The 2013 Kia Forte requires 4.1 quarts of 5W-20 or 5W-30 oil with a filter for its 2.0 L 4Cylinder engine, while the 2.4 L 4Cylinder engine needs 4.5 quarts of the same type of oil. It's important to have the right amount of oil in your car to keep the engine clean and lubricated for smooth operation. The price of oil for the Forte ranges from $5 to $10 per quart, totaling around $20 to $41 for the 2.0 L engine and $22 to $45 for the 2.4 L engine.

    The manual recommends using 10W-30 oil for effective lubrication in hot weather, as 5W-20 can be too light in the summer heat. It's best to go with 10W-30 in places where the daytime temperature frequently exceeds 90°F/32°C. Switching to 5W-20 or 5W-30 can improve fuel efficiency and make cold starts easier during the rest of the year.
