2021 Kia Forte: Thrills on the Road

Whether you stick with the standard 2.0L 4-cylinder engine or upgrade to the available 201 horsepower turbocharged engine, you’ll have a fun drive when behind the wheel of the 2021 Kia Forte.

Aside from the intense power under the hood, this Kia sedan offers the available Drive Mode Select system as well as two capable transmission options to cultivate a dynamic driving experience. The standard 6-speed manual transmission gives you an engaging 3-pedal drive.

However, you could choose the available 7-speed Dual-Clutch Automatic Transmission with steering wheel mounted paddle shifters. This gives you the more relaxing drive of an automatic transmission with the option to take control of gear shifting when you want it.
