Meet the third and most powerful member of the completely redesigned Kia Forte lineup: The all-new two-door 2014 Forte Koup SX, which made its debut today at the New York Auto Show, boasts a 1.6L gasoline direct-injected (GDI) turbocharged four-cylinder engine rated at 201 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque.
A 173-horsepower, 2.0L Forte Koup EX is also available. Both models are scheduled to arrive in showrooms in the fourth quarter of 2013.
Lower, longer, and wider than its predecessor, with the flowing roofline of a genuine sports coupe, the 2014 Kia Forte Koup can be enhanced with LED positioning lights and taillights, while 18” wheels can replace the standard 17” units. A rear valance with available twin stainless steel exhaust tips maintains the car's sporty demeanour.
Meanwhile, the sharper cockpit gets premium materials and soft-touch points, large white-on-black gauges nestled deeply into the instrument cluster, along with a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob.
