Thinking of buying the 2021 Kia Forte GT?

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2021 Kia Forte GT; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Here is what to know about the 2021 Kia Forte GT before buying one.

A buyer's checks

A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Owners filed 69 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine, unknown or other and electrical system; have those parts checked. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

The numbers in plain words

It uses the 2.0L 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Fuel use is rated 7.1 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 21 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $11.01 to drive 100 km. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,050 a year for 15,000 miles.

Practical details

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.

Who the Forte suits

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

Rent it for a week first

If the Forte is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Rent the Forte for a week and see how it fits your life.

The cost of driving it

Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Picking a year and a trim

Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. 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.

The Forte and Patsy

If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Patsy. Patsy is about 1,196 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area.
