2019 Kia Forte FE

The "I’m an Adult Now" Starter Pack

• Fuel Efficiency: This Forte gets an EPA-estimated 30 city / 40 highway MPG. It’s so efficient that you’ll actually forget which side the gas cap is on—it's the left one, by the way.

• Tech for People Who Can't Read Maps: It features a standard 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. This means you can have Siri or Google tell you exactly where you're going wrong in life, step-by-step.

• Interior Space: It has 15.3 cubic feet of trunk space, which is more than a Toyota Corolla. That’s enough room for all your groceries, several sets of golf clubs, or the lingering sense of regret from your last breakup.

• Drive Wise Suite: Standard safety includes Forward Collision Warning and Lane Keeping Assist. It’s like having a very polite co-pilot who doesn't mind that you're singing Taylor Swift at the top of your lungs while drifting slightly out of your lane.

• Driver Attention Warning: It will literally tell you if it thinks you're getting tired. It’s essentially a car that says, "Hey buddy, maybe a coffee would be better than an insurance claim right now."

• Engine: A 2.0L 4-cylinder engine pushing out 147 horsepower. Is it a race car? No. Will it beat a lawnmower in a drag race? Absolutely.

• Transmission: It uses an Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT) designed to feel like a traditional automatic without the weird "rubber-band" feeling of older CVTs.
