If you’re looking for the most affordable, but still powerful and exciting, Stinger, this is your best option.

The standard engine on the 2022 Stinger is a turbo 2.5-liter that generates 300 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque. But when you choose the Stinger GT1 or Stinger GT2, you’ll experience the thrill of a twin-turbocharged 3.3-liter V6 under the hood. This engine is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters and delivers an impressive 368 horsepower and 376 lb-ft of torque. The GT1 and GT2 models also have a valved exhaust system that lets everyone know when you’re approaching. For a quick punch of adrenaline, the Launch Control feature on the GT1 and GT2 models ought to do the trick. Even for as powerful as this sedan is, it’s still quite efficient. The base GT-Line offers up to 32 mpg on the highway with standard RWD while the GT1 and GT2 models deliver up to 25 mpg on the highway.[1]
Exterior Design
With its sportback design, the Kia Stinger is no ordinary sedan. You’ll turn heads at every corner thanks to the Stinger’s athletic shape and low, wide stance. You can choose to paint your Stinger in one of seven appealing colors, like HiChroma Red, Micro Blue Pearl, Aurora Black Pearl, or the unique Ascot Green. The standard 18-inch Vertex alloy wheels already stand out, but you can go even bigger with 19-inch spire alloy wheels. With GT styling from front to back, you’ll notice that every detail and feature has a purpose. For example, the black chrome side vents allow airflow to exit the wheel wells to reduce drag and improve aerodynamics. Meanwhile, the standard Smart Welcome system will detect your Smart Key and illuminate the door pocket light for added convenience when it’s dark outside.
Interior
The interior of the new Kia Stinger is just as appealing as its exterior. The sportiness continues with standard leather seat trim available in black, beige, or red. This trimming can also be found on the door panels for added athleticism and luxury. You’ll also be incredibly comfortable inside the Stinger thanks to the standard 12-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with four-way power lumbar support. The front seats are also heated and can be ventilated on the GT2 model. Additional standard amenities include a leather-wrapped steering wheel and gear shift handle, gloss black accent trim, aluminum appearance pedals, dual-zone climate control, and under-floor storage. Consider upgrading to higher trim levels for amenities like multi-color LED accent lighting, heated rear seats, and sport gauges.
Technology
As stylish as the 2022 Kia Stinger is, it’s also just as smart. Inside is a standard 10.25-inch touch-screen display with Kia Connect and a navigation system. You’ll also have the convenience of Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ so you can use your favorite compatible apps directly on the touch screen. The Stinger comes with multiple USB charging ports and 12-volt power outlets, but you can cut the cord if you like, thanks to the standard wireless phone charger. The GT-Line and GT1 models come with a nine-speaker sound system, but the GT2 is where you’ll find the pinnacle of audio. This model is equipped with a 15-speaker Harman Kardon® QuantumLogic™ premium system with Clari-Fi™ music restoration technology.
