Hasty humdinger: Checking out the interior of the Kia Stinger

The Kia Stinger is the South Korean carmaker’s entry to the local sport sedan segment. Here it competes with segment big boys like the Honda Civic Type R, the Toyota Supra, and Nissan GT-R.

It may not be as popular as the aforementioned cars but it managed to gain some following thanks to its sporty design. It mimics the style and substance of gran turismo legends with its long hood, muscular haunches, and stylish spoked wheels.

Those wondering what’s it like to sit behind the wheel of the Kia Stinger will be in for a treat because today, we will look at what’s inside this hasty humdinger.

1. An ample amount of leather

Kia made sure that it paid as much attention to the Kia Stinger’s interior as it did to its exterior. After all, you won’t exactly appreciate that fastback design when you’re in the cabin.

Surprisingly, you’ll find an ample amount of leather which kind of gives the Kia Stinger a classy and luxurious interior. Leather can be found on the seats, the steering wheel, and on the gear shift knob.

What’s more is that the leather doesn’t feel cheap and feels akin to the upscale Nappa varieties found on more popular sports sedans.

2. A tidy multifunctional display

One of the first things you’d notice once you step inside the Kia Stinger is how inviting — and not intimidating — the cabin is. The controls on the steering wheel, as well as the buttons on the dashboard, are easily understandable.

The same goes for the tidy multifunctional display sitting at the center of the dash. The eight-inch infotainment system has AM/FM radio functionality and can still accommodate CDs and MP3s as well as audio via its USB and aux-in ports.

It also has Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto compatibility. It can also be controlled hands-free and through voice recognition.

3. Decent interior amenities

In addition, you’ll also find a slew of decent interior amenities that will make your time driving the Kia Stinger noteworthy.

Included are features like the dual-zone climate control, integrated memory system, and a wireless phone charger.
