2020 Kia Forte Review
Redesigned just last year, the Kia Forte is one of the most compelling small sedans around. Much of that appeal stems from the car's value. Even the base 2020 Forte is equipped with plenty of the latest advanced driver safety features, for instance, and the midpriced GT-Line comes with far more equipment than similarly priced sedans. At the top of the ladder is the new Forte GT, which ups the performance quotient at a lower price than other sporty small sedans.
Under the hood of the 2020 Forte GT is a capable turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine making 201 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque. This little power unit can be found in quite a few other Kia and Hyundai products, and in every application we appreciate its punchy output. In the Forte, it will provide a welcome bump up from the standard 147-hp engine.
The Honda Civic is one of the Forte's chief competitors. While the Forte offers some features the Civic doesn't, you will find it comes up a little short on refinement. The ride quality isn't as smooth as the Civic's, and it's a little less fun to drive. It's a similar story when cross-shopping the Mazda 3. But we're talking small degrees of difference, and the Forte's value easily makes up for it. Overall, we think the 2020 Forte is an excellent small sedan and recommend it to anyone who desires a tech-heavy small car without a sky-high price tag.
Notably, the 2020 Kia Forte is a featured vehicle in our Cheapest New Cars article.
Our verdict
7.9 / 10How does it drive?
7.0We're also not overly impressed with the Forte's handling. The steering weight is fine but offers little feedback, and the on-center feel is vague. While the Forte corners relatively flat, it can get unsettled by midcorner bumps.
How comfortable is it?
8.0The biggest knock against the Forte here is its stiff suspension. It's OK on rough paving or shallow imperfections, but it struggles to smooth out larger bumps. The rear suspension, in particular, is especially troubled by uneven bumps.
How’s the interior?
8.0The front seat is roomy with plenty of knee and shoulder room. Taller drivers have sufficient headroom too. Rear-seat knee room falls short compared to class leaders (and the hard plastic seatbacks don't help), but headroom will only run out for passengers over 6 feet tall.
How’s the tech?
8.0Every Forte comes with forward collision mitigation, and a blind-spot monitor is available on midtier trims and above. It's a little disappointing that adaptive cruise is only available as an option on the highest trim level. It's standard on many competitors. All systems tested worked well and avoided false alerts.
How’s the storage?
8.5The car-seat anchor points for child safety seats are clearly marked, and the anchors sit close to the surface of the cushions, making them easy to access. The somewhat limited rear seat room means bulky rear-facing seats might interfere with front seat movement.
How economical is it?
9.0Is it a good value?
9.0Kia and its corporate cousin, Hyundai, offer the best warranty in the business right now, with six years/60,000 miles of basic coverage and 10 years/100,000 miles for the powertrain. Roadside assistance, offered for five years/60,000 miles, is also good for the class, though Hyundai edges it out slightly with unlimited mileage over the same period.
Wildcard
7.0Which Forte does Edmunds recommend?
Kia Forte models
The 2020 Kia Forte is a compact sedan available in five trim levels: FE, LXS, GT-Line, EX and GT. All models except the GT are powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (147 horsepower, 132 lb-ft of torque). A six-speed manual transmission comes with the FE. A continuously variable automatic transmission is optional for the FE and standard issue on other trim levels with this engine. The GT is driven by a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder (201 hp, 195 lb-ft) and your choice between a six-speed manual or a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic.
Standard features on the FE include 15-inch steel wheels, automatic headlights, height-adjustable front seats, an 8-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a four-speaker audio system with a USB port. The FE also comes with a rearview camera, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning and lane keeping assist.
Moving up to the LXS adds 16-inch alloy wheels, selectable drive modes, a 60/40-split folding rear seat, and soft-touch dash and door surfaces.
The GT-Line dresses the exterior with black accents, 17-inch wheels and a rear spoiler, plus luxury upgrades that include heated mirrors, keyless entry and ignition, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a rear armrest, a six-speaker audio system, a blind-spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert, and cloth upholstery with simulated-leather side bolsters.
