    Thinking of buying the 2021 Kia Forte EX+?

    We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2021 Kia Forte EX+ for sale by us right now. This page puts the 2021 Kia Forte EX+ in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.

    Before you sign for the Forte

    There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. 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.

    The numbers in plain words

    Power: the 2.0L 4-cylinder; drive: front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

    Rated at 7.1 L/100 km combined, it needs around 21 litres for a 300 km round trip. Expect about $11.01 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,050 a year for 15,000 miles.

    Best uses

    It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

    What to expect from the Forte

    A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. The EPA lists 425 litres for luggage, roughly a family's bags for a long weekend.

    Drive it on your own roads

    If the Forte is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. A test week in the Forte tells you more than any review. Rent the Forte first, and buy only if it fits your life.

    Year and trim

    Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

    What it costs to run

    Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.01 in fuel.

    The Forte and Ruby

    CarmaCars works from Toronto, about 249 km from Ruby, and delivers on request. If you need it in Ruby itself, send a request and we will tell you honestly whether we can help.
