The upgrade to the Scorpion from the standard Stinger provides blacked-out fender garnishes, side mirror caps, dark-painted exhaust tips, and 19-inch black-painted wheels. The color choices are Snow White Pearl, Aurora Black, or Ceramic Silver, and inside there is unique carbon fiber-patterned trim available in either the red or black Nappa leather. The Stinger is the result of Kia's aim to provide a first-class premium look and feel as well as driving chops, making it a great option for people that love the thrill of driving and are still sticking firmly to a rigid budget.
Available engines are the 300-hp turbocharged 2.5-liter 4-cylinder, and the stronger and souped 368-horsepower twin-turbo V6. The Stinger saw updated exterior lighting elements, new wheel designs, and larger exhaust tips for this year, and also enjoys upgrades in the form of adjustable ambient lighting to make any summer night switch gears rapidly into a reflective and surreal or romantic cruise! When you test drive this sedan you can also check out luxurious extras like ventilated front seats, automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control, and a premium Harman/Kardon audio system.
All of the Stinger GT models feature massive praise-worthy Brembo Brakes, which offer up rapid stops and situate it in a class that celebrates performance and track-inspired chops while still flaunting the ability to settle down just enough for grocery runs. The experienced Car and Driver staff praised the rear seats for having the highest comfort level of ANY contender in its class and loved the benefits of the extra-large center console for accessibility after a quick glance down while driving.
The Stinger also offers nearly every driver assist feature that can be reported on as an option. Some of its key safety features include lane-departure warning and lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection. Our warranty coverage proudly outdoes any other car in this category for overall length of coverage, for which we guarantee that every unexpected turn, impulsive excuse to run just another errand, and eagerness to start off the line quickly after a routine day will be thrilling!
