The Kia Forte, conjointly referred to as the
Cerato in some countries together with Australia and Brazil, has solely been within the market in sedan kind since 2008, with the
Coupe variant following in 2009 and therefore the five-door hatchback in 2010, however the Korean automaker is prepared to maneuver forward and gift its successor.
The new generation of the
Forte sedan is teased in these official renderings prior to a launch in its home market of Korea below the new name 'K3'(domestic market only) and presumably a U.S. debut either at the la Auto Show in November or the Detroit Motor Show in January of 2013.
Kia said that once
the Forte sedan goes on sale in Korea, it'll seem in several overseas markets throughout the primary quarter of 2013, and can be followed by the five-door hatchback and two-door coupe variants.

The company says its designers and engineers centered on giving the
all-new Forte/Cerato/K3 a
"futuristic and
dynamic styling, with a a lot of spacious cabin".
The teaser pictures counsel that the new compact model is either primarily based on, or heavily impressed, by the second generation of the
Kia's European market Cee'd that was revealed in five-door hatchback and station wagon trims at this year's Geneva Motor Show in March.
