In a bold move from the company, Kia have introduced a premium Gran Turismo to their range. The Stinger, closely based on the 2011 GT Concept, is a powerful five-door fastback sports sedan available in power outputs of up to 370 PS. The first in their range available in only rear or all-wheel-drive, its 0-100kmph time of 4.9 seconds makes it the fastest production Kia ever made. Also coming to Ireland will be the 2.2l 200 PS Diesel. It will be landing in showrooms before the end of the year, but we got a sneak preview at the international launch in Mallorca.
