Kia Stinger makes Asian debut at Seoul Motor Show
The new Kia Stinger fastback sports sedan made its Asian premiere at the 2017 Seoul Motor Show. Shown in a new colour and specification specially prepared for the show, the car is displayed alongside the 2011 Kia GT Concept, the vehicle which provided a template for the production Stinger's final design.
In addition to the Stinger, Kia's futuristic motor show display showcases the brand's latest in-car technologies, with a Virtual Reality (VR) theatre demonstrating KIA's DRiVE WISE driver assistance systems, alongside a range of fully-interactive exhibits dedicated to the future of car-to-car and car-to-environment connectivity.
Displayed in public for the first time in the brand's domestic market, Kia's powerful new fastback sports sedan channels the spirit of historic grand tourers – powerful, elegant vehicles capable of moving their owners in style and at speed.
The Stinger features a head-turning aesthetic, ample room to accommodate five occupants and their luggage, a stable, unruffled ride, and nimble handling with engaging, rear-biased power delivery.
When the Stinger goes on sale in Korea, it will be available with a choice of three powerful engines. These include a powerful 3.3-litre twin-turbo V6, producing 272 kW with a maximum torque output of 510 Nm, giving the Stinger 0 to 100 km/h acceleration of just 4.9 seconds, and making this the fastest-accelerating and most powerful car KIA has ever produced. Also available is a 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine (190 kW power output, and 353 Nm maximum torque) and - depending on market – a 2.2-litre turbodiesel engine producing 147 kW and 440 Nm torque.
The Stinger will be available with a choice of rear-wheel and all-wheel drive, as well as a range of DRiVE WISE active safety systems and an electronically-adjustable Dynamic Stability Damping Control suspension system. A five-mode Drive Mode Select system will give drivers the ability to customise the driving experience, altering suspension, throttle and steering characteristics to offer drivers sportier ride and handling, a more relaxed gran turismo-inspired ride for taking on long-distance drives, and everything in between.
