TrueDelta Reviews the Available Features of the 2018 Kia Forte

2018 Kia Forte Available Features: Pros
YearComment
2019 The list of reasons to buy a Forte begins with a traditional Kia forte: more features than you'll find on competitors at a given price point. Want ventilated as well as heated front seats in a compact car? You cannot get this formerly high-end feature in a Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla. It's standard on the Forte EX, the top trim with the 147-horsepower 2.0-liter base engine, and optional on the new-for-2020, more performance-oriented Forte GT, which has a 201-horsepower turbocharged 1.6-liter engine. You cannot get cow-sourced leather seating surfaces in a Forte. Instead, Kia offers synthetic leather (standard on the EX, optional on the GT) that (unlike some) doesn't come close to passing as the real thing. Honda still offers real leather but Toyota, like Kia, only offers synthetic. Of the three, only the Honda offers heated rear seats. The Forte isn't quite the class leader in comfort features. A VW Jetta SEL Premium has all of the above, plus a heated steering wheel. But the Jetta is also considerably more expensive. As is becoming increasingly common, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, and lane keep assist are standard even on the least expensive Forte. Blind spot warning is standard on the GT-Line (sport-look but 147 horsepower), EX, and GT. But if you want adaptive cruise control for 2020 you'll have to spring for a fully optioned Forte GT--this feature is no longer offered on the EX. Nav is offered, but only on the EX in a "Special Edition" package that also includes a sunroof and a 360-watt Harman Kardon audio system. This package might only be offered for a limited time, as it's not currently shown on Kia's consumer site. The sunroof and audio system are also offered on the GT-Line and GT. Ultimately, we return to the ventilated front seats. If you want them in a new sedan that lists for less than that Jetta SEL Premium's $28,590, I believe the $22,915 Forte EX is your only option. see full Kia Forte review
