Different Models?

[ethan7193]

Hey, I own a 2.0l 2019 Premium, and I've noticed from pictures and videos online that there seems to be a another model of stingers with rear vents and a separate OEM steering wheel.

My stinger does not have rear vents and came with a different OEM steering wheel.

Is anyone able to clarify whether there are separate models or revisions to these models that I am not aware about? I've taken a look at the base models as well and they seem to also contain rear vents that my car is missing.

Sorry if this is a stupid question lol, just started getting around to modding mine and noticed this

'rear vents' don't exist on any stinger. the my18 and my19 2.0l had no 'moon' shaped accent behind the rear wheel well, whereas the 3.3l trims did. in 2020 the 'base' and premium' were replaced by 'gt line' and outwardly look identical to the 3.3l trims, except for the headlights, including the rear faux 'vent' accents. the 'gt line' and 'gt' flat bottomed steering wheel are the same starting with the my20 'gt line'.

So what about the 'd' shaped wheel? Is that exclusive to gt models?

it is universal since 2020, all trims have the flat bottomed 'D' shaped wheel.

This I presume is your Stinger.

No rear "fake" vents and a Round steering wheel

That's what came up when I googled your model.

GOOGLE "Kia Stinger 2.0l 2019 Premium"

Yeah I just got confused because I found images online of the 'd' shaped wheel, while claiming to be a 2.0l 2019 premium. Thanks

So this your model Stinger
No "fake" vent on the rear quarter panel.
