Kia Stinger 3.3L V6

Kia already shocked the automotive industry a few years ago with the unveiling of the Stinger model. The brand was associated with cars characterized by practicality and economy. Buying a Kia was mostly guided by common sense and cool calculation. However, the Korean manufacturer has been successfully changing the perception of its brand for some time, and the Stinger has become the best proof of this.

Of the three available engines in the range, our copy has the most powerful variant, the 3.3-liter twin-turbo V6 with 366 hp and 510 Nm with four-wheel drive. The Kia Stinger with its parameters and rich equipment (most of which is already available as standard) can compete worthily with such models as the Audi A7, BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe or Volkswagen Arteon. On board the flagship car of the Korean brand we will find , among other things: fully electric, heated and ventilated seats with memory settings, heated seat in the rear, head-up display, panoramic roof or Harman Kardon sound system.

It’s also worth mentioning the performance of the vehicle’s interior, which doesn’t stand apart from the European competition. The combination of a powerful engine with an efficient 8-speed transmission, all-wheel drive and extensive equipment makes the Stinger the perfect gran turismo. Considering that the Stinger weighs almost 1.8 tons and accelerates to 270km/h, Kia also didn ‘t forget to equip the car with a proper Brembo braking system. Importantly, Albert Biermann, who was in charge of the “M” sports car division for more than 30 years, was responsible for the car’s design. Biermann’s experience has paid off and the Kia drives great for a sizable four-door GT. In addition, thanks to the adaptive suspension, the Stinger can become truly comfortable in line with the gran turismo class.

The Kia Stinger is certainly a car towards which it is hard to remain neutral. Some praise the Stinger for offering excellent value for money and interesting design, while others still prefer German brands and have no dilemma when choosing a car. Whatever your preference, Kia has created a very interesting and, above all, competitive car in this segment, especially for German designs. The Kia Stinger is a great option for all of your longer trips, and will also provide plenty of fun for faster driving!
