Kia dares something. A fantastically drawn Gran Turismo named Stinger will compete against the established Audi S5, Jaguar XE or Mercedes C43 AMG competition. Equipped with V6 biturbo, the 3.3 T-GDI AWD is strongly motorized and brings 370 PS & 510 NM torque to all four wheels. What was immediately successful with the optics is not completely continued in the technology. In a direct comparison with an Audi S354 Sportback 5 TFSI quattro (B3.0) with "only" 9 hp, the Stinger needs almost 0,4 seconds longer to accelerate to 100 km / h and can even sprint to 200 km / h Not "sting".
Even worse is this record when you face a facelift C43 AMG with 390 PS from Mercedes and even a relatively weak BMW F30 340i with 326 PS xDrive and automatic is not necessarily slower. Reason enough for the DTE System team to take care of the Stinger and to rebalance the balance of power. By means of tuning box PowerControl X the performance of the Stinger on 420 PS (+ 50 PS) and 624 Nm (+ 114 Nm) high and so the competition is back behind the Korean.
Incidentally, the system can be easily controlled via DTE Systems' PowerControl app via the smartphone, allowing the driver to choose their personal setup at will. The last bit of agility can also be teased out with the PedalBox +, which is also available for the Stinger.
