Kia Forte Arrives to Philippines in Three Body Styles

MANILA: Remember, good things come in three. Yes, it is not just one but three body styles in which Kia has introduced its Forte and especially for its balletic Filipinos. The 5-door hatch, 4-door sedan, and 2-door koup will be available with the official distributor of Kia in Philippines, the Columbian Autocar Corporation.

“The three Forte variants relate to different markets but at the end of the day, they all carry the renowned Kia name and with it is a guarantee of refreshing interiors, compelling styles, and powerful road performance. The all-new Forte truly exudes a dynamic presence on the road and we can’t wait for everyone to try a different driving experience aboard any of the three Forte variants.” said Ginia R. Domingo, president of Columbian Autocar Corporation.

The Forte family starts with a perky hatch for which Kia says that it would best suit those who have a “lifestyle that demands action and function.” Not only it gets more feature inside but also has upgraded interiors with leather trim. Further, it receives an infotainment system and 2.0-litre NU engine which produces 161 PS of power and 194 Nm of torque.

Now comes the sizzling sedan which features Kia's latest technology for electronic power steering system, called the Flex Steer system. This system allows to choose between three modes; Comfort, Normal, and Sport each with its own level of steering assistance. The engine that supplies power to this sedan is the 1.6-liter Gamma engine that spurts out 130 PS and 157 Nm.

The last but the appealing Koup which not only flaunts its sporting 2-door, but also gets apparent styling treatments which comprise of frameless doors, dashing rear windshield, and 17-inch alloy wheels. It also brings the dual zone full auto climate control and a cultures entertainment panel with rear view camera. Talking technical, the Koup is powered by the same engine as of the hatch and delivers same performance.

With its own convenience features, the Forte provides a wide choice. So before you decide your Forte, let me tell you the price tags each come with. The sedan is for PHP 965,000 while you can catch the hatch for PHP 1,190,000 and Koup can be all yours by spending PHP 1,090,000.
