The Kia Forte is the perfect car for various lifestyles around Newburgh, New York. Not only is it sporty and fun, but it also provides you with practical features that make life easier. At Healey Kia, we look forward to showing you how the Kia Forte can take your drives to the next level.
Technology Features
The entry-level Kia Forte LX comes with an eight-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay®, and Android Auto™. Choosing the GT-Line or another higher trim level will mean getting a 10.25-inch touchscreen instead. Either way, we think the infotainment system in the Kia Forte is easy to use. On select models, this vehicle has other exciting technology upgrades, such as an eight-speaker sound system, rear USB ports, and a wireless charging pad.
Safety Highlights
A suite of advanced safety features comes standard on every new Kia Forte. Useful features include forward-collision mitigation, lane-keeping assist, driver attention monitoring, and lane departure warning. Optional on the LXS trim and standard on those above it are extras, such as blind-spot monitoring and a safe exit system. Higher trim levels go even further to protect you when driving around Poughkeepsie, adding features like adaptive cruise control as well as pedestrian and cyclist collision avoidance.
Interior Design
There are comfortable seats for up to five passengers inside the new Kia Forte. You will find plenty of leg and headroom in both rows, and the trunk provides a roomy 15.3 cubic feet for your gear. The Kia Forte is available with a hands-free trunk lid to make accessing that space even easier. You can find available features, such as dual-zone automatic climate control, a push-button start, and synthetic leather upholstery. You can also get front seats that are both heated and ventilated, helping you stay comfortable no matter the season you are driving around Middletown. If you bring home the Kia Forte GT, you get black synthetic leather upholstery with exciting red stitching.
Performance
There are two engines available for the new Kia Forte, both of which provide you with a blend of efficiency and power. A 2.0-liter four-cylinder is standard, providing you with 147 horsepower and 132 pound-feet of torque. This engine, paired with a continuously variable transmission, can provide up to 30 miles per gallon in the city and 41 miles per gallon on the highway. The second powertrain option is a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder that creates 201 horsepower and 195 pound-feet of torque. For this engine, the Kia Forte comes with either a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic or a six-speed manual transmission. The top GT trim level comes exclusively with this powertrain, and it also has a sport-tuned suspension to add to your enjoyment when driving around Kingston, New York.
Exterior Design
The Kia Forte has a sophisticated exterior design that offers practical and stylish features. You can choose from paint options such as Fire Orange, Aurora Black, and Sporty Blue to show off your personality. If you choose the GT-Line, your Kia Forte will be home to 17-inch alloy wheels, LED daytime running lights, LED fog lights, and LED taillights. The top GT trim level adds LED headlights to the equation as well. It also has 18-inch alloy wheels to ride around on. These are only a few of the exciting exterior features available.
