Buying the 2021 Kia Forte LX

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2021 Kia Forte LX for sale by us right now. This page puts the 2021 Kia Forte LX in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.

Before you sign for the Forte

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. 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.

The numbers in plain words

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.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 21 litres, from its 7.1 L/100 km rating. In energy, every 100 km costs about $11.01 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,050 a year for 15,000 miles.

How big it is

As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Luggage space is rated at 425 litres: a family's bags for a long weekend.

Who it is for

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

A longer test drive

A week with the Forte answers more than any brochure. Try the Forte on your commute, then decide. Rent the Forte first, and buy only if it fits your life.

Running costs

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

Narrowing it down

Compare the LX with the other trims of the same year before you decide. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.

A note on Java

Java is about 3,178 km from our Toronto location, beyond the area we deliver to. If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Java.
