Have no idea what this trim is or what it contains. Why they are different in Canada vs US is beyond me. Should be the same for all of North America. I do know that there are way too many trim levels in the Forte compared to the Elantra and they gouge you with the push to start making you buy the Premium trim level to get it.

I have a 2022 GT-Line on order. Should be here in about six weeks. Mine has both premium packages so I'll get 10-way power seats, ventilated seats and rear AC vents - all things pretty uncommon in the compact class. Plus a Harman-Kardon premium sound system and literally every option and feature you'd expect in a much more expensive car - all for 25K (and my dealer isn't going to mark it up over MSRP). The Forte is a really solid deal. My only gripe is the ride is too firm on rough roads, but I can live with that. Wish they'd tuned it a little softer and left the sport suspension for the GT.

Great review! I'm impressed with this 2022 Forte. Which one would you say is better, 2022 Forte or 2022 Corolla?
@WTFCRLT12 жыл бұрын
I prefer the steering in the Forte as well as the exterior Styling, however the Corolla 2.0 makes over 20 more horsepower and you can get them in a manual transmission. It’s all about preference. The Forte 2.0 makes more power than the base 1.8 engine from Toyota so it really all depends on the trim level. Personally, I’d probably go with the Forte GT with the manual bc it has over 200hp and costs only $1000 over the Corolla SE with the manual and I think the performance and styling upgrades are worth the $1000. If we’re talking about base models with the CVT, I’d go with whichever I could get a better deal on tbh.

This is based on the 2017-2020 Hyundai Elantra. Same platform and engine. Same transmission. I don't know why Forte is always 1 generation behind. Anyway, I had a 2018 Elantra. I never had complaints about the power from this 2.0L. It's a peppy engine that gets amazing mileage. I'm glad they replaced the awful 6-spd automatic from the earlier models with this new smoother CVT.

First time I find you on line and I appreciate your complete test with what interest normal people especially the driving one with no music real audio seems almost I drive it personally! Suggestions? Do not reed all accessories just good quality rec who is interested can easily still the imagine and read it calmly, underline only some specialties. I agree with lot comments these cars are about price this trim or FE without fancy accessories more than GT one charged with extras could be a deal or I will upgrade for superior car.

Bought my Kia Forte last month and was liking the performance and styling but then I got the bad news with news reports out of Milwaukee which detailed how easy it was to steal the car since Kia/Hyundai decided not to include a ignition kill switch in the steering column. Its so easy in fact that high schoolers were easily stealing the cars "especially the Forte" after just watching videos on how to do it and then going on joy rides. W.T.F. Kia/Hyundai, you should really do a recall and get this fixed.

I have always enjoyed the KIA Forte videos as for the money you get lots of features but a car that has a reputation for a high level of "thefts" due to the engineers at KIA/Hyundai not incorporating a "ignition kill switch" coulf be a deal breaker indeed! Has KIA/Hyundai finally installed a "ignition kill switch"? Pleas advise. Thank you...
