Under the hood

Its 2.0L 4-cylinder drives through an automatic (CVT). It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

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. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,050 a year for 15,000 miles.

Size and space

As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Luggage space is 425 litres, enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.

Good uses for the Forte

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

A longer test drive

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Try the Forte on your commute, then decide.

Money matters

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

Narrowing it down

Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. 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.
