Kia Stinger Tribute Edition, fully unveiled
Tribute Edition

Some things are worth unveiling slowly.

Steel Matte Gray.

A finish that absorbs light instead of reflecting it.

A grand tourer at heart.

Fastback tailgate, five seats, 406 litres of boot.

Black where it counts.

Black mirrors and exhaust tips, 19-inch alloys made only for this car.

Kia Stinger

Tribute Edition

Most cars are built to get you there. This one was built to make you want to keep driving. Every turbo spool, every downshift, every mile was the point, not a means to one. This is our send-off to that feeling.

Under the hood

3.3 V6 Twin-Turbo.

A twin-turbocharged 3.3-litre V6 paired with an 8-speed automatic and rear- or all-wheel drive. Built for long, fast distances, not lap times.

Five details that set it apart.

Paint

Steel Matte Gray

A satin clear coat that scatters light instead of mirroring it, so the body lines read as shape rather than reflection. Exclusive to the Tribute Edition.
