Unveiling the New Kia Forte at Kia Santa Maria

In an era dominated by compact automobiles, the new Kia Forte distinguishes itself by presenting a seamless combination of affordability, fuel economy and contemporary features. It maintains a standard of excellence without compromise. The new Forte is a dependable and cost-effective small vehicle that exhibits exceptional performance. Come with us as we explore the distinguishing features of the new Kia Forte at Kia Santa Maria.

An Overview of the New Kia Forte

Positioned between the little Kia Rio and the larger K5 family sedan, the new Forte has successfully carved out a niche within small automobiles. Although it displays elements of athleticism, its design does not prioritize catering to those seeking exhilarating experiences. On the contrary, the company takes great satisfaction in its modest approach, positioning itself as an optimal option for those who prioritize pragmatism.

Choosing the Right Model

Four trim levels are available for the new Kia Forte, so you can easily choose the one that works for you. The four Forte trim levels include:

  • Forte LX: The base Forte LX is an excellent starting point, offering some fantastic standard technologies and amenities at an affordable price.
  • Forte LXS: The LXS is a worthy upgrade over the original model, providing San Luis Obispo shoppers with a more premium option.
  • Forte GT-Line: The GT-Line fuses form and function, adopting a sportier aesthetic.
  • Forte GT: The GT caters to drivers looking for something more powerful with its focus on performance, and this model is available with either an automatic or manual transmission.

Performance

The Forte's driving dynamics provide Paso Robles drivers with a calm and secure driving experience. The standard 2.0-liter I4 gives you a decent 147 horsepower and 132 pound-feet of torque, which can propel this lightweight car around town with ease. Choosing the Forte GT, however, provides you with the exciting 1.6-liter turbocharged I4, which can produce up to 201 horsepower and 195 pound-feet of torque.

Interior Comfort and Space

Santa Barbara drivers are sure to love the well-made cabin of the new Kia Forte. Excellent materials and smart design choices give you a warm and inviting space. All the necessities are included in the base model, and higher trims improve the driving experience with features like automatic dual-zone climate control, heated and ventilated front seats and more.
