2009 Kia Forte breaks cover, replacing Spectra


The Kia Spectra can be considered a bit of a flop. Not a bad car, but it just couldn’t compete with the usual Japanese nameplates. So Kia has completely redesigned their new compact offering, calling it the Forte.

The 2009 Kia Forte is a good-looking model, better than the Hyundai Elantra from which it is obviously derived. Engines will most likely be carryovers from the existing Spectra, namely a 1.6L and a 2.0L.
