The 2009 Kia Forte was released last week with all the details and a bunch of details hots of the upcoming Kia sedan (which will be our next-generation Spectra). More press shots and the official brochure have now popped up online giving us a better look at the 2009 Forte.

Kia will replace the hatchback variant with a coupe next-year. Power for the base 2009 Kia Forte comes from a 1.6 liter 4-cylinder engine that produces 124 horsepower. A 2.0 liter diesel will also be added after launch.
