2024 Kia Forte for Sale near Skokie, IL
2024 Kia Forte shown above (left) with available features.
Steadfast in design and boasting confident capabilities, the 2024 Kia Forte won’t flinch in the face of adversity. This compact car is more than eager to weave throughout the streets of Skokie to get you where you need to be. Give it a test drive here at McGrath Kia of Highland Park!
Technology
Stepping into the Forte will reveal a world of possibilities to you, and it all begins with the standard 8-inch touchscreen display1 found on the dashboard. With just the swipe of a finger, you can obtain directions to Lovelace Park, or play your favorite song or podcast on the standard 4-speaker audio system. However, if you’d rather make use of your mobile device to manipulate these systems, then perhaps you’d lean more toward the usage of the standard Apple CarPlay®2 and Android Auto™3 integration. This will likely present a drain on your phone’s battery, which is why a standard USB charging port is present in the front and rear seats. But if you don’t like the hassle that often accompanies cables, then you should know that a wireless charging pad4 is an available option for this model.
Exterior
A sleek and stylish outer shell design is what you’ll receive when you select the 2024 Kia Forte as your vehicle of choice for driving along I-94. Color choices such as Fire Orange, Currant Red, and Deep Sea Blue are sure to enhance this to a great degree. You can also find standard 15-inch steel alloy wheels attached to this vehicle, although 18-inch variants are available if you want an extra level of altitude. LED headlights and daytime running lamps are also optional if you’d like further assistance in piercing through veils of darkness and thick hazes. This model also boasts standard solar control glass, meaning that the interior will accrue less heat when you leave it out in the sun for an extended period of time.
Capabilities
When you take charge of the Kia Forte, you’ll be in command of a standard standard 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, capable of releasing 147 horsepower and 132 lb.-ft. of torque. But if you’d like to increase your output, then consider opting for the available 1.6L turbocharged 4-cylinder powertrain to unleash 201 horsepower and 195 lb.-ft. of torque. If you choose to stick with the standard motor, then you’ll also be accompanied by a standard Intelligent Variable Transmission to help keep your sense of velocity smooth. To help you further tailor your piloting experiences to your preference, Normal, Sport and Smart drive modes also come standard. With all of these systems taken into consideration, a 30/41/34 MPG city/hwy/combined5 fuel economy rating will be at your disposal. Visit our location today to see the 2024 Kia Forte in person!
2024 Kia Forte Engine Options:

Testimonials
“ I already left a five star review from another account, but I wanted to come back and say this just for JACKIE PIERCE. She is just amazing! From my first call she handled everything with such calm and care. Nothing felt stressful. What others couldn’t get done, she took care of right away. She’s an expert and knows her way around the dealership. I left feeling relieved and very grateful. KIA is lucky to have her. If you get the chance to work with Jackie, you’ll be glad you did. ”
“ Absolutely everyone I encountered there was so kind and attentive. They made it so easy to drop off my car, get a great loaner and keep in touch. I’m truly not going anywhere else from here on out! Thanks Jackie and Scott!! ”
“ We had an outstanding experience at McGrath Kia of Highland Park, and I can’t say enough good things about Greg and Jarek. From the moment we walked in, they treated us with genuine respect, kindness, and professionalism. There was absolutely no pressure—just honest communication. Greg and Jarek (Jerry) had a truly top-notch demeanor. We were treated extremely well and felt confident in our decision. I would absolutely recommend anyone looking for a car to work with them—you won’t be disappointed! Thank you both—I’m going to greatly enjoy my new car! 🚗✨ ”
Wayne is the guy!
“ Wayne is the guy! Super laid back and on top of his game. No games, no garbage, just a straight shooter who will tell you how he sees it. ”
“ Nicholas was an excellent salesperson at Kia—friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful throughout the entire process. He took the time to answer all my questions, made everything easy and stress-free, Highly recommend working with Nicholas if you’re looking for a great car-buying experience! ”
“ I took my car in for some recalls and they took care of everything in just a few hours. I was dropped back home instead of waiting on site and when the car was ready they offered to pick me up. Great service all around. ”
“ Highly recommend Kia McGrath in highland park. Great service. Great staff. Go get your car serviced with them. And if you don’t have a car, go buy one from them! I’m Always in and out when I need an oil change! Thank you Jackie at service!! ”
“ Nicholas at McGrath Kia of Highland Park was extremely helpful throughout our process. He was responsive, patient, and answered every question we had. I'd definitely recommend working with him! ”
“ My car was transferred to this dealership from another Mcgrath location. The customer service and follow up from the service team at this dealership has been amazing to say the least. Breana, Joe, Tristan, And Jackie have kept me in the loop every step of the way and return my calls the same day or at least within 24 hours. They are honest and transparent it's refreshing to have this type of quality service. Thank you. ”
“ Mike Delaney was awesome!!! After owning a telluride for 6 years, he taught me 100 new things about my car that I never knew. Patients, friendly and knowledgeable. Thank you so much Mike. ”
“ Thanks Mike Delaney for my new Sorento. ”
“ Jackie Piece is the best...she was very knowledgeable and prompt at solving my issues and concerns. I recommend her great customer service and recommend the Highland Park dealership to anyone who wants the best customer experience. All employees at this dealership are fantastic hard workers. Under new dealership this Highland Park Kia tops any other dealership I've experienced. They are kind and considerate. I've read previous reviews from retrospective reviews about racism and I rebut those comments because I am an African American man and my experience with this dealership was exceptional well and fairly treated. This is the dealership that works with you and guaranteed satisfaction is the end result. ”
Jackie Pierce and Jose are the best and were very
“ Jackie Pierce and Jose are the best and were very knowledgeable and helpful about my concerns. I highly recommend their customer service and I give them a million star rating because of their prompt service and how quickly they were both able to solve my issues and concerns. ”
“ My car needed to be towed in for electrical issues - no car available. I spoke to Jackie, she got me a car within 30 minutes and has gone way out of her way to help me. I have been working with Orest Sosnivka in sales. He too has been extremely helpful, respectful and knowledgeable. ”
“ Pejman was a very kind and helpful salesman! He broke down all the pricing and options for us so that we could get a reliable family vehicle. I really appreciate him making the process seamless and efficient. He even reached out the morning after our purchase, congratulating us offering to go over any features in the vehicle if we needed assistance. Wonderful customer service! Also, I had also called multiple Kia dealerships and no one was real knowledgeable on working with military members who are trying to register their vehicle in their home state. I spoke with Jackie at McGrath who is a former marine and was able to get the process started before we even got to the dealership. These guys got it done and helped us through the process, so would definitely recommend them over us Kia dealerships for military members. Lastly, I did not catch his name, but another salesman took some time to play with and color with my 3 year old. Going above and out of the way to make us feel comfortable. I can't express how much I appreciate that as a mom and it was the extra step that made us want to buy the vehicle from this dealership. Thank you to everyone at McGrath Kia for the wonderful purchasing experience! We love our new Telluride! ”
