Successful Design Changes

With a fresh redesign, the 2022 Kia Forte boasts a sportier and more aggressive look. At the front, its stylistic changes include new headlight clusters, standard LED headlights with a new light signature, a redesigned bumper and much more. At the rear, there are new LED lights and a spoiler that highlight the sporty nature of the new model.

The LX version is equipped fitted with 15-inch wheels, but their size and design change from one version to the other. The biggest wheels, 18 inches in size, are found on the GT versions. GT versions are even sportier thanks to the red trim.

The interior also offers many new additions, including a new a centre console that frees up more storage space. The interior maintains the best features from previous years, including the very comfortable seats and standard heated front seats.

If you choose the GT Limited version, you will enjoy the new luxury package with ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a premium audio system and much more.

This high-end trim of the 2022 Kia Forte is offered at an MSRP of only $29,995! It's worth noting that the entry-level version of this compact car offers excellent value for money with its base price of $18,295.

Advanced Technologies

Inside the cabin you will find new technologies that can’t be overlooked: in addition to the standard 8-inch screen, a 10.3-inch multimedia system is now optional. Wireless Apple CarPlay^tm and Android Auto^tm are also standard in the new Kia sedan.

The optional navigation system is also smarter than ever: it doesn't just give directions, but also works alongside cruise control to predict what's ahead, such as turns. The automatic emergency braking system has also been improved to better detect pedestrians and cyclists.

In addition to the usual safety technologies, the lane keeping system is now standard on the EX version. Other safety features include blind spot monitoring with rear cross traffic alert and the Driver Attention Warning System.

EX Premium and GT versions also add even more technologies and features including UVO Intelligence connected services. This phone app lets you start, unlock, and flash the lights of your vehicle with your phone, while also letting you check the vehicle’s status.

Two Available Engines

Kia is not changing the winning recipe when it comes to the powertrains. The LX and EX versions are once again equipped with a 2.0 L 4-cylinder engine with 147 horsepower which boasts excellent fuel ratings.

In fact, when equipped with the IVT transmission (like the CVT, but smart!), it only consumes 5.9 L/100 km on the highway and 7.9 L/100 km in the city! Speaking of the transmission, note that the Forte is one of the few cars that still offer a manual transmission.

Offering more power, the GT versions are equipped with a 1.6 L engine with 201 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque. This engine is mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and a multi-link rear suspension for a smooth experience on the road. Surprisingly, this powerful engine is very efficient with a fuel consumption of 8.7 L/100 km in the city and 6.6 L/100 km on the highway.

The 2022 Kia Forte is a very affordable sedan that doesn’t just save you money when you purchase it, but also at the pump, regardless of the version you choose!
