Buying the 2021 Kia Forte EX

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2021 Kia Forte EX for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before buying the 2021 Kia Forte EX, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

What to check on the Forte

Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

What the specs mean

Power comes from the 2.0L 4-cylinder, driving 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.

The combined figure, 7.1 L/100 km, means roughly 21 litres for 300 km. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $11.01. The EPA estimates US$2,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Good uses for the Forte

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

Size and space

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. In plain terms, its 425 litres of luggage space hold a family's bags for a long weekend.

Rent it for a week first

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. A week with the Forte answers more than any brochure.

Narrowing it down

Compare the EX with the other trims of the same year before you decide. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.

Running costs

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