2018 Kia Stinger Carrollton TX
Without a doubt the most exciting thing of the 2018 model year, and perhaps even the most exciting thing to ever happen to the Kia lineup as a whole, is the introduction of the brand’s very first sports car. Having drawn inspiration from the Kia GT Concept of 2011, the brand-new 2018 Kia Stinger in Carrollton TX has been so well received that it’s already begun inspiring change in other vehicles on the lineup. Sportiness is in, and the Stinger delivers that in spades.
In a lineup filled with, quite frankly, ordinary sedans and crossovers and even a minivan, the Kia Stinger was a much-needed breath of fresh air. Like the Kia Soul was to the crossover lineup upon its introduction, the Kia Stinger has broadened the brand’s horizons, and now more than ever we cannot wait to see what the future of the brand holds.
