Changes to the Stinger in the 2023 Model Year

While there aren’t a ton of changes to the Stinger in the 2023 model year, there are still a few important details, distinctions, and additions. First up, new for the 2023 model year, the Kia Stinger is only available in two trim levels: GT-Line and GT-2. The key difference between them is the engines. In the GT-Line, one will find a turbocharged 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine that generates up to 300 horsepower and 311 pound-feet of torque. The GT-2, on the other hand, has a twin-turbocharged 3.3-liter V6 engine that pumps out up to 368 horsepower and 376 pound-feet of torque. What’s more, while rear-wheel drive comes standard on every Stinger model, all-wheel drive is available as well. In short, no matter which customization you may choose, the 2023 Kia Stinger is sure to deliver an unforgettable driving experience.
