Kia Stinger

Scheduled to be displayed at the 2019 Manila International Auto Show is Kia’s latest gift to the automotive world, the Stinger. The sedan strikes a perfect balance between style and power and is expected to feature a powerful mill paired with an automatic transmission. Though the brand has not revealed much, however, taking clues from the countries the Stinger has been launched, it seems to be a pretty expensive car. It’s GT variant showcases a 0 to 97 kmph run time of 4.7 seconds, thus leaving behind the like of BMW 440i Gran Coupe, Porsche Panamera, BMW 640i Gran Coupe, and Audi A5 Sportback. The Stinger is a true work of art with sculpted surfaces and fastback proportions. On the exterior, the car is expected to get high-glow LED headlamps, jewel-like LED turn signals, LED daytime running lights, aerodynamically engineered outer rearview mirrors, LED tail lights, aggressive rear fender, and dual twin exhaust pipes creating a sense of stability and sportiness.

On the inside, the car is expected to be all plush and premium with every minute detail exquisitely engineered. Also, we are hoping to get a 7-inch touchscreen, 15-speaker sound system, wireless phone charger,  leather upholstery, power, heated and ventilated seat, and much more. The safety kit will most probably get seven airbags, ABS, Electronic Stability Control, Hill Assist Control, Cornering Brake Control. As for Stinger’s engine specs, it is expected to be powered by a V6 mill that churns out a maximum power of 365 hp along with a peak torque of 510 Nm. Also, a 4-cylinder turbo engine is on the card that is paired to an automatic transmission unit and generates 255 hp of maximum power and 352 Nm of torque.
