6 Key Advantages of Driving the 2024 Kia Forte

The small sedan class may be flooded with options, but few match up to the 2024 Kia Forte. The new Forte is insanely affordable and yet offers a great powertrain, a stylish cabin, and a ton of standard and optional features. Here’s what you stand to enjoy when you own or lease the 2024 Forte.

6 Key Advantages of Driving the 2024 Kia Forte

1. Eye-Catching Design

From the outside, the Kia Forte has an eye-catching exterior design with sporty vibes and sleek lines. It has a bold front grille and a striking back end, with an optional rear spoiler. 15-inch steel wheels are standard, but you can get 16-inch, 17-inch, or 18-inch alloys in higher trims. LED headlights, tail lights, and daytime running lights are also optional.

2. Impressive Power and Efficiency

Under the hood, there is a 2.0L four-cylinder engine that makes 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque. It is mated with a CVT, and FWD is standard. The Forte handles smoothly and returns great fuel mileage of 30 mpg in the city, 41 mpg on the highway, and 34 mpg combined.

There’s an available 1.6L turbo-four paired with a 7-speed auto. It makes 201 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque and is rated at 30 mpg combined (27 city/35 highway).

3. Thrilling Control With Manual Transmission

The 2024 Forte is one of the few sedans that still offers a stick shift. If you love the thrill of shifting manually, opt for the GT Manual, which pairs the 1.6L turbo-four engine with a 6-speed manual transmission.

4. Stylish and Spacious Interior

Driving the Forte is fun and relaxing thanks to its well-appointed cabin. The base LX has cloth seats, AC, and interior lighting. Higher trims add LED interior lighting, combination sport seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, a 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, and a leather-wrapped, flat-bottom steering wheel.

5. Connectivity at Your Fingertips

The Forte’s high-tech cabin keeps you connected on the go. With the standard 8-inch touchscreen display, you can plug in your smartphone and access apps through Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. A 10.25-inch touchscreen display is optional, and it comes with in-built navigation. The base audio system has four speakers, and there’s an available 8-speaker Harman Kardon sound system.

6. Advanced Safety Features

Kia Drive Wise acts as your second pair of eyes on the road. Basic features include forward collision avoidance, lane keeping assist, lane following assist, driver attention warning, and rear occupant alert. There are optional technologies, such as blind spot collision avoidance, rear cross-traffic alert, and navigation-based cruise control.
