Over the last few years, Kia has continued to surprise the press and auto enthusiasts with forward-thinking designs and technology. The recent redesign of the Kia Optima, for example, has won numerous awards for its style, value, performance and customer satisfaction. The eye-catching Kia Soul has impressed buyers and critics with its easy-on-the-wallet entry price, roomy interior, and family friendly style. The list goes on, but what Palm Kia is really trying to say is, when there are rumors about a new Kia model or design, we get really excited. But, can you blame us?

No, we didn't think so. And, this is why we're also happy to share some details about the upcoming 2013 Kia Forte with our loyal Ocala area customers. Official word about the new Forte is set to be released later this year, but certain sketches have been released to some major automotive news sources that report that the styling hints at what we can expect from the 2012 Kia Forte sedan. The more rounded roofline, combined with the Optima-style grille, headlights and taillights are more in tune with Kia's latest design language. So, it certainly wouldn't surprise us if this is the model that rolls into dealerships later this year.

Keep in mind though, that these are merely rumors. Kia is keeping their lips tightly sealed about the all-new Kia Forte Sedan, and we suspect that's because they have plans for a big reveal at a major auto show in the next six months or so.
