Kia debuts sporty and fuel-efficient compact sedan

SPORTING stylish and aggressive design cues, the new Kia Forte firmly establishes itself as a strong contender in its segment. Forte blends Kia’s exciting new design direction under the prime craftsmanship of Peter Schreyer, Kia Motors’ chief design officer, with a multitude of standard features.

The Kia-engineered body achieves high torsional stiffness giving Forte better handling, smoother ride quality and greater refinement than its competitors, with a specially tuned suspension adjusted perfectly for responsive handling on curvy roads. Additional refinements are fitted throughout Forte to help ensure a comfortable ride with good noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) reduction qualities.

Built on a front-wheel-drive unibody frame, Forte utilizes an independent front suspension with MacPherson struts and a stabilizer bar and torsion beam rear suspension with struts and coil springs. This combination helps provide the optimal balance of handling and comfort. An engine-speed-sensitive, power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering system adds the finishing touch for precise handling by providing the most advantageous amount of assist for varying road conditions.

The SX model also features larger front brakes for improved stopping capabilities.
