    Specs, explained

    Its 2.0L 4-cylinder drives through 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.

    At 7.1 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 21 litres of fuel. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $11.01 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,050 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

    How big it is

    Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. The EPA lists 425 litres for luggage, roughly a family's bags for a long weekend.

    When the Forte makes sense

    It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

    A longer test drive

    Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the Forte for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

    The cost of driving it

    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. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $110.10 at our price setting.

    Choosing the right one

    Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
