5 Features That Set the 2024 Kia Forte Apart

Spirited Standard Engine 

The 2024 Forte is built for urban agility and powers your daily commutes with a 147-hp 2.0L 4-cylinder engine that provides enough bite for whatever the day is throwing your way. Paired with an intelligent variable transmission and front-wheel drive, this powertrain offers the perfect balance between performance and fuel economy, with an EPA-estimated rating of 34 MPG combined, so your trips won’t be too hard on your wallet.

Thrills on the Tracks

Those who want to dash through town can find plenty of power to match their level of thrill in the two Forte GT models. Both boast a turbocharged powertrain that pumps out 201 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque.

A choice between a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission with paddle shifters or a 6-speed manual makes it easy to match the car to your driving style. The manual transmission model also comes with Michelin Pilot Sport summer tires for outstanding traction and balance on the racetracks.

Next-Level Entertainment

Driving the 2024 Forte is more fun when you can listen to your favorite tunes, and you have plenty of options to stream music from your phone, choose a radio channel, or access various streaming apps such as Pandora or Spotify directly from the infotainment system. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration also enable hands-free phone control with access to your favorite texting and navigation apps.

Stylish Inside-Out 

Whether you’re driving to work or taking your family to the mall, the 2024 Forte won’t go unnoticed. This compact sedan boasts an incredibly stylish design that will turn heads at every corner. Smooth lines pair with sleek projector headlights with daytime running lights, bold exterior colors, and eye-catching wheel options.

The interior complements the exterior with a streamlined design enhanced by the large center touchscreen and digital gauge behind the steering wheel. Black woven cloth-trimmed seat and 96 cubic feet of interior volume provide roomy comfort for all riders.
