The spacious design accommodates up to five passengers with generous legroom and headroom, while the 60/40 split-folding rear seats expand trunk space for larger cargo. The LXS trim also includes premium touches such as a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, power windows with driver's one-touch auto-down, and dual-zone automatic climate control for personalized comfort. Technology is a highlight of the 2023 Forte LXS.
