2022 KIA Stinger

 If you and yours are in the hunt for a great looking sport sedan, then you must put the new Kia Stinger on the top of your list to check out. Yes indeed, Kia has branched out into the sports sedan arena and is turning some heads with concept car looks, liftback practicality, great driving dynamics, lot of standard goodies, and performance at an affordable price. 

It is no wonder that Consumer Reports gave the Stinger one of their cherished “Check Marks” for a Recommended Vehicle and high grades for owner satisfaction.  But really, don’t take anyone’s word for it and just do your own thing and check the new Stinger out with the friendly folks at Van Griffith KIA located at 4301 Hwy 377 E in Granbury, Texas or by calling the dealership at 817.573.0400 and see for yourself if it meets your expectations.  Easy as that. 



You will find out that Kia made it even better for 2022 with the addition of a new feisty engine and even more standard features.  The main event this year is the birth of the standard 2.5-liter turbo-four cylinder that punches out 300 horses and 311 lb-ft of asphalt grabbing torque.  Also available, is Stinger GT’s twin-turbo 3.3-liter V6.  Both powerplants are paired with a smooth shifting 8-speed automatic that finds the right gear at the right time sending that energy to the rear wheels.  AWD is also available for those who desire more confidence in their drivetimes. The new motor is also more fuel efficient with a highway of 32 plus mpg.  

The real fun happens when you take the Stinger onto a twisty country road with its electronic power steering giving you great feedback and quick turn-in.  You just can’t stop that smile growing.  In a vast majority of situations the Stinger 2.5 GT Line is a darn good fun machine and carries the label of a sport sedan proudly.  It even sounds great with the standard Active Sound Design created by Kia with its throaty vibes. 



Styling changes for the 2022 models were minimal and that was fine as the Stinger is one of the best looking Sport Sedans out there. Added was a rad new full-width LED bar connecting the taillights, front LED headlights has a new design, different wheel designs and you will love the new Ascot Green.  Inside its comfy cabin you will see a new 10-3-inch touchscreen that is a lot cleaner and nicer to use.  Navigation, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, wireless phone charger. Leather seating and many other things are also standard. 

The new Stinger is also packed with gobs of standard safety features along with adaptive cruise control.  No digging into your wallet for those extras.  The 2022 Kia Stinger just checks all the boxes for a sports sedan that you will love to be in and just maybe you will take the longer way home just for the fun of it.
