The 2021 Kia Forte GT for buyers

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2021 Kia Forte GT; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page helps you judge the 2021 Kia Forte GT before you buy one anywhere.

A buyer's checks

NHTSA has 69 owner complaints on file, mostly about engine, unknown or other and electrical system. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

What the figures tell you

Power: the 2.0L 4-cylinder; drive: 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.

The EPA rates it at 7.1 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 21 litres. For 1,000 km, budget about $110.10 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

A good match for

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

What to expect from the Forte

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. Its 425 litres of luggage space fit a family's bags for a long weekend.

Rent it for a week first

Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. A week with the Forte answers more than any brochure.

Year and trim

Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

What it costs to run

The EPA estimates US$2,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. 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.
