The Kia Stinger first launched in 2017 with the 2018 model, and it has come a long way since. New engine options, styling updates, and infotainment upgrades make this spacious sedan an attractive option for enthusiasts and first-time buyers alike. The new 2022 Kia Stinger packs a punch, and we’ve put together this guide to give you a closer look at the features, pricing and, performance of this handsome-looking car.

Basics About the 2022 Kia Stinger

This newest model in the Stinger range was launched in spring 2021, and it’s Kia’s largest sport sedan. It is available in three trims; the GT-Line, GT1 and GT2, and it combines comfort and style with the elite look and feel of a premium sedan. All trims come with an upgraded 2.5L Turbocharge 4-cylinder engine, producing 300 horsepower, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission for a smooth driving experience.

Pricing Options

There are several pricing options available for you to choose from depending on your needs, wants, and budget. Prices start at an affordable $36,090 for the GT-Line; this will give you all the essentials including the new engine and exterior design overhaul. Prices for the GT1 start at $43,690. This buys you larger 19” alloy wheels, customizable colored LED accent lighting, and LED reading and room lights as well as other aesthetic premiums, giving this vehicle a modern touch.

On the high end of the scale is the GT2 trim, with prices starting from $51,290. This luxury trim includes features such as auto-dimming outside mirrors that automatically dim the glare of approaching vehicle headlights, a smart power trunk that opens automatically, and state-of-the-art LED headlight technology that improves driving visibility, a real bonus for those long-distance journeys.

New Features

Exterior

The Stinger is available in seven colors, including a brand-new Ascot Green. The rear of the vehicle has had a styling overhaul and now houses larger exhaust tips which give this vehicle a deeper rumble as well as a demanding presence.

LED taillights are now connected with a thin illuminated strip that runs along the width of the tailgate, lighting the back of the car in a unique and striking way.

Interior

The instrument panel has been polished and renewed, with metallic trim pieces, customizable ambient LEDS, and luxury materials throughout the interior. All trims now come with a 10.25” touch-screen display and navigation system, and the GT-Line and GT1 trims carry a 9-speaker sound system, while the GT2 is installed with a 15-speaker Harman Kardon system.

A heads-up display is included in the GT2 trim, as well as sports gauges, including oil temperature, engine torque output, and G-Force meter.

Performance

All trims give the option to swap out the 2.5L Turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that comes as standard with a brand new 3.3L Twin-Turbocharged V6 engine, boosting the horsepower up to 368, and pushing this vehicle from 0-60 mph in just 4.7seconds. Electronically controlled suspension is included in the GT1 and GT2 to constantly adjust suspension in response to the environment for a smooth and comfortable ride.
