The 2019 Kia Forte recently celebrated its premiere at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit recently, and there are big ambitions associated with the all-new sedan.

How big? Well, Kia Motors America decided to do a head-to-head comparison test, pitting its new Forte against, a Lamborghini Aventador? This should be interesting.

The latest Forte features a significantly new design inside and out, incorporating styling cues from the Stinger. Revised dimensions help promote more interior space, and there’s 428 litres of boot space available.

It also benefits from a second-generation 2.0 litre Nu engine with Atkinson-cycle technology and a cooled EGR system, mated to either a six-speed manual or Kia’s new Intelligent Variable Transmission (IVT).

Obviously, the Forte wins in many aspects as demonstrated in this cheeky YouTube video, although the V12-powered Lambo does have some strong points to claw its way back. After witnessing the USPs of both cars, which one would you prefer?
