The Kia Forte Koup 2.0L 2010 is a sporty and stylish coupe that offered a compelling blend of performance, practicality, and affordability. It was the first coupe offering from Kia, built on the same platform as the Forte sedan, but with a more rakish profile and a shorter wheelbase. Under the hood, it was powered by a 2.0L four-cylinder engine, producing 156 horsepower and 144 lb-ft of torque. This engine was mated to a five-speed manual transmission as standard, with a four-speed automatic available as an option. The Forte Koup was praised for its responsive handling, comfortable ride, and generous interior space for a coupe.
The Forte Koup's design was a departure from the more conservative Kia models of the time. It showcased a bold front fascia with a prominent grille, swept-back headlights, and large air intakes. The side profile featured a sloping roofline, sculpted doors, and 17-inch alloy wheels. The rear end was characterized by its distinctive taillights, dual exhaust tips, and a spoiler. Interior features included cloth upholstery, a six-speaker sound system, and a steering wheel with audio controls. The Koup offered a driver-centric layout with ample headroom and legroom for both front and rear passengers, despite its sloping roofline. Although initially a hit with buyers looking for a stylish and affordable coupe, the Forte Koup was discontinued after the 2013 model year, replaced by the second-generation Forte Koup which featured a more refined design and improved powertrain options.
