The new swoopy profile is the byproduct of the gained width and length. Resulting in an elongated roofline, it gets a whole new look.

The display is simple and straightforward. The infotainment system is also top-notch. From the user-friendly climate control knobs to the tambour-covered console storage, the finishing and detailing are nicely done. The Forte Koup is two-door while the Forte hatchback is a five-door sedan. The cockpit has a good finishing coupled with a higher-grade plastic.
The 2015 Kia Forte comes with a choice for the heartbeat of the powertrains. There is a 1.8-liter 148 hp four-cylinder engine and a 2.0-liter 173 hp four-cylinder engine.

The handling is reasonably well with three different modes of steering boost present in the form of buttons on the steering wheel.
2015 Kia Forte Manual Features & Reviews
An excellent job has been done at increasing the passenger space by lowering the roofline gracefully. Yet, it wound up becoming a curse for taller passengers. In other words, the space for passengers is noticeable but there is not enough headroom for the taller ones. The doors are also designed and shaped in a way that allows easy entry and exit. Forte is better at soaking up roughness from the uneven pavement as compared to the predecessors.
Forte’sprevious three-star rating for the frontal impact score has upgraded to a four-star rating for the 2015 Kia Forte Owners Manual. The basic features that the buyers get by default include some cool ones too. They include power windows, air conditioning, audio controls for the steering wheel, and the satellite radio with a free trial of three months. The EX model is equipped with a rearview camera along with a step towards the innovative future. EX gets a new version of UVO that successfully discards the need for connected links to Google map for smartphones, a software of Microsoft. Buyers also get options for LED taillamps, pushbutton start, a ventilated driver seat, and leather trim. The LCD screen does not dash Forte look disorganized in the more expensive Optima instead looks perfect.
The security scores failed the 2015 Kia Forte. Even after the redesigning, the 2015 Kia Forte could only hop up to “marginal” IIHS small overlap rating from the “poor” rating. The comfort that is expected from a not-so-quick vehicle is also not up to the mark. Moreover, increasing the width and length calls for working on the height as well. At times, the 2015 Kia Forte Owners Manual engine can become quite noisy as well.
