GT models get a small power boost, but the base model is up to 300 ponies.
Today is the day Kia fans in the States have been waiting for. The mildly refreshed 2022 Kia Stinger is now official, and all the rumors we heard about the car are true. Considering it previously debuted in other markets some time ago it's not exactly a surprise, but still, sometimes things get lost in translation. That's not the case here, especially under the hood where more power greets all Stinger shoppers, regardless of trim level.
That's where we'll start this 2022 overview. Gone is the turbocharged 2.0-liter engine that previously powered lower-spec Stingers. The base engine is now a turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder delivering 300 horsepower (224 kilowatts) and 311 pound-feet (422 Newton-meters) of torque for the GT-Line. That's a healthy 45-hp (34 kW) increase over the old model, and as such, Kia says it will reach 60 mph in an estimated 5.2 seconds.
