Performance Specs, Fuel Economy and Available Technology

For the first time in the brief time the Stinger has been available, the 2022 model will make at least 300 horsepower across the board. The new entry-level power plant now consists of a turbocharged 2.5-liter, four-cylinder engine that will produce the aforementioned 300 horsepower as well as 311 pound-feet of torque. Buyers looking for more performance will be able to choose the GT1 or GT2 with a twin-turbocharged 3.3-liter, V-6 mill that will produce 368 horsepower and 376 pound-feet of torque. According to the automaker, a 2022 Stinger with the four-cylinder engine can reach up to 130 miles per hour and models with the V-6 will be able to achieve up to 167 mph when using low-resistance summer tires.

The new four-cylinder engine will be able to post 22 miles per gallon in the city and 32 miles per gallon on the highway when using rear-wheel-drive. Buyers who take home the V-6-version can expect to see 18 mpg in the city and 25 mpg on the highway. Both power plants can also use all-wheel-drive which will post only slightly lower fuel-economy scores.

Every 2022 Stinger will be equipped with a 10.25-inch touchscreen interface that will support the Kia navigation system as well as smartphone integration. All three trim grades will offer access to the Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay® suites of applications. A wireless charging tray for compatible smartphones is also a widely available feature in the 2022 Kia Stinger. Finally, the entire 2022 Stinger lineup will be equipped with every Advanced Driver Assistance System feature.
