We saw some serious updates to the popular Kia Forte last year, from new design elements and an updated cabin to a long list of advanced standard safety systems. The 2023 Kia Forte remains mostly unchanged, but it now has a more streamlined trim lineup to make it easier than ever to find your perfect new car.

The updated 2023 Forte no longer offers the extra-cost GT Technology Package, which included a host of smart safety and tech features. Instead, helpful systems like Highway Driving Assist and Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control are now standard on the Forte GT model with a Dual-Clutch Transmission (DCT). All in all, the new Kia Forte is available at five trims: LX, LXS, GT-Line, GT, and GT Manual.

If you want the most power from your new Forte, opt for those GT or GT Manual models. These brawny sedans have a turbocharged four-cylinder engine working under the hood to deliver a thrilling 201 horsepower. You’ll get to choose between a seven-speed automatic DCT or a six-speed manual for your ideal shifting. Visually, the Forte GT trims (as well as the GT-Line) have elevated body styling via a rear spoiler, Gloss Black side mirrors, LED daytime running lights, LED fog lights, and 17- or 18-inch wheels.
