Used 2021 Kia Stinger Sedan Trims Comparison
Trim level differences
The 2021 Kia Stinger is a midsize sedan with a hatchback-style liftgate. It is sold in four trims: GT-Line, GT, GT1 and GT2. The GT-Line is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (255 horsepower, 260 lb-ft of torque). All others use a turbocharged 3.3-liter V6 (365 hp, 376 lb-ft). An eight-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive are standard across the board, and all-wheel drive is available on any trim. Feature highlights include:
Which Stinger trim does Edmunds recommend?
The turbocharged four-cylinder is fine, but the Stinger is a sport sedan through and through. You owe it to yourself to get the most powerful version possible. That makes the GT the best starting point. For our money, the GT1 is the way to go. Over and above the base GT, you get all manner of performance and luxury bits, including adaptive suspension dampers, ventilated seats, a larger touchscreen and a kicking sound system. We think it's a steal.
