It will go on sale in the first quarter of 2013 offering buyers a choice of two four-cylinder powerplants and will be followed up by a five-door hatchback and a coupe model. Kia's new compact-sized sedan, which our international readers <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/09/new-2014-kia-forte-k3-cerato-detailed.html">may also know as the K3</a> (Korea) and Cerato (Australia, Brazil etc), slots between the Rio sub-compact and the Optima mid-size sedans. The Korean carmaker highlights the new Forte's more modern design which it says is "inspired by European sport sedans" but born in California at Kia’s American Design Center in Irvine. <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-j2eBWj1GTKA/ULbJHE50POI/AAAAAAAKWXU/8Q8r-zH5wwA/s1600/2014-Kia-Forte-Sedan-22.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:right; float:right; margin-left:10px; margin-bottom:10px"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-j2eBWj1GTKA/ULbJHE50POI/AAAAAAAKWXU/8Q8r-zH5wwA/s200/2014-Kia-Forte-Sedan-22.jpg" width="110"></a> Under the new bodywork, you will find a chassis that is longer (by 1.2 inches), lower (0.6 inches) and wider (0.2 inches) than the previous <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/search/label/Kia%20Forte">Forte sedan</a>. Furthermore, at 106.3-inch long, the new Forte's wheelbase is two inches longer than before for improved interior space. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/11/la-auto-show-welcomes-all-new-2014-kia.html#more">Read more »</a>

How else can you explain the fact that its new global compact sedan will have three different names, depending on the region? In its home market of South Korea, where it was officially introduced this week, it <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/07/kia-blows-box-open-on-new-2014-forte-k3.html">will be called K3</a>, while when it arrives in the U.S. and Canada, we will come to know it as the 2014 model year Forte, and in other markets such as Australia and Brazil, as the new Cerato. <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Qusq8v7UJjc/UFz97Pb-FqI/AAAAAAAJLss/lMAHh1qSt-Q/s1600/2013-Kia-K3-Forte-5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear:right; float:right; margin-left:1em; margin-bottom:1em"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Qusq8v7UJjc/UFz97Pb-FqI/AAAAAAAJLss/lMAHh1qSt-Q/s200/2013-Kia-K3-Forte-5.jpg" width="134"></a>Whatever it is called, the new compact model has adopted the brand's latest design DNA both inside and out, while offering a raft of new technologies such as a parking assistance system, LED headlamps and Kia's next generation “telematics” service UVO, which enables drivers to control their cars via a smartphone or other IT devices. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/09/new-2014-kia-forte-k3-cerato-detailed.html#more">Read more »</a>
