2021 Kia Forte Lease near Toledo, OH

2021 Kia Forte shown above with optional features.
Is it time to let your current vehicle retire? Halleen Kia Sandusky has the ideal option for compact sedan drivers who want an upgrade that doesn’t drain their budget. Learn more about the benefits to leasing the 2021 Forte from us!
Leasing the Forte
Leasing lets you enjoy the powerful performance and exciting technology features of a new vehicle without the long term commitment that often comes with financing a purchase. If you don’t have a large savings amount to provide as a down payment, you may find that purchasing the Forte brand new either has higher monthly payments or a longer term length than you may want. Leasing changes that by letting you customize a term length with monthly cost breakdowns that are determined by the depreciation value of the vehicle at the end of the term. We often see customers sign a lease for just two or three years and still follow their budget. Get started today with our online tools.
Technology
Open the doors of the 2021 Forte to reveal a cabin that gives you connectivity for both entertainment and safety. An 8-inch touchscreen comes standard, complete with smartphone interface compatibility for iPhone and Android users along with a rearview camera. Build on these features with available Voice Command Naviation1, a wireless charging pad2, and the Harman Kardon® premium speaker system with Clari-Fi ™. Whether you are navigating to a new destination or simply want the ideal playlist as you travel along I-75, there’s an app ready to assist. Another handy technology feature is technology outside of the cabin, but when your hands are full you’ll certainly appreciate the ease of the available Smart Trunk™ that opens when it senses your approach with key fob in hand.
Performance
Everyone will want to come along for the ride to the Toledo Botanical Gardens or just out to pick up lunch once they experience the performance of the Forte. The available 1.6L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine packs a serious punch with 201-hp and 195 lb.-ft. of torque. You get to decide your level of control with either the 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission or the 6-speed manual version. Complementing the track-inspired performance are large front brakes and high-flow active exhaust. Base trims still have plenty to offer with the standard 2.0L 4-cylinder engine that provides 147-hp and 132 lb.-ft. of torque. Come test drive both and see which powertrain matches your performance goals.
If a 2021 Kia Forte lease near Toledo, OH, sounds like the opportunity you’ve been waiting for, come to Halleen Kia of Sandusky!

Testimonials
I highly recommend the VIP program!
Really recommend to stop in there!
“ Salesman Travis was excellent & business manager Richard very knowledgeable. Great service. David and Patrick Halleen are class acts. Really recommend to stop in there and just see what I mean. Thanks everyone who helped me and my family. ”
Marla was exceptional!!
“ Marla was exceptional!! She was patient, understanding and worked diligently in the best interest of my mother. It was a pleasure working with her and I would recommend anyone that wants to purchase a Kia to go see Marla. We couldn't have asked for better customer service, genuine interest in our needs, and a more friendly person. Great work, Marla!! You are very much appreciated. ”
This place is awesome.
“ This place is awesome. Salesman are kind , finance guy is really cool. Best experience I've ever had at a car dealership ”
TOP TIER TEAM = This is the place for you
“ TOP TIER TEAM = This is the place for you. Exceptional product, value and service. My family and I drove 400 miles round trip to Sandusky - would do it again. Ownership was outside, under my hood, explaining a question I had about my engine. Very friendly and interested in getting things correct. Sales and finance spent the extra time and energy to make sure my whole family had a great experience; one that was as efficient as possible due to our long trip back home! Answered all our many questions with honesty and good cheer. We left satisfied and very glad we made the long trip to Halleen Kia of Sandusky. ”
A great experience
“ I met with Matthew Wilhelm when I arrived at the dealership. I didn't have an idea in mind of what type of vehicle I wanted, but I did know how much I wanted to spend. Within minutes, he had picked out a car that fit in my budget and I love it. My family has purchased 2 vehicles from Halleen and both times it's been a great experience. ”
Thanks for your great customer servic
“ Justin greeted me at the door and was very helpful and polite .Justin i must say is one of the nicest most honest salesperson i have ever dealt with. I came home with my 2017 Soul within a few hrs , Im very pleased with how Justin and Aaron took care of me while purchasing my Kia Sou,. and i will be sure to recommend Halleen Kia and Justin Xavier. Thanks for your great customer service ”
I have bought cars many times
“ I have bought cars many times and I have never been treated better anywhere. This is one of the best dealerships I have ever been to or bought cars from. ”
Very friendly
“ Very friendly, service department is great. ”
Car shopping can be challenging
“ With a wife, 10 year old & 2 year old (and trading in our only car), car shopping can be challenging to actually test drive enough cars to find the one for you. Paul was patient & willing to help with getting everyone in & out of vehicles, toddler car seats & all, in order to help us decide on the '15 Kia Optima that we purchased. Richard was also very helpful in financing & also super friendly. When it's time to either add another car to our family, or trade in this one, I know where I'll be shopping. ”
Great service and staff was very informative
“ Great service and staff was very informative ”
Service people are wonderful and take care of you vary well
“ Service people are wonderful and take care of you vary well ”
The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable.
“ The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. They all followed up with us after we left to see if we needed anything, they didn't just make a sale and forget about us. ”
Wonderful service!
“ Wonderful service! Love them! ”
We shopped most all of the local dealerships in the area
“ We shopped most all of the local dealerships in the area and the sales people were agressive with sales and were angered and offended when you asked them to calm down and some were simply irate when you you told them you were going elsewhere. We stumbled on the Halleen Kia in Sandusky Ohio and the salesman, Mathew Wilhelm, approached us with a calm demeanor gave us some quick info and left us to browse. Once we found a few new vehicles we were interested in, we approached Matt with a few questions and concerns which he answered promptly without hesitation or having to "ask his manager" like at other dealerships. We test drove the vehicles we were interested in and had a very enjoyable experience speaking with Matt. We shared stories and laughs as if we had been friends for years. His kindness was truly refreshing. He made our car buying experience a great one wich we will never forget. He represented himself and his buisness well. During the purchase process the owner came out to greet us and inquire about out experience. The owner personally thanked us for the purchase of our 2017 Kia Soul Plu ”
They work with you to get it done
“ They work with you to get it done. Thank you Paul, Patrick and Richard... greatly appreciated, God bless you ”
I bought the car
“ I bought the car, if that tells you anything. ”
I went to them very hesitant.
“ I went to them very hesitant. Paul the salesman that helped me was so kind and explained things to me. Even though I had some issues for him to work around he found a way to make the deal work for both of us. He was friendly and made me feel like I could ask questions and gave me great customer service. Anyone wanting to get a car should go in and ask for Paul. Great guy! ”
I was in to have 2 recalls looked into on my 2012 KIA Optima EX.
“ I was in to have 2 recalls looked into on my 2012 KIA Optima EX. The associate took the time to explain what they were doing and why. The overall environment was comfortable. No one was a stranger, I felt I'd known everyone I came in contact with for at least 10+years!! (Besides the owner saying "Hi" & scaring the living daylights out of me---that moment you're consumed by whatever you brought to pass the time & aren't expecting anyone to speak to you! Definitely a hilarious moment!) It was VERY apparent that they were there to help someone make ONE of the biggest decisions of their lives; that's best for YOU, the customer and not THEIR pocket! ”
Excellent, no worries.
“ Excellent, no worries. Paul P. and Aaron H. were accommodating and patient while I had the car checked out by a Honda certified collision/mechanical outfit. Ended up with a reliable car... ”
