Entry-level rear-drive V6 to pack plenty of fruit
Kia Australia has today revealed the comfort and convenience features that will be standard in its V6 Stinger models from launch in October.
Previously, the importer had announced pricing for the rear-wheel drive V6 model that will be joined later by turbocharged four-cylinder variants.
According to today's press release, the basic Stinger S – priced at $48,990 – will come equipped as standard with hill assist, rear-view camera with dynamic parking guidelines, rear cross traffic alert, active hood pedestrian protection, LED daytime running lights, seven airbags (including a kneebag for the driver), three child safety seat restraint points (two ISOFIX), 18-inch wheels and 225/45R18 Continental ContiSport Contact 5 tyres.
Other items include a 3.5-inch trip computer display, eight-way electric seat adjustment for the driver, six-way electric adjustment for the front passenger, cruise control, two 12V power outlets, two USB ports, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and Bluetooth connectivity with music streaming.
For the next level up, the Stinger Si, the additional standard kit comprises 19-inch alloys with 225/40R front tyres and 255/35R19 rears, Autonomous Emergency Braking with Forward Collision Warning, Lane Keeping Assist, Driver Attention Alert, front parking sensors, rain-sensing wipers, adaptive cruise control, an eight-inch infotainment touch screen and nine-speaker audio. The price for this variant is $55,990.
Topping the range is the Stinger GT, priced from $59,990. Standard features for the flagship include 360-degree camera view, Blind Spot Detection, Dynamic Bending Lights, High Beam Assist, full-colour Heads Up Display (HUD), electrochromic door mirrors, LED headlights with auto levelling, powered sunroof, a seven-inch colour trip computer screen, alloy sports pedals, suede headlining and pillar trims, plus wireless phone recharging.
In addition, the Stinger GT also packs a 15-speaker Harman Kardon audio system, a 'D-cut' steering wheel, two-position seat memory, Nappa upholstery with GT logos, adjustable lumbar support, electric bolster and seat base adjustment. Along with other colours available, the Stinger GT can also be ordered in two exclusive colours, Aurora Black and Snow White Pearl.
All three models are powered by the same 3.3-litre twin-turbo V6, driving through an eight-speed automatic transmission to the rear wheels. Kia claims the engine will produce 273kW and 510Nm for a 0-100km/h dash in 4.9 seconds. Launch control is standard across all three variants, as are a mechanical limited-slip differential and Brembo brakes front and rear.
"There is a belief that any entry-level model will be, for want of a better description, sparse," Kia Australia COO, Damien Meredith, was quoted saying in the press release.
"That is not the case with the Stinger. The S has the same brilliant 3.3-litre bi-turbo engine as the GT, the same eight-speed gearbox with sports paddles as the GT and the same ability to sprint from 0-100km/h in 4.9 seconds.
"And there is safety and comfort equipment in this car that you would not normally see in anything but the top of the model range, including satellite navigation.
"It simply represents outstanding value – starting with the S but stretching across the range."
As for the four-cylinder Stinger, motor vehicle certification data posted online indicates the four-pot models will be around 87kg lighter than the V6 models and will produce 182kW. Like the V6 models, the turbocharged four-cylinder will drive to the rear wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission.
