2022 Kia Stinger in Little Rock, Arkansas

Kia has come far from its budget brand origins in North America. They’ve created a vehicle capable of giving the luxury brands a race for their money without losing Kia’s practicality. The refined 2022 Kia Stinger is a testament to the comfort that can be found in power. The power is provided by a 2.5-liter twin-turbocharged engine, U.S. standard rear-wheel drive, and 300 horsepower that you can hear as you take on the road. This sports sedan has a leather interior wrapped in a sleek exterior.

The exterior of the car is the first thing people notice, for obvious reasons. So, let’s talk about the exterior. 

Design

While updating the exterior design for the 2022 model, Kia focused more on movement that inspires. The GT Line trim particularly keeps to classic elements. The end result is a daring exterior with dark chrome accents. The updates include a longer hood and an angled windshield to accommodate the lower cabin. This design keeps aerodynamics in mind. The rear designs include wide fenders and large caliber dual twin-exit exhaust. 

Headlights 

The 2022 Stinger comes with LED headlights, taillights, and turn signals. The taillights themselves stretch across the back of the car above the license plate. The goal is to boost visibility in a handful of situations. 

Engine

Let’s check under the hood. The engines available to the 2022 Kia Stinger are a 2.5-liter four-cylinder with 300 horsepower or a 3.3-liter twin-turbocharged V6 with 368 horsepower. The available all-wheel drive pairs nicely with the launch control feature by giving you the ability to take off whenever you need. 

Now that we’ve seen the exterior, let’s take a seat and look at the interior. 

Seats

The Stinger comes with heated front seats, a plus for cool Arkansas mornings or early January winter days. The contoured bucket seats are situated lower so the driver and passengers are closer to the floor of the car. The seats were created with comfort in mind, without taking your focus away from the road. 

Advanced Driver Assistance Technology

The 2022 Stinger is equipped with standard advanced driver assistance technology including a Surround View Monitor, Lane Keeping Assist, Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go, and Forward Collision Avoidance Assist. The latter can automatically hit your brakes if it detects there is something too close to the front of your Stinger. 

Interior Additions

One of the first noticeable additions would be the 10.25-inch touchscreen added above the middle air vents, vents inspired by those on airplanes. If you’re looking for a comparison, the typical phone screen is four to 6.5 inches. This screen is navigation-enabled and able to connect to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. In addition to the touchscreen, the Kia Stinger comes with a sunroof, balanced audio speakers, and a Head Up Display. 

Kia Connected Services

When purchasing a Kia, including the 2022 Kia Stinger, you have the option of Kia Connected Services. This will give you access to a UVO link, which makes it possible to connect your car to your personal devices. There is even a downloadable app to connect to your car through your smartwatch. One of the perks of using UVO is the valet mode. Valet mode allows you to monitor the distance, time, and speed of your vehicle while activated. The driving information will be another way to keep track of your new 2022 Kia Stinger. With the UVO link, you can also find your car with the Surround View Monitor and connect your calendar to your Stinger’s touchscreen. With the Last Mile Navigation feature, your touchscreen navigation system will send walking directions to your phone if there is no close parking available by your destination.

With the push for symmetry, Kia wishes to inspire in its drivers, it must be mentioned that the 2022 Kia Stinger has the new Kia emblem on its front and back, as well as on the steering wheel. 

Don’t let the smooth strokes of the new emblem fool you. Kia’s 2022 Stinger provides a sharp-edged personality and comfort to its passengers.
