2020 Subaru WRX vs. 2020 Kia Forte
The 2020 Subaru WRX now hits the high marks for giving its followers the option to use any of its powerful engines. That promise is backed by exceptional handling which makes tougher terrains even smoother than ever before. It has comfortable seats inside, with user-friendly infotainment system to look forward to.
The 2020 Kia Forte, on the other hand, decided to discontinue producing the S trim. This is replaced by the GT and G-line trims. More standard features have been added to the list of offerings for this Kia ride.
Design & Style
A compact car that breathtakingly appears to modern car buyers, the 2020 Subaru WRX knows how to attract more patrons invest in it. This car offers gracious space inside, with the amount of headroom and legroom that are experienced both in the front and rear seats. Taller passengers will find the ride comfortable during long rides too. On top of all these, the cabin uses excellent quality materials for overall solid construction.
The 2020 Kia Forte promises to offer a roomy ride for passengers and drivers alike. It comes standard with cloth upholstery, which is not really that impressive. The tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel is worth noting, and so is the use of attractive interior materials. Vents on the dash have been nicely designed for added attraction in the cabin.
Technology & Safety
The 2020 Subaru WRX uses the StarLink infotainment system, which is paired with its 6.5-inch touchscreen display. This one offers smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It also uses the interface for functions of its two USB ports, Bluetooth interface, satellite radio, and a six-speaker audio system. Driver features that are standard for the ride include a rearview camera, reverse automatic braking, adaptive cruise control, pre-collision braking, forward collision warning, and reverse automatic braking, among others.
The Forte, meanwhile, is equipped with an eight-inch touch screen display for its infotainment system. You will find a four-speaker audio, a Bluetooth Interface, and a USB port in it too. It supports smartphone integration both for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay too. Safety aids include the rearview camera, driver attention and drowsiness monitor, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, and automatic emergency braking.
Performance
The 2020 Subaru WRX carries with it two powerful engine versions. The first version is found in its base trim, one that is capable of hitting up to 268 horsepower. The second type is found in the WRX STI which is capable of handling a score of 310 horsepower. As for the Kia Forte, you will only be able to enjoy up to 147 horsepower in its four-cylinder, 2.0-liter engine.
The Bottom Line
The 2020 Subaru WRX may not carry major changes when compared to its 2019 version, but it dominates this comparison with its outstanding looks, and reliable set of features. On top of these, its engine variations give it the power it needs in order to impress Subaru followers. It is worthy of investment.
