At the peak of interest in SUVs, as well as cars with electric and hybrid drives, the Korean brand Kia has focused its efforts on upgrading the most popular gasoline-powered models. In 2021, a compact budget-level sedan, which in the world market will become known as the “Kia Forte 2022”, received restyling.

The new version in the status of an inexpensive and practical family car is identified by a new set of LED optics units, a modified brand logo and a front bumper.

Appearance

Despite the official status of a budget car, the 2022 Kia Forte sedan is identical to its higher class counterparts in terms of exterior attractiveness, body design and a significant amount of presentability.

From the front, the new generation sedan looks sporty and a bit aggressive. In sight:

  • wide relief edges of a cover of a small-sized engine compartment;
  • recognizable configuration and textured large-mesh mesh of small-format radiator lining;
  • blocks of head multifunctional xenon optics combined with running lights;
  • stepped bumper profile with two front brake circuit vents.

The composition of the front end is completed by a large-format bumper with a diagonal arrangement of fog LEDs. The lack of "ceremonial" chrome and other decorative accents compensates for the variety of stepped and wave body reliefs.

In stock: a coupe-shaped slope of the domed roof, wedge-shaped mirrors with additional direction indicators, muscular sidewalls and stepped contours of voluminous wheel arches with interesting 17-inch silver wheels.

The rear side of the sedan body demonstrates the pronounced features of the Euro-Asian design style. Positive emotions are generated by:

  • equipped with a corporate logo, LED jumper and internal sections of parking lights and a niche for a registration plate, the luggage compartment lid;
  • wide bumper supplemented with foglights and outlet diffusers;
  • duplicating the shape of the front cladding diagonal plastic body kit.

According to body design experts, the post-styling version of the Kia Forte 2022 sedan looks modern and dynamic for its class.

Interior

In relation to the corporate prototype of the Cerato series, the five-seat saloon of the modernized sedan can offer several options for a higher quality leatherine or fabric interior, wide functionality and improved on-board equipment.

In particular, the responsibilities of analog tidy are assigned to a digital monitor, and the diagonal of the command multimedia console display will be increased from 8 to 10 inches. The front panel is equipped with a horizontal pair of ventilation deflectors and a remote control for activating a number of on-board options. The tunnel adjacent to the dashboard consists of a compact gear lever, a small number of organizers and a container for small luggage combined with a convenient armrest.

The list of on-board electronics includes Kia Drive Wise safe driving systems, road marking monitoring, and collision avoidance with careless pedestrians. Cruise control, emergency braking assistant and contactless parking sensors will be offered in the list of paid options.

Initially comfortable and well-shaped pilot seats are equipped with lateral support elements, adjustment ranges, and in the top version - heating and ventilation circuits. The limited service potential of the rear sofa is partially offset by an increased amount of personal space for each of the three riders.

The novelty still offers future car owners a useful feature of increasing the regular volume of the luggage compartment from 385 to 1494 liters by laying the sofa back into the floor recess.

Specifications

Overall dimensions of the upgraded compact sedan, in terms of length, width and height (4641 x 1801 and 1435 mm), in the new version are left unchanged.
