The 2016 Kia Forte requires either sae 5w-20 or sae 5w-30 fully synthetic motor oil for its engine. Depending on the engine size, there are two different oil capacities for this car. The 1.8 liter engine can hold up to 4.8 quarts of oil, while the 2.0 liter engine can handle up to 4.1 quarts, slightly less. These oils can be bought at various automotive retail stores, popular retailers, and reputable online sites. Prices range from $3 to $13 per quart, and you will need approximately 4 bottles for an oil change. Consider purchasing a plastic or metal funnel for convenience, costing between $0.99 and $4, to assist with pouring the oil into the reservoir.

    In 2016, the Kia Forte is best suited for full synthetic oil like SAE 5W-20, but it can also run on SAE 5W-30. The 1.8L engine requires 4.5 quarts of oil, while the 2.0L engine needs 4.1 quarts.
