With the new generation of Kia Forte , Kia takes a step forward in terms of quality of finish, layout and design. At the Chicago Auto Show have presented the five-door body replacing the previous Forte5. It seems that this will not generate a coupé, so that the successor Koup could run out.
Forte 5p is a model equivalent to Kia Cee’d concept European and size, but sharing many elements. Both the exterior and interior designs present themselves and it is difficult to find similarities between them. The Kia Forte will be marketed in virtually the entire globe except Europe, where the terrain and Kia Cee’d has a satisfactory level of sales. Will also be the case that in some markets both coexist, such as the Russian.
The initial engine range for the U.S. only covers two blocks of gasoline with a certain level of performance. The smallest block develops 170 hp while the supercharged goes up to 201 hp. In both series is the automatic gearbox. For other regions will also ship with a 1.6 GDI and a 1.8i 16v, 1.6 CRDI diesel addition.
