Kia Forte replaces Spectra with refined Forte for small sedans
Kia launches the 2010 Forte as a compact rival to the Toyota Corolla and Honda Civic, priced from 14390 with destination charge, offering stronger power than Civics, a 10 year 100000 mile warranty, and standard safety gear. It replaces the Spectra, adds refined ride, and shows aggressive pricing under Japanese rivals. The base Forte lacks air conditioning, adding 1590, and test drives note strong acceleration from the 2.4 liter engine on SX models with torque of 168 lb-ft.
