    The 2021 Kia Forte GT: before you buy

    We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2021 Kia Forte GT for sale by us right now. Before you buy the 2021 Kia Forte GT, see the figures and the checks worth doing.

    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. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

    Specs, explained

    The 2.0L 4-cylinder, paired with an automatic (CVT), drives it. 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. That works out to about $11.01 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,050 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

    Living with the Forte

    As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. EPA lists 425 litres of luggage space, enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.

    When the Forte makes sense

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

    Rent it for a week first

    Rent first, buy later: a week with the Forte answers the big questions. Rent the Forte for a week and see how it fits your life. Drive the Forte on your commute before you commit to it.

    What it costs to run

    Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. The EPA estimates US$2,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

    Narrowing it down

    If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
