The specs are quite true, but as for the price it's tentatively, thought the actual launch price is more or less quite close..
There'll be 3 specs, the EX, SX and 2.0L SX.. 4K addtional for SX and 11K for 2.0L (from base price), A/T is 3K addtional for all the versions.. Actually the Cerato Forte is open for 'early birds' booking now and the sweetener is $2K off the launch price..

Is the Backside wider than current Cerato? Dimenson wise? If yes, how much wider? Please share the interior dimension Cerato Forte Overall Length = 4530 Overall Width = 1775 Overall Height = 1460 Wheel Base = 2650 Tread = 1557/1564 Overhang = 895/985 Leg Room Total = 1990 Head Room Front = 1015 Head Room Rear = 955 Shoulder Front = 1390 Shoulder Rear = 955 Cargo Capacity = 415 (61 litres increase if you think our current boot is big enough.. I look at Toyota Camry with 14.5 cubic feet, did a conversion to litre and it’s around 411, I’m kinda astonish..) Cerato V2 Overall Length = 4500 Overall Width = 1735 Overall Height = 1470 Wheel Base = 2610 Tread = 1495/1485 Overhang = 915/975 Leg Room Total = 1985 Head Room Front = 1017 Head Room Rear = 970 Shoulder Front = 1440 Shoulder Rear = 1370 Cargo Capacity = 354 Hope it helps..

It's actually heavier than V2, so tat extra 5hp is a compansation to it. piaseh not bombardment, but the V2 is 1285kg, as for the Forte, i didnt actually notice the weight being mentioned in the official product guide but when i source around, some korean websites tells me it's 1185kg & 1187kg, another website indicates both 1185kg and 1265kg which i think could be for 2.0L, dont think can rely on these figures cause local version can be different, but in anyway looks like it'll be lighter then V2 nice! samsungfire.simonsearch.co.kr/rainboard/view.html?board_id=SAMPLE&uid=2602DIMENSION & WEIGHT ±æÀÌ¡¿³Êºñ¡¿³ôÀÌ(mm) : 4,530 x 1,775 x 1,460 ÈÙº£À̽º(mm) : 2,650 Æ®·¹µå ¾Õ/µÚ(mm) : - °øÂ÷Áß·®(kg) : 1,185 ¿¬·áÅÊÅ© ¿ë·®(§¤) : - ½ÂÂ÷Á¤¿ø(¸í) : 5 leedh.net/category/%EC%9E%90%EB%8F%99%EC%B0%A8/New%20Carwww.kmcir.com/uploads/2008269171618390.pdf
