Why Should You Buy a New Kia Forte this Winter?

If you are looking for a new car this winter, the Kia Forte should be on your list due to its numerous comfort features, its App-based remote start and its advanced technologies that keep you safe out on slippery roads.

Many heated features

The new Kia Forte is available with many heated features that keep you and your passengers warm all winter long. Standard even on the entry-level LX, the heated front seats make sure you can get comfortable as quickly as possible when getting behind the wheel of your Forte in cold weather. Stepping up to the EX model adds the heated steering wheel that allows you to drive comfortably without wearing gloves and the EX Premium makes it possible for you and your passenger to choose the temperature you prefer due to its dual-zone automatic climate control. In order to offer the same level of comfort to rear-seat passengers, the GT-Line also comes standard with rear heated seats.

The Kia Connect App

The new Kia Forte is available with the Kia Connect App which includes the remote start feature. This allows you to start the engine from a distance in order to let it warm up before you need to step outside your house or your workplace. This app-based technology has a number of advantages over a traditional remote start feature since it allows you to start the vehicle from anywhere, at any time and you can control some features of the climate control system in order to have the windows defrosted and the cabin warmed when you step inside.

The safety features

The new Kia Forte is also a good choice for a new car this winter due to its high level of active and passive safety. In order to help you prevent accidents when the roads become slippery, every new Forte comes standard with technologies such as traction control and electronic stability control which constantly monitor the speed of each wheel in order to detect any trace of slippage. If the Forte begins to slide on ice or snow, this system will automatically apply the brakes on one or more wheels in order to correct the vehicle’s trajectory.
