Our most recent review of the 2019 Kia Stinger resulted in a score of 8.9 out of 10 for that particular example.

Carsguide Contributor Dan Pugh had this to say at the time: Kia deserves high praise for the Stinger GT. They have produced a real head-turner that will happily play the role of family taxi, and, when prodded, deliver true grin-inducing sports car thrills and performance.

Kia Stinger 2019 Interior

The Stinger's interior is undoubtedly the most desirable of any vehicle ever sold by Kia in Australia.

It looks good, no matter which spec you’re going for, and the dimensions are pretty accommodating - you need to remember the size of this car, because it’s pretty big. Check out the interior images of the sleek dashboard design to see what we mean. The flagship GT and GT-Line models are sumptuously appointed with leather seat trim, and the S version's smaller 7.0-inch touchscreen can’t quite match the bigger tablet in those premium models.

Shown above are interior details for the Kia Stinger 2019.

Kia Stinger 2019 FAQs

Why does the sunroof rattle in my Kia Stinger GT?

The NSW Office of Fair Trading has a Disciplinary Action Unit (DAU) which, on the surface, appears to be able to sanction companies or enforce findings by the department. Which leaves me wondering how Kia has managed to brush off that authority by refusing the refund recommended by the department. Perhaps you would be wise to contact the ACCC (the old Consumer Affairs Department) as this organisation has some real teeth.

The question, however, is whether you’ve given Kia sufficient opportunity to fix the problem. Form what you’ve said, that’s probably the case, but all disputes of this nature rely on the car-maker being given every chance to make things right. That said, your frustration is understandable and, even if the problem is eventually rectified, your opinion of the vehicle will probably be permanently coloured.

For the record, plenty of other owners of the Kia Stinger have complained about exactly the same problem, so it appears that it’s a real concern and not one of which Kia could possibly be unaware. I’ve heard of some owners having the sunroof frame replaced and that fixing the problem. So perhaps there’s a tolerance problem in the manufacturing of the sunroof frames. The point there being that replacing the original frame with another one that is out of spec will simply reproduce the same problem. Perhaps that’s what’s happening to your car.

Kia Stinger: Did it live up to expectation?

Kia’s target for the Stinger was originally 200 per month, and while it has sold 150-160 per month the company says it is not disappointed. They are buoyed by the fact that more than 80 per cent of the sales are the top-spec 3.3-litre GT. They are also encouraged that three state police forces have signed up for Stinger – Queensland, WA and the Northern Territory – and South Australia is still looking at it, while Victoria and NSW are showing renewed interest in the car.
