2018 Kia Stinger

From concept to concrete.

To bring the 2018 Kia Stinger to life, Kia Motors' chief design officer Peter Schreyer turned to his design team in Frankfurt. But what makes it authentically gran turismo, a car for a spirited long-distance drive? Years of commitment and passion resulting in bold style, nimble performance, and undeniable comfort.

Stunning outside.

The exterior, with its fastback silhouette and sleek rear-wheel-drive proportions, exudes disarming confidence. Longer and wider than a BMW 4 Gran Coupe, with a longer wheelbase than the Lexus GS, it delivers elegance and athleticism. From the back, four oval exhaust pipes show and tell a commanding presence even during departure. Comparisons based on current model year vehicles.

Sleek, sophisticated inside.

Intimate yet expansive. Minimal yet striking. The cocoon-like interior features aircraft-style spoked vents, metal-ringed gauges, and satin chrome trim. Available ultra-soft Nappa leather covers the deeply contoured seats, and the driver's seat has available adjustable bolsters for outstanding comfort.

Exceptional handling.

Albert Biermann, former BMW M Division VP and now head of Kia's Vehicle Test & High Performance Development, and his team developed the superior ride and handling of the 2018 Kia Stinger. Kia's first sedan with available AWD, it has a new Dynamic Stability Damping Control suspension that adapts to your driving.

Heart-pounding performance.

Take your pick of two turbocharged engines, both matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The available twin-turbo V6 engine offers over 360 horsepower for a powerful drivetrain that delivers exhilarating performance, optimized fuel efficiency, and a premium sports car feel.
