2018 Kia Forte
The Kia Forte is a compact sedan that comes well-equipped with technology and features. For the 2018 model, Kia added cruise control to the base LX model and added Android Auto and Apple CarPlay to the Popular package. The manufacturer also added some extra features to the Premium package and added new safety systems. Here are some of the details for the 2018 Kia Forte.
Trim Levels
The Forte sedan comes in three different trim levels. Starting off with the base level LX, it has 15-inch steel wheels and heated mirrors, and if you add the Popular Plus package, you'll get alloy wheels and LED taillights. A bump up to the S adds 16-inch alloy wheels, a rear spoiler, LED running lights, and a chrome exhaust. The S with the Technology Package comes with fog lights and a sunroof. The top-level EX trim adds 17-inch alloy wheels, LED taillights, and integrated LED turn signals. The EX with the Premium Plus package has a sunroof and adaptive xenon headlights and some interior upgrades.
Engine
Both the LX and the S models get a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 147 horsepower and 132 pound-feet of torque The LX comes standard with a six-speed manual transmission with the option for a six-speed automatic, and the LX comes standard with the automatic. Both are front wheel drive. The EX model comes with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that generates 164 horsepower and 151 pound-feet of torque, and it also gets a six-speed automatic transmission.
Performance
The fuel economy in the Forte depends on the engine and transmission. The most efficient is the LX with the manual transmission which gets 29 miles per gallon in the city and 37 mpg on the highway, but the more powerful EX still with the 2.0-liter engine gets 25 miles per gallon in the city and 33 mpg on the highway.
Interior
There is a surprising amount of space in the cabin of this compact car with plenty of head and leg room both in the front and back. The trunk is also one of the largest in its class, and the Forte has a 60/40 split rear seat making it easy to customize the amount of passenger and cargo space. Standard technology features include Bluetooth, satellite radio, and a USB port. The higher EX trim adds leather seats, ambient lighting, and heated front seats, and optional features such as ventilated seats, navigation, and a power-adjustable driver's seat. Add the Popular Package to the LX for a 7-inch touch screen display with Android Auto and Apple Car Play along with the Uvo infotainment system, or the Popular Plus Package for upgrades including a leather-wrapped steering wheel.
Safety Features
Kia makes a rearview camera available as an option on the LX and standard on the higher trims. The Technology Package on the S adds lane departure warning with lane keep assist, automatic emergency braking, and a blind-spot monitoring system. The EX trim comes standard with these active safety features and the option for the Premium Plus Package which adds forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking. <br><br> <a href="https://www.leithautoparkkia.com/2017-kia-forte-raleigh.html" class="btn btn-main margin-bottom_5x btn-lg btn-block" style="width: 80%">Compare to 2017 Forte</a>
