Yes but bad engine. Use to much fuel. Specially since years and higher fuel prices in most countries ,make no sence to buy it. Otherwise I would have one.
@bartoszbielawski8558 sure you can see this like this way, as this is your right. but for me it has to be more efficiency. I don't say the engine is bad overall. I say it use to much fuel in comparison to many other car companies. Sure now you could say "the price is cheaper and you can't await a German engine" but my reply would be, I can, because for me it's important even I could buy this car in cash. But we are both not here to start a competition. I shared my thoughts and I had the car for test and it wasn't an easy decision to don't buy it. But when the car come out we had plenty engines which used up to 5L easily less fuel as this kia. I think it depends where you live and what price you have to pay for fuel. I am sure it's a bit differentif you pay less a dollar for 1L or 2€ for a Liter for example. Regards. BTW English isn't my main language. So hopefully everything can be understood.
@@selsin I very much doubt you would find different 3 litre engine that would in real life show difference bigger than +-2 litres per 100 km on average. Real life, no on paper. 2 litres on 100k km is the difference of 2000 litres only. Pretty insignificant conisdering the price of the car itself. I would also argue KIA is more reliable than average BMW, cost far less to buy, cost far less to repair and it's not common. BMW is everywhere.... Fast KIA is. Nowhere.
Not sure how other recent cars gives sports mode feeling, but Stinger really does do something when you change it to sports mode. Recently had a chance to drive one, super awesome experience
I had 435D and sports mode + gearbox in sport plus and that was something. I miss it every day I have to drive my current automobile. Hopefully my next purchase will be either Stinger or Giulia.

@@tvrtkocro28 they aren’t “longer gears” the first couple just aren’t as close as the zf8, but 4-7 are fantastic and very nice ratios.. especially for a top speed run
@dany91307 sales weren't bad on them, reason was because they wanted to shift production to EVs so now the EV9, EV6, k4, and Nero EV will be streamlined..
@@chancecarlson2023Actually sales were bad according to Kia themselves. It seems like this car was never profitable to them, even compared to something like the EV6.
The acceleration and top speed is very similar to my previous car Mercedes C32 AMG from 2003 (3.2L V6 354HP. My fastest speed was 281km/h but with weak wind).
And the best point is. This Kia has the Bastuck Exhaust System. On the left side of the steering wheel (you see it behind the blinker) is a Button to open the exhaust over 70km/h. This will make this Kia Sounds even better.
I knew these would not sell well because Kia. I don't think they are on par with the competing Audi/BMW/MB, but they were the next step down at a significantly cheaper price. They are seriusly nice cars for what they are all things considered. Shame they did not launch it as a Genesis or something, might have caught on a bit more like the G70.
RIP Stinger, one of the best cars that KIA ever made.
The best

Beauty the sound of the motor when it´s accelerating.

I felt like I was just being Ubered around and I loved every second of it. Very smooth, yet fast ride... therapeutic.

Komisch, seit ich meinen eigenen Stinger habe, gucke ich noch immer solche Videos über andere Stinger.
Ich liebe das Auto einfach.
Ich überlege einen zu kaufen…aber die Geräusche hier im Video ab 250 km/h nerven. Geräusche in ihrem auch so?

I love the gear spacing on Kias 8 speed auto, I honestly prefer these ratios over the zf8
Longer gears?

@@mhubi2968 that's him taking his foot off the gas.
2022 and 2023 got the best tranny out of all the Stingers. They really dialed in the tranny in the later years, it shifts pretty quickly too.
This is why I recently bought one, beautiful car.
I bought one too, but it was in a dream.
@@onesandzeroes Keep dreaming (and put that money away) and one day you will have your own.

Fantastic piece of work ❤

Oh man I thought these were discontinued as of couple years ago! Glad to see them again
Stinger was discontinued
2023 was last production year unfortunately I believe, there might be a 2024 (?), but yes, discontinued as sales were not doing too well
@dany91307 sales weren't bad on them, reason was because they wanted to shift production to EVs so now the EV9, EV6, k4, and Nero EV will be streamlined..
If you want one, get a 2022 Scorpion. Fully loaded with the better infotainment.

Exciting test drive! The car performed well, making me think about buying it. Thanks for the review!
You are doing amazing ... Bigg fan of your videos 😍
Lucky enough to have a 2018 gt-1.
Wish we could open it up like that in the states 😊

This is absolutely fantastic 😊
Thank you for the great silent review
I’d to know how is the air noise isolation please
Wow beautiful drive
For such big and powerful engine the consumption it's really reasonable. Great car indeed!
Not bad at all for a Kia ! - Sounds and goes like a BMW 335i !
In my “kia” I’ve beat my buddy in his 440. 😂 335 is laughable

This will make this Kia Sounds even better.
@@Munin666 Agreed
@@BITTYBOY121 Just bad that he did not used this button. Or i just didnt see it.

Nice performance
So much better looking than BMW, and since it is a KIA, much better quality, less repairs and much longer warranty.
Much better quality 😂 Ehm, no?
@@dinohermann1887 Yes, less malfunctions and repairs, and 10 years of warranty opposed to bmw's 3 to 5 years.
Fantastic

Nice watching how the pilot accelerate in the highway and surpass the another vehicles.
That's amazing

Is that an electric infrastructure for the upcoming electric trucks?
This car is awesome I wish I could buy this in future.
Good job 👍👏
