Default New Kia Forte based on the Kia Koup concept

Kia Forte





Kia has released official photos of the new Forte, a C-segment sedan for the global market. Developed under the 'dynamic, futuristic sedan' theme, the Forte will replace the Cerato in Europe and Korea, and the Spectra in the US market. Influenced by the Kia Koup concept shown at the 2008 New York Auto Show, the new car's design features an all new lower front grille and head- and taillamp units. With its robust surface volume, distinctive 'check' bodyside character (which starts around the base of A-pillar and wraps around the base of the DLO to the trunk) and its distinctive front face, the Forte aims differentiate Kia from its sister company Hyundai as the Korean brand looks to attract active younger buyers. Kia will offer a 1.6 and 2.0-liter gasoline engines in the new car, though diesel powerplants are under consideration for future models. The Forte will be available in the Korean market in August.