The EX trim doesn't have the GT-Line's unique exterior trim but includes most of its convenience features. It also adds 17-inch wheels, dual-zone automatic climate control, rear air vents, a power-adjustable driver's seat, heated and ventilated front seats, simulated leather upholstery, two charge-only USB ports and satellite radio.
While it builds off the GT-Line's equipment, the GT does not come standard with the blind-spot monitor. However, it does include sporty upgrades such as the more powerful engine, 18-inch wheels, a fully independent rear suspension, larger front brakes and dual exhaust pipes. It also adds LED headlights, automatic high-beam control, ambient interior lighting, rear air vents, two USB charging ports and satellite radio. Models with the dual-clutch transmission also get shift paddles. Stickier Michelin Pilot Sport summer performance tires are optional.
The top three trims are available with an upgrade package that adds a sunroof, wireless charging pad and eight-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system. From there, the additional features differ. The GT-Line's Premium package also includes two USB chargers, voice recognition and satellite radio, while the EX's Special Edition package equips a rear spoiler and a navigation system. The GT's GT2 package tacks on the rest of the features from the GT-Line and EX models (minus dual-zone climate control, which is a stand-alone option for the GT-Line and the GT), alongside a sliding armrest and adaptive cruise control.

Most helpful consumer reviews
I recently switch back to a sedan and I wanted something that was daily driver, didn't break the bank, was safe, and fun to drive. KIA has out done themselves with the GT with GT2 package, the car sounds great for a 4 cylinder engine, the turbo really pulls when you get on the accelerator and it really sticks in the corners as well. Plus they loaded this trim and package with all the features that competitors have for a cheaper price! I find myself wanting to be the driver of the household again instead of the co-pilot.
I come from driving a 2015 Subaru Legacy. The car of the car and space is a bit smaller from the Subaru but it can fit 5 people in the car as my old Subaru. The car feels great, lightweight and the new CVT or IVT as Kia calls it, it feels better than Subaru's CVT. This car does not feel slow for carrying a CVT in their engine. Probably car without a CVT will be faster but for what it is, it does feel agile and good to drive. Technology wise, it has a lot of it, from Apple Car Play and Android Auto, to one of the best lane keep assist assistance. The car does not jerk the steering wheel for you like other LKA that I have driven and it is not annoying that keeps beeping all the time. The infotainment system is easy to read and understand, and so is the steering wheel where the location of the buttons and use of them are located just feels intuitive. The car also has three modes, Normal, Sport, Smart. Smart is the one that gives me the most gas mileage, and is not like other ECO modes that other cars have, the car will still accelerate quick if needed. With a mix of highway and city driving I am getting 37mpg, on my trip in Christmas to visit my family and it was all highway driving it gave me around 47mpg!! I am so happy with this car as also when I switch it to Sport mode when entering an intersection from a full stop it does deliver, and it doesn't make me worry if the car will not accelerate fast enough, because it does! The only downside for me is the stiffness of the car compared to the Subaru. I have gotten use it now but it was something that took me a bit to get used to. Love this car and I do highly recommended!! I do think if I should have gone for the GT because of the power but I am happy with my car and the gas mileage as a faster car will feel great but it would hurt my pocket more.
Lovely car.. Great specs for it's class and not too bad on the pricing at all !!! Unbeatable Kia warranty adds to the cake
Was looking for a car for my commute that wouldn't break the bank when I included my negative equity into the loan. This car is so perfect for me. It's Pretty quick comfortable to ride in and has all the amenities the competitors have but a price that is far cheaper than the otters. Give this car a least a test drive if your in the market. It handlers amazing and you will not be disappointed.

Kia Forte vs. the competition
Kia Forte vs. Hyundai Elantra
On the surface, the Forte and the Hyundai Elantra seem like they should be essentially the same. They share a platform and are driven by the same powertrains, and the price range and trim breakdown are virtually identical. The execution, however, reveals a vast gulf between the two in terms of quality. In short, the Forte is quicker, has more trunk space, and boasts seats that are far more comfortable. The Forte is clearly the superior vehicle.
