Kia has announced the all-new 2018 Kia Stinger GT will be making its Canadian debut at the 2017 Canadian International Auto Show (CIAS) on February 16th.
The 2018 Kia Stinger GT was recently shown off at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit. The Stinger GT is a five-passenger fastback sports sedan that redefines a segment currently populated by European automakers. The car will be offered with multiple engine and drivetrain configurations and luxurious accommodations and is likely to go on sale in the U.S. later this year. Pricing hasn’t been announced yet, but will be announced closer to the vehicle’s launch date.
Oriented longitudinally and set rearward beneath the long, sculpted hood, a choice of two turbocharged engines are available. While both engines are still under development, the standard 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder Theta II engine produces an estimated 255 horsepower at approximately 6,200 rpm. Max torque of 260 lb.-ft. is available from 1,400 – 4,000 rpm. Performance credentials are further enhanced through the available 3.3-liter twin-turbo V6 Lambda II engine, which is anticipated to produce 365 horsepower at an estimated 6,000 rpm and offer max torque of 376 lb.-ft. from 1,300 – 4,500 rpm. Kia is targeting 5.1 seconds to 62 mph and a top speed of 167 mph with the twin turbocharged V6.
