    The 2021 Kia Forte LX for buyers

    CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2021 Kia Forte LX for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before you buy the 2021 Kia Forte LX, see the figures and the checks worth doing.

    A buyer's checks

    Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

    What the specs mean

    The 2.0L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

    It is rated at 7.1 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 21 litres. A 300 km weekend costs about $33.03 in energy at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,050 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

    Size and space

    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.

    Is it right for your trip?

    It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

    A longer test drive

    Rent the Forte for a week and see how it fits your life. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Forte answers the big questions. A test week in the Forte tells you more than any review.

    What it costs to run

    At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.01 in 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 LX 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.

    Ruby and the Forte

    If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Ruby. We have no location in Ruby; CarmaCars rents from Toronto, about 2,375 km away.

    A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.
