2021 Kia Forte vs 2021 Subaru Impreza


A blue 2021 Kia Forte compared to a blue 2021 Subaru Impreza.

When it comes to sedans, the Kia model lineup has plenty of options to choose from. Over the past decade, the Kia Forte has placed itself strongly in the market as an effective five-seat sedan. In its latest rendition, the 2021 model has been carried-over once more to offer a comfortable experience with slight improvements.

The 2021 Kia Forte has what many look for in a small sedan: fuel economy, comfort features, and affordability. But when stacked up to the competition, how does it look? At Garden grove Kia, we size-up the model with a similarly-priced model in the 2021 Subaru Impreza.

Looking at the engine specifications above, the 2021 Kia Forte offers a strong skillset for warm climates. While the 2021 Subaru Impreza offers all-wheel drive as standard, it suffers in fuel economy as a result. This aids the 2021 Kia Forte, as its Combined estimated 35 MPG rating is ideal for daily commutes. Plus, those wanting additional power can find it in the Kia Forte. Its 1.6-liter four-cylinder Turbo engine outputs up to 201 horsepower for maximum excitability.
