NY Show 2009 Highlights: 2010 Kia Forte Koup



    The 2010 Kia Forte Koup shares its front-wheel drive unibody platform with the Forte sedan, but manages to be slightly shorter in height and length than the four-door. It also shares the Forte's engine lineup consisting of an EX trim level base 2.0L four-cylinder (156-hp/144 lb-ft) and a bigger 2.4L four-banger (173-hp/168 lb-ft) in the higher SX model. Both receive two gearbox choices, with the entry level getting either a five-speed manual or four-speed auto. Transmissions in the SX get one more gear each.
    Both trims receive the same sleek styling highlighted by the automaker's attractive new front-end. The nose is accented by wraparound headlights and muscular wheel surrounds, while at the back, a dual exhaust set on either side of the rear diffuser further indicates the two-door's athletic character. Sixteen-in. rolling stock come standard on the EX, but 17-inchers can be had when customer moves up to the SX. Engineers claim the suspensions of both trim levels were tuned to be highly responsive when pushing through the twisties -- a claim we will be sure to put to the test. At the same time, Kia says much care was taken in reducing overall noise, vibration and harshness (NVH).
    Despite its size, the 2010 Koupe sports a generous 90.7 cu ft of interior volume -- 12.6 cu ft of which is dedicated to cargo. Standard bolstered sport seats, air conditioning, power widows and door locks keep passengers as comfortable as possible. SX owners see red stitching, tilt and telescoping leather wrapped steering wheels and metal trimmings added to the amenities list. 2010 Kia Forte Koup pricing and availability has yet to be announced.
