The 2021 Kia Forte LX for buyers
CarmaCars rents cars; this page helps you judge the 2021 Kia Forte LX before you buy one elsewhere. Buying the 2021 Kia Forte LX is a big decision; here is the information we have.
A buyer's checks
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. NHTSA has 69 owner complaints on file, mostly about engine, unknown or other and electrical system.
The numbers in plain words
The 2.0L 4-cylinder, paired with an automatic (CVT), drives it. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
A combined rating of 7.1 L/100 km works out to about 21 litres per 300 km. Expect about $11.01 per 100 km at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
What to expect from the Forte
As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. At 425 litres, the trunk fits a family's bags for a long weekend.
Who the Forte suits
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
Rent the Forte for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. If the Forte is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
Money matters
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.01 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$2,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Year and trim
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
Ruby and the Forte
Ruby is about 249 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area. We rent from Toronto only. If your trip to Ruby starts in the Toronto area, rent the car here.
