  • This week we had chance to test drive Kia Stinger GT. Because 2020 Kia Stinger GT is just a year update, Kia is keeping the changes simple. No design changes are found from outside, but Kia have added few features, so let’s see what this Kia Stinger GT can do.
    Stinger GT
    3.3L Twin Turbo
    370hp@6,000
    376lb.ft@1,300~4,500
    8-speed automatic
    AWD / Torque vectoring

    Kia North America should have the same badging as the Korean version. Most Stinger owners make those modifications anyway. It's just like when Hyundai brought the 2015 Genesis out. Wings were everywhere except on the rear deck lid. Kia is oblivious to the fact that people in the US don't like the KIA badge. A symbol or even a stylized K would be better...especially on the luxury vehicles.
    @Asian Petrolhead, nice vid...if you know anyone at Kia, let them know. They'd move a few more K900's, Cadenza's and Stingers if they took that basic step.

      I know everyone in NA agrees with you guys, but to me, I'd swap out the "E" badge for the real Kia badge. I've lived in Korea for so long, that to me, the Kia badge means quality and style now. Kia's used to be really awful cars. Not today. They're awesome! You just get used to seeing it, and then it looks great. Nobody in the States says GMC should change their badge. Why not? It's ugly. But people are "used to it". Know what I mean? Just my opinion, of course.

    Great review ! Thanks !
    This is the European version which differs a bit from the North American one. My Canadian 2018 Stinger GT Limited already has the directional headlights. And the sound system is the premium Harman Kardon in it, instead of Lexicon. The flashers at the back are not individual small LEDs like shown here, but that might be a 2020 year model change ? Otherwise, it's pretty much identical. Except that the twin turbo engine is listed at 365 hp and not 370 hp here (perhaps due to different emissions regulations in Europe ?). I love my Stinger. It surprises many unsuspecting people when they see it and see me drive away from them really quickly on the road ! ;-)

    Hey, check out the E instead of the KIA badge.:) That’s the Stinger badge in Korea. I put these on my GT2. The trunk is actually quite large.
    I agree the screen should be larger and the screen should split three ways like the Telluride and other new KIA’s.
    I just bought my 2019 Stinger and it’s a bit frustrating to see KIA releasing the 2020 models in Canada with new features and things like red stitching on the steering wheel and dash. In Korea the heads up display is much nicer. The U.S. market always lags behind Korea and Canadian markets.

    I have a model year 2018 Stinger GT2 rear wheel drive, and it has the moving headlights. It does not have the 3 extra cameras (one on the front bumper and one under each rear view mirror) to provide the 360 degree backup camera view, or to be able to cycle through the various camera views on the infotainment screen. I'd guess that if I were to install the factory pieces, they'd be detected and supported by the ECU. The wireless phone charger console that came from the start on the Korean market and for '19 in the US market detects perfectly when installed on a 2018.

    Thank you Mr. Min for the review very informative about new 2020 Stinger GT(GT2). Ever since the launch of the car I was impressed and very surprised at KIA for making their own sporty vehicle that doesn't seem like it was made but them! Since KIA doesn't really give off sport vibes in their brand name or what they generally make this was very unexpected and took my eyes on their first ad definitely makes me want one if I had the money.

    Awesome! However, one of the only modifications I'd make if I was in charge of Kia Stinger's interior would be to redesign the driver's cockpit so that it would face & hug the driver a little bit more. Kinda like what Toyota did with the Supra back in the 90's. Otherwise Kia Has a tremendous hit on their hands! Great Review!!

      Looks like I am going to buy one tomorrow.Things in life happened to allow me to get a new car.I mean honestly with the warranty and the reliability ratings along with the speed.I mean it is literally as fast as a corvette up to its top speed of 167--which is 12 mph faster then much of the European cars because they are governed to 155.A stock 2018 beat a slightly modded mustang GT and there are many videos of this car shaming other fast cars.Kia is also giving a 3k discount on top of me trading in and paying cash--I will be out the door for 22k--I own my trade ins.The AWD not only gives safety--but it can launch this car in under 5 seconds everytime--I have driven American muscle cars and unless it is perfect weather--a mildly sunny day with warm pavement--you can not get the low 4 second times unless you heat the tires up--which means a burnout.With the 3k discount from Kia right now--means the AWD system is free and well worth it--I will post a video soon--plan on getting an exhaust--doubt I need anything else since this car is fantastic out of the box