Kia Forte vs. Honda Civic
The Honda Civic is an outstanding small sedan, with more room and better performance than any rival. The interior is so spacious the EPA classifies it as a midsize, and its 0-60 mph time of 6.8 seconds is closer to the times of rivals that are powered by upgraded engines. All around, the Civic is an excellent machine with very few faults.
Kia Forte vs. Kia Optima
As a midsize sedan, the Kia Optima is one size class larger than the Forte. So by choosing the Optima, you'd bypass one of the Forte's most significant flaws: the lack of rear legroom. The Optimat also offers a decent amount of headroom too. The powertrain selection is also more diverse, with three standard engines available, as well as a hybrid and a plug-in hybrid. As expected of a larger car, the Optima is more expensive than the Forte when matched feature to feature.

2020 Kia Forte GT First Look
The Sporty Small Sedan Has Been Forte-fied
by Edmunds , Edmunds • November 1st, 2018At this year's SEMA tuner show in Las Vegas, corporate siblings Hyundai and Kia introduced — amid the usual raft of custom-built show cars — some real consumer-oriented products. Hyundai unveiled dealer-installed upgrades for the Veloster, including a Borla exhaust and sport shifter kit for the manual transmission. But the bigger news for fans of affordable fun cars came from Kia.
The 2020 Kia Forte GT is a new trim level aimed at driving enthusiasts who want a small and practical sedan. It receives numerous performance and aesthetic upgrades, along with a ton of technology features and equipment. Will the Forte GT set a new standard for sporty little sedans? We're eager to find out.
The Oily Bits
Under the hood of the 2020 Forte GT hides a capable turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder, making 201 horsepower and 195 pound-feet of torque. This little power unit can be found in quite a few other Kia and Hyundai products, from the Kia Soul hatchback to the hefty Hyundai Tucson SUV, and in every application we appreciate its punchy output. In the Forte, it will provide a welcome bump up from the standard 147-hp engine.
The more powerful motor will pair with either a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic or a six-speed manual transmission. While the manual will come as a pleasant surprise to a small but passionate segment of shoppers, the automatic is a bit of a question mark for us here. We've had inconsistent experiences with its impact on drivability in different vehicles. In fact, this transmission's tendency to act out at low speeds is often a sore spot in otherwise desirable cars from Hyundai and Kia.
That said, we didn't have any notable issues with the seven-speed in the 2019 Hyundai Veloster Turbo, which has essentially the same powertrain as the Forte GT. We'll keep our fingers crossed that the kinks have been ironed out.
Other upgrades include a fully independent rear suspension, larger front disc brakes, thicker sway bars and stickier Michelin Pilot Sport summer tires. In his First Drive, our own Mark Takahashi said that the standard Forte delivered better-than-average driving dynamics for the class, so our hopes for the GT trim are sky-high.
The Dry Bits
The GT will be the Forte's top trim level, positioned above the EX. In addition to performance styling cues inside and out — including a unique grille and side sills, a flat-bottomed steering wheel and contrast stitching — the GT has quite a few practical niceties. You get LED interior lighting, a 320-watt Harman Kardon stereo, wireless charging and safety technologies such as forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, lane keeping assist and a blind-spot monitor.
This features load has slightly fewer items than what the EX comes with, but fear not. There's also a GT2 package, which adds adaptive cruise control and heated and ventilated leatherette seats with 10-way power adjustment for the driver. That gives you every feature available on the Forte, not to mention more than some larger and pricier vehicles.
A lesser "GT Line" trim will also be available. It includes the GT's appearance and interior equipment but ditches all the performance upgrades in favor of the standard engine, transmission and suspension.
Pricing and Availability
There's no word yet on pricing for the 2020 Kia Forte GT, but we expect it to do battle with the stalwart Honda Civic Si somewhere in the mid-$20,000s. Kia is officially calling this a 2020 model, so don't expect to see it in showrooms until later in 2019.

Should I lease or buy a 2020 Kia Forte?
Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
