Buying the 2021 Kia Forte EX+

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2021 Kia Forte EX+ for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. The 2021 Kia Forte EX+ for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.

Before you sign for the Forte

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 69 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine, unknown or other and electrical system; have those parts checked. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

Under the hood

The engine is the 2.0L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive and an automatic (CVT). It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

It is rated at 7.1 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 21 litres. That works out to about $11.01 per 100 km at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Living with the Forte

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. For luggage, 425 litres means a family's bags for a long weekend.

Who it is for

It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Try before you buy

Try the Forte on your commute, then decide. Rent the Forte for a week and see how it fits your life. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.

What it costs to run

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. 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.

Which one to look for

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
