Thinking of buying the 2021 Kia Forte EX+?

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2021 Kia Forte EX+; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Buying the 2021 Kia Forte EX+ is a big decision; here is the information we have.

Before you sign for the Forte

Owners filed 69 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine, unknown or other and electrical system; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

Engine and fuel

The engine is the 2.0L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and an automatic (CVT). It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

The EPA rates it at 7.1 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 21 litres. Expect about $11.01 per 100 km at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Who the Forte suits

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

The Forte in everyday use

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. The EPA lists 425 litres for luggage, roughly a family's bags for a long weekend.

Drive it on your own roads

A test week in the Forte tells you more than any review. If the Forte is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent the Forte for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

Choosing the right one

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Compare the EX+ with the other trims of the same year before you decide.

The cost of driving it

The EPA estimates US$2,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.01 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $110.10 at our price setting.
