Both available Forte Koup engines feature Kia's performance-enhancing, Continuously Variable Valve Timing (CVVT) technology.

Move the shifter into the right-hand +/- gate and tap into the
performance and control of manual upshifts and downshifts with the Forte
Koup's available 6-speed Steptronic automatic transmission.

Dynamic handling makes Forte a joy to drive. Forte Koup SX models add to
the fun with standard sport-tuned suspension to keep their
road-gripping 17" tires firmly planted.

Safety
Safety
comes naturally to the Forte Koup. It's equipped with the standard
protection of six airbags, complemented by the sure-footed stopping
power of four-wheel-disc anti-lock brakes and a rigid body structure
that helps channel crash energy away from you and your passengers.

Standard safety protection on Forte Koup includes dual front and side
airbags, plus full-length side curtain airbags to enhance the safety of
driver- and passenger-side occupants in the event of a side impact or
rollover.

The driver and front-passenger seats on all Forte Koup models feature
anti-whiplash active headrests that move forward and upward in the first
milliseconds of a crash to help reduce neck injuries.

Electronic stability control automatically adjusts brake pressure at the
appropriate wheel or wheels and regulates engine torque to help you
stay on your path. It's standard on all Forte Koup models.

Forte Koup is equipped with powerful four-wheel-disc brakes and a
standard anti-locking braking system to help you maintain control in
hard-braking situations and on slippery pavement.
