Kia Stinger
Model Overview
If there was any doubt about Kia's desire to project a more upscale image, the Stinger sport sedan should quell it. This mid-size car banks on the luxury segment's love of spacious, good-looking hatchbacks. And then there's the Stinger's impressive drive, especially with the GT's speed and high-tech suspension. The Stinger is an exercise in juxtaposition, pairing expensive looks with the brand's high-value packaging.
