Stinger 2.0 T Finally on route north !

[Scotty@SherwoodKia]

Just placed an order for a few of the Stinger 2.0T models dubbed as the Stinger GT-Line


It will have the exact same features as the base level Gt currently availible. With Smaller wheels looking to be the only cosmetic difference so far... and only AWD


Looks like pricing will be just below if not 40 grand


Whats everyones thoughts is it worth it or just go to the GT 3.3tt??

Is it on par with the 2.0 Premium from the US? There's a lot more differences than size of wheel on the US 2.0 vs 3.3.

Personally, if it's only $5K less than the base model 3.3, I'd totally favour the 3.3 for the better engine. Here in Canada, I doubt the RWD would be offered.

Nothing wrong with the 2.0T in my opinion BUT if you can find some extra cash the 3.3TT is a BEAST!

it has everything the GT has so It is better than the us spec models . However there could be more trims added in later years depending on sales of course. gotta remember Canada is just a small blip for Kia in terms of market

Prior to getting my Stinger, I had a 2015 Hyundai Sonata 2.0T Ultimate. It produced about 10 HP less than the 2.0T in the Stinger, had a lot of the tech and features available in the Stinger and was generally a really great car. That being said, the difference in performance between that Sonata and my Stinger with the 3.3TT is extraordinary. To me, those 365 HP are just so seductive that it's a no-brainer between the V6 and the 4 cylinder.

Spend the money and get the big motor. Or save money and get a loaded Sonata...

So just smaller wheels and a different engine?

So it even has the GT front bumper and the black chrome vents and mirrors? All 2.0T models I've ever seen didn't have those.

according to the spec sheet no black chrome but no mention of different bumper or vents but guess we will see
