Kia Stinger: Game Changer

Autocar Awards 2018


Every year the British automobile magazine, Autocar, celebrates the arrivals of the new and best cars within the last year by awarding them.

Kia's first Gran Turismo model, the all-new Kia Stinger, has been named a 'Game Changer' at the annual awards. Since the most adventurous model by Kia has arrived in our Barnsley dealership it certainly has been the talk of the showroom! The sporty saloon is Kia's first rear-wheel drive, it offers an incredible performance and a stunning design both inside and out.

Mark Tisshaw, Autocar Editor, said: "What the Korean manufacturer has lacked is a car that makes you sit up and go phwoar' when it rolls past. And with the new Stinger GT, that's exactly what Kia has built. This is a car that's intended to show the world that Kia is also a force to be reckoned with when it comes to creating engaging, dynamically focused, rear-driven drivers’ cars worthy of comparison against Europe's finest."
