Trim Levels
The new 2019 Kia Forte comes in four trim levels: FE, LXS, S, and EX. The FE offers the lowest starting price of the four and comes with standard features like automatic headlights, 15-inch wheels, an 8-inch touchscreen, and dual-zone automatic climate control. The LXS trim steps things up with extra color options, standard cruise control, and a 60/40 split rear seat. The S trim offers 17-inch wheels, fog lights, and the new UVO eServices infotainment system. The EX is the top trim and adds a hands-free trunk, two extra USB charging ports, and a smart key with a push-button engine start.
Engine
UVO eServices infotainment system. The EX is the top trim and adds a hands-free trunk, two extra USB charging ports, and a smart key with a push-button engine start. Engine (Power) Under the hood of the 2019 Forte, you'll find a 2.0-liter I-4 engine that gives you 147 horsepower and 132 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed manual transmission comes standard on the FE trim, but you can upgrade to the new Intelligent Continuously Variable Transmission, or IVT. This automatic transmission uses artificial gears to avoid the droning noise of a first-generation CVT but doesn't sacrifice fuel efficiency: this powertrain gets an estimated 41 highway and 31 city mpg.
