Smartphone integration with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto makes it easy to access compatible navigation, music, messages, podcasts, and other apps through the infotainment display. Bluetooth hands-free connectivity, steering-wheel audio controls, USB connectivity, a rearview camera, and Kia's intuitive infotainment system help keep you connected without making the driving experience unnecessarily complicated.
Kia also packed the Forte with driver-assistance technology designed to make everyday driving more confident. Depending on equipment, features can include Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist, Lane Departure Warning, Lane Keeping Assist, Lane Following Assist, Driver Attention Warning, Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist, and Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist, along with a backup camera, electronic stability control, traction control, anti-lock brakes, tire pressure monitoring, and an advanced airbag system. These technologies are especially valuable for commuters who spend significant time navigating busy highways and city traffic.
The 2.0L MPI 4-cylinder engine is a great match for the Forte's mission as an economical everyday sedan. Paired with Kia's continuously variable automatic transmission, it delivers smooth acceleration while keeping fuel consumption low. Front-wheel drive provides predictable handling and helps keep operating costs manageable. For drivers covering significant mileage each

Driver side window problem
By Eddie | on 1/10/2026 4:39:33 PM
I bought a new 2024 Kia Forte and I like it except for the mentioned driver side window does not roll down many a times. I took it to KY dealer. First they thought it was the switch, then that did not fix it and I have to bring it back again and waited for few more days to for them to fix it. Then after that the problem persisted, I just did not care so much about it because it opens sometimes but also wont open many times, but now after a year, it will not open anymore. Next week I am going to bring it back again to the dealer to have it fix again.… - 5.0
Great car
By Jackie | on 1/10/2026 12:22:58 PM
I have the 2022 Forte 5speed edition and love it. It's zippy and economical to drive, both highway & city driving which is my bread & butter. Easy to handle & all season comfort & reliability in Alberta's seasons. Proper tires & regular maintenance keeps it well tuned. On top of 10 year warranty, my low mileage at under 40k would be an easy sell. The car sells it's self & needs no assistance.… - 5.0
