2010 Kia Forte Sedan - New Car Rebates and Incentives - July 20, 2010
The 2010 Kia Forte sedan is a strong competitor in the entry-level compact four-door field. Designed to offer excellent value when compared to segment leaders such as the Honda Civic and the Toyota Corolla, the Kia Forte sedan starts out with a stripped down LX trim that is designed to appeal to bargain hunters looking for a basic commuter car. Moving up to the Forte EX adds in the items that most shoppers are looking for: air conditioning, power windows and door locks, rear headrests and a CD player. For drivers who are looking for a more spirited version of the vehicle, the SX trim installs 17-inch wheels, a stiffer suspension system, sporty interior and exterior accents and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. Options for the Kia Forte sedan range from a folding rear seat on up to heated leather seats and a sunroof.
The 2010 Kia Forte sedan starts out with a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine in both LX and EX trim. Offering 156 horsepower and 144 lb-ft of torque, this unit also provides fuel mileage of 25 miles per gallon in city driving and 34 miles per gallon on the highway. Transmission choices include a five-speed manual and a four-speed automatic. The SX edition of the vehicle is given a 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine that is good for 173 horsepower and 168 lb-ft of torque, output that also knocks fuel economy down to 22 miles per gallon in the city and 32 miles per gallon during highway cruising. Each of the Forte's transmission choices gain an extra forward gear when matched with the larger motor.
