Kia Stinger sport sedan

**Egan101** · January 14th, 2017 05:48 PM

Will the Kia Stinger be released locally? RWD with a limited slip differential powered by a turbo-4/turbo-6 is one good proposition. An AWD model with torque vectoring will also be offered in the global market. Maybe the turbo-4 (255hp) RWD model at around 1.7M-1.8M will be a sporty option (more fun) compared to the lot of FWD midsizers sold locally.

Kia seems to have a winner here. I wonder if Kia ever plans to sell a few here.

Will arrive here DOA. Overpriced, underspecced, burdened with the bad brand equity of Kia. Unless bilhin na ni Ayala si Kia PH? hehe

The PH market will get the range topping model, the Stinger GT.

According to topgear, it's expected to retail for about 3.3M [emoji857]

Php 3.3 Million for a freaking Kia? Yikes! I'd rather get a 3 series BMW, or maybe a Ford Mustang. Even a top down Mini Cooper would be a better value.

One key feature I noticed with the Stinger is the 2nd row seats. Seems to have a lot of space for a performance car. Definitely a lot more space than the Mustang's 2+2.

Maybe it won't be as quick as the Mustang GT but it will be a lot more practical with the extra interior space. Maybe it won't be as buttoned down as a BMW dynamics-wise but at a similar price point it'll be a lot quicker.

But I do get the difficulty with the pricing. A lot of options near their asking price.

It should be good in the twisties as KIA hired a guy that was previously working with BMW’s M division.

Hahaha yeah I agree, and their after sales service sucks.
