Sitting on an all-new chassis that is longer, wider and lower than the previous-generation Forte, the all-new third-generation Kia Forte will offer more room, more performance and more premium amenities when it’s expected to go on sale in the first quarter of 2013. The all-new 2014 Forte will be offered in LX and EX variants with a choice of an efficient 1.8-liter engine or a more powerful 2.0-liter engine.
