Kia Motors, a South-Korean automobile manufacturer and second-largest as of December 2015. Universally, Kia offers a sum of three motor choices with the Stinger.

The one that will be at the feature of the range – the GT, with a 3.3-liter, twin-turbocharged petrol motor that puts out 365 hp and 510 Nm of torque. Asserted 0-96 kph for the Stinger GT is pegged at 4.7 seconds, and it has the best speed of 270 kph.

     

The Stinger gets an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a 15-speaker Harman Kardon sound system, a 360-degree camera, a head-up showcase, control customizable front seats with ventilation and Nappa cowhide upholstery, dual-zone atmosphere control, a fueled rear end, and a full suite of security systems.

It even gets Brembo brakes, electronically controlled suspension, and a constrained slip differential to run.

Venture inside, and you will be amazed at the structure and the nature of the lodge. It is not making a decent attempt to be lively — no gaudy trims or splendid upholstery in here. The design is basic and keen.

The instrumentation, its format, and the text styles have a solid likeness to the past age of Audi cars. The lodge is open, and you sit somewhat low with the dash folding over you like an ordinary sports car.

     

It even has the numbers to equal this class of vehicles and make you reconsider your image loyalties. The Stinger is accessible with diesel and petrol motor choices and the range-topper oil with a 3.3l turbocharged V6 motor that is obtained from Kia and Hyundai’s kinship.

It produces 356 PS of intensity that enables the 1.9-ton vehicle to break a sub-five second 0-100 kmph run. The power can be put down to the street using a four-wheel-drive system

Kia Stinger is at the value (Ex-Delhi) 35-50 lakh (estimated) with 2199 cc displacement of Automatic transmission on 200 Max power with 440 Nm torque.

The Stinger GT feels deft and snappy. The torque from gearbox on the test vehicle did not feel as brisk as an Audi DSG or as clairvoyant as any new age BMW gearboxes. However, it takes care of business entirely well. Around quicker curves or circuits, it might be not as proficient as wanted and this could be the feeble connection for this vehicle.

     

The directing is shockingly great and feels very exact in its task and supplements the plan of the Stinger pleasantly. The dynamic brakes and the grippy tires contribute further to make it an impressive bundle.

The Stinger plans to pronounce the European sports vehicle like the BMW 3 Series and the Audi A5.

However, its needs in India will be unique. Kia state the Stinger GT’s plan and dynamic abilities will channel down to the vehicles lower in the fragment as well.

     

So, if the Stinger is an indication of things to originate from Kia, it surely looks positive for fans like you and is most likely a much-needed development over what we have encountered with Korean vehicles as of now.
