The Kia Forte first entered production in 2009 as a replacement for the Spectra and Cerato models.

It goes by several other names in different territories around the world including the K3, Shuma or the new Cerato.

You can purchase the Forte as a hatchback, sedan or even as a 2-door coupe with all examples of the car being front-wheel-drive.

It has always been built on the same platform as the Hyundai Elantra and is classed as a compact car like the Elantra.

This 2017 model of the car is a late example of the second-generation with the third-generation Forte being delivered to customers in the next year.

2017 models benefited from a facelift that saw the headlights, grille and bumper all refreshed to match the rest of the Kia range.

Inside of the car is a surprising level of features and technology for the price and all of them can be found in the owner's manual.

A copy of the official 2017 Kia Forte owner's manual can be found on this page as a PDF that can be easily downloaded or viewed online.

If you would like to print the 2017 Forte manual out and keep a physical copy in the car then that is possible too.
