Commanding Performance and Fuel Economy

Through its base-level engine, the new Kia Forte offers something for the money-savers out there with a 147-horsepower inline four-cylinder (I4) engine that can travel up to an EPA-estimated 31 mpg in the city and 41 mpg on the highway. However, if you really want to crank up the performance and feel the rush if this sedan and its engine, consider the highest GT and GT Manual trims. Both of these performance-based models feature a 201-horsepower turbocharged I4 engine, which kicks up 195 total pound-feet of torque.

Many trims, including the base, offer a six-speed manual transmission which greatly benefits those who know how to drive stick and can use it to save fuel in the long-term. Each trim also offers a new Intelligent Continuously Variable Automatic Transmission (IVT) which automatically selects gears based on driver input and terrain, in order to intuitively save you fuel in the long-run and curb emissions. Overall, the performance and fuel economy of the Kia Forte make it the commuter's choice for student drivers and daily commuters in Marshall, TX.

Interior Technology and Comfort

Concerning interior technology, you can access connectivity and convenience features through the available 10.25-inch touchscreen. Through it, you can access and enjoy your favorite apps and media through Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration using only your voice.

With comfort, the 2023 Kia Forte features optional heated and ventilated seats for optimized comfort on your drive. Further, you can use the 60/40 split-folding rear seats to open up the cargo area to fit your needs.
