2021 Kia Forte Lease near Bedford, OH
The 2021 Kia Forte with optional features pictured above.
With its commendable safety features and top-notch performance specs, the 2021 Kia Forte is a more than formidable compact sedan. And with our intriguing leasing options available at Halleen Kia, this vehicle can be in your possession a fraction of the sticker price. For more details, read below or get in touch with one of our helpful representatives.
Performance
First, we’ll take a look under the sheet metal and examine the two dynamic powertrains available with the 2021 Kia Forte. This compact sedan comes standard with a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine that unleashes up to 147 horsepower and 132 lb.-ft. of torque. You can bypass the gas pump a few extra with this engine because it achieves a remarkable 29/40/33 MPG city/hwy/combined1 fuel economy rating. For some extra oomph, go with the 1.6L 4-cylinder turbo engine that cranks out up to 201 horsepower and 195 lb.-ft. of torque. This powertrain can be paired with 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, or a 6-speed manual transmission if you’d prefer to put the power in your own hands. No matter which engine you have under the hood, you’ll have the MacPherson strut front suspension to help you hug those corners and deliver you a smooth driving experience.
Safety
Driving the 2021 Kia Forte comes with an added sense of security due to the wealth of safety features actively working to protect you. Constantly monitoring the road of you is the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist2. This standard system will alert you when it detects a possible front-end collision and provide braking support if no action is taken. Similarly, available Blind-Spot Collision Warning3 will send an alert when it detects vehicles in your hard-to-see areas. Additionally, with features like the Traction Control System4 and Electronic Stability Control4, you’ll have increased traction and reduced wheel spin when trying to avoid an accident. If that wasn’t enough, the Kia Forte is built with an advanced high-strength steel body5 that will shield what value most if a collision does occur.
Lease
If you aren’t too familiar with the leasing process, we’ll pause to discuss how you stand to benefit by signing up for one of these contracts. First, you won’t have to worry about making a down payment because lease contracts don’t grant you ownership. Plus, you’ll only be expected to contribute towards your vehicle’s anticipated depreciation value. That will shave a good portion off of your monthly bill. Typically, lease contracts last between two and four years and come with an annual allotment of miles to use. At the end of your lease, you can decide to restructure your deal and make the vehicle your own. You can also browse our selection of new models or decide to explore options elsewhere.

Testimonials
No doubt we will be coming to Halleen again!
Great job guys!
“ Martial Lester was extremely professional & accommodating to work with when we purchased our 2019 Kia Optima. He went out of his way to make sure all our questions were answered and also instruct us on features that were new to us. I would highly recommend him for your vehicle purchase. Our Financing experience was easy as well. Steve Stein made it a breeze. Great job guys! ”
Nice people & friendly professional demeanor.
“ Nice setup with a futuristic/modern feel. All salespeople are easily accessible because they're not sitting in offices but in an open space with enough space between each desk so customers don't feel crowded. Nice people & friendly professional demeanor. ”
Love the perks
“ Arnaldo Rivera spent time with me showing me options, answering my questions, and was not pushy at all. He was very pleasant and funny as was Steve, the finance manager. You can tell these employees are well treated and love their jobs at Kia of North Olmsted. I also love the perks I get like the free car washes. ”
Thank you Halleen Kia and Jim for making my dreams come true!
“ Jim the salesman was awesome!!! Made me feel at home as soon as I walked through the door. He genuinely cares about his customers!!! I walked in with not that good of credit and left there with a 2019 Kia Rio. I was so excited I was able to get my car that I started crying and gave him a hug for helping me and treating me & my mother like family. Great place to purchase a new or used car. If you want excellent service ask for Jim. Thank you Halleen Kia and Jim for making my dreams come true! ”
Best customer service ever!

Five stars, Halleen Kia!!!
“ Five stars, Halleen Kia!!! I brought my vehicle in for servicing this past Saturday in the beautiful weather, just as the dealership was having their lunch delivered. Greg in the service department offered me a piece of pepperoni deep dish pizza while I waited for my car to be done. I was extremely pleased that I was able to stroll through the lot and enjoy the weather and my pizza in peace while waiting for my car to be done; not ONE salesmen hounded me and/or followed me around in the parking lot trying to sell me a car. Five stars and two thumbs up, Halleen Kia! I'll definitely make my appointments with Greg from now on..... At lunch time. Lol ;) Thanks for the great service and yummy pizza!!! ”

Don Bazzo helped us out tremendously
“ Don Bazzo helped us out tremendously, my car broke down out of town and it was a manufacturer error. He was able to speak with the other dealership from out of town and get the car shipped back to his dealership so I can pick it up from their rather than having to drive another 3 hours to go get it. I recommend going to see him, he has always treated us right! Thanks! ”

I'm a customer for life! ”

“ This is the third car we have bought from Halleen Kia. (And we still have the first one which is a 2009 and pushing $150K miles!). We actually come from out of state where we have a Kia dealership five minutes from our house, but we choose to drive nearly four hours to get the excellent service Halleen provides. Our sales consultant, Brandon Bowen, was courteous, knowledgeable and did not put any pressure on us to make a decision. Once we made our decision, the financing and delivery process was quick and smooth. Brandon also insisted on showing us all the cool features of our new vehicle. We will definitely request that Brandon assist us with our next purchase and there is no doubt we will be coming to Halleen again! ”
