Blessed with abundant athleticism under the hood, the 2017 Kia Forte offers two outstanding powertrain options that offer terrific agility and performance in varying degrees. Standard for the new model year, replacing the outgoing 1.8L four-cylinder platform, is a 2.0L inline four-cylinder rated for 147 horsepower and up to 38 highway mpg, while the EX trim level features a retuned 2.0L four-cylinder engineered to deliver 164 horsepower and 33 highway mpg. In either case, drivers may enjoy first-rate crash-mitigation features such as Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Lane Departure Warning, helping to keep the occurrence of accidents at a minimum.

Once inside the 2017 Kia Forte, drivers are treated to a number of updated technology features that offer a great deal of convenience for prospective buyers. These features include the updated UVO E-services platform with a 7-inch color touchscreen, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity, and a USB/auxiliary input jack. Meanwhile, with a stylish and comfortable interior cabin complete with a ten-way power driver seat and available heated and ventilated front seats, the Forte is more accommodating than ever as well.
