirius XM capabilities.
The S and EX trim levels offer tweeter speakers, a 7-inch touch-screen display which allows you to connect your smart device with either Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. Then you can play your own music, podcasts, or audiobooks directly from your phone.
All trim levels come with Bluetooth and hands-free connectivity so that you can change the song or raise and lower the volume without ever taking your hands off the wheel.
Safety Features
The 2018 Kia Forte is packed with features that make getting behind the wheel easier and safer. It comes standard with dual front air bags, full-length side curtain air bags, three-point seatbelts for every passenger, electronic stability control, traction control, front and rear crumple zones, and side-impact door beams.
Opt for the Kia DriveWise system to get a whole suite of safety features, such as emergency braking that automatically applies the brakes if it senses an impending collision, forward collision warning to alert you of a possible collision, lane departure warning in case you drift into a different lane, and lane keeping assistance in the event you don’t adjust after the alert.
There are a lot of reasons to love the brand new 2018 Kia Forte. Head to your nearest Kia dealer today to take a test drive and learn more about the features of the Kia Forte.
