Description

Introduction Kia Forte is all-new for 2014.The 2014 Kia Forte was launched as a four-door sedan, while the 2014 Forte 5-Door hatchback joins the lineup late in the model year (late summer 2013). As the compact car segment expands to dominate the US market, manufacturers are increasingly recalibrating their offerings to provide style, luxury and safety at a level undreamt of just a few years ago in small cars.While the size of vehicles (and their impact on the environment) shrinks in response to consumers' changing needs, the expectation now is of elevated levels of equipment, sophistication and elegance.This explains Kia's accelerated development cycle on its Forte model.This new fifth generation, 2014 Forte has come out just three-and-a-half years after the appearance of its predecessor.When that car emerged, the marketplace was not as thronged with comprehensively equipped, stylish offerings as it is now, so the new Forte's timing could not be better.Kia says its new Forte was designed to satisfy both sides of the brain: the creative and the practical.

Interior Interior ambiance is one of the big challenges facing compact cars.Consumers can easily adapt to smaller exterior dimensions, but they will notice cheesy interior details for the life of the car.Kia's designers know this, and they've worked hard to provide an upscale experience. The dash surface features a ripple effect on the passenger side (echoed in the door panel) to provide character, while the instrument binnacle and center console feature seams and contours designed to break up any monotonous surface expanse.Angled 10-degrees toward the driver for a more-intimate interface, the center console is clean and uncluttered. The instruments themselves are large and bright, and the various control buttons have a pleasing sense to their operation.Much of the molded surface is coated in a nano paint treatment which is slightly rubbery to the touch, mitigating the usual criticisms about hard moldings. Considerable detail abounds in the door panels, where distinct concavities house the armrests and window controls.As you'd expect from a car with sporty pretensions, the steering wheel is a three-spoke design with contrasting colors, and it's leather wrapped in the EX model.
