Kia Forte Trim Levels
When you’re on the hunt for a stylish and efficient vehicle, our Kia sedans may come to mind. There are a lot of impressive vehicles on the market and the best way to choose the right one is to do some research.
Here at DeLand Kia, we can help you do just that. For instance, let’s dive in deep to learn about the Kia Forte trim levels. With five trims to choose from, we want to make sure you have the best one for your Deland, Deltona, and DeBary, FL, commutes.
Kia Forte: Performance
Whether you’re driving to the coast for a beach day or sticking close to home, the engine beneath the hood is what keeps your ride going. So, what kind of performance does the Kia Forte provide?
On the LX, LXS, and GT-Line trim levels, you’ll find a standard 2.0L 4-cylinder engine. This engine is paired with the Intelligent Variable Transmission. This combination has an output of 147 horsepower and 132 lb-ft of torque.
While the standard trim has plenty of power to spare, some drivers may want to upgrade to the GT or GT Manual trims.
Both models come with a 1.6L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine. On the GT trim, this engine is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch auto transmission, while the GT Manual trim comes with a 6-speed manual transmission. These two trims will kick your horsepower up to 201 and you'll have 195 lb-ft of torque.
High-Tech Interior
In addition to the powerful performance offered by the Kia Forte, you’ll also find high-tech features inside the Forte. Once again, you’ll see a few differences between the trim levels. For instance, the LX and LXS trims come with:
- 4.2-inch Instrument Display
- 8-inch Touchscreen Display
- 4 Speakers
- Android Auto™
- Apple CarPlay®
The other trims share most of those features as well, with the exception of the speakers and the touchscreen display. When you upgrade to the GT-Line or GT trim, you’ll have six speakers and the ability to opt for the Harmon Kardon® Premium Audio with eight speakers. The GT Manual trim comes standard with the Premium Audio system.
As for your display, the GT-Line, GT, and GT Manual trims share a 10.25-inch display with Navigation. This will make your commutes easier than ever.
Stretch Out Inside the Cabin
While the Kia Forte isn’t a large family commuter, it still offers an impressive amount of interior space. For instance, all five trims offer 96 cubic feet inside the cabin. If you’re opting for the available sunroof on the GT-Line, GT, or GT Manual trim, the 93.5 cubic feet of interior volume is still comfortable.
Plus, all trims come with amenities that will enhance the ride. The LX and LXS trim offer standard features like air conditioning, Drive Mode Select, and a 6-way driver’s seat. If you’re upgrading to one of the higher trims, check out the different features:
