    Thinking of buying the 2021 Kia Forte GT?

    We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2021 Kia Forte GT for sale by us right now. Here is what to know about the 2021 Kia Forte GT before buying one.

    A buyer's checks

    In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

    Under the hood

    Power comes from the 2.0L 4-cylinder, driving through an automatic (CVT). It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

    The EPA rates it at 7.1 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 21 litres. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $33.03 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,050 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

    Who rents the Forte

    It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

    Space and size

    It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. The trunk holds 425 litres by the EPA's count: a family's bags for a long weekend.

    Try before you buy

    Drive the Forte on your commute before you commit to it. Rent the Forte for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Forte answers the big questions.

    Year and trim

    Compare the GT with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.

    Money matters

    Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. The EPA estimates US$2,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
