The unique combination of heart-throbbing horsepower and decadent interior refinements are what make the luxury sports car segment unique. These cars are aggressive, sexy, and sleek, exuding both elegance and unbridled power. On the inside, luxury sports cars are sophisticated and plush offering handcrafted convenience and comfort. 

While luxury sports cars like the Audi A5, BMW 640i, and Porsche Panamera have long reigned supreme, the Kia Stinger has upset the apple cart. The new 2019 Kia Stinger turns heads and corners with ease - offering everything your heart desires at an unmistakable value. This sportback sedan offers a comfortable, technology-laden interior, thrilling acceleration, and more than enough storage space. 

Let's take a closer look at how the Kia Stinger stands up to competing luxury sports sedans.

The Kia Stinger vs. The Audi A5

The Audi A5 Sportback enjoys a solid reputation as a sporty sedan. Compared to the Stinger, the A5 offers slightly better fuel efficiency, but the Stinger offers better value and performance by far. The Stinger's base turbocharged 2.0-liter I4 engine delivers 255 HP and 260 lb.-ft of torque, outperforming the Audi engine. The Stinger strikes the ideal balance of refinement and power, engineered for the track but built for your journey.

For an even more exhilarating performance, the Stinger GT offers a 3.3L Twin Turbo V6 engine that produces a blistering 365 HP and can accelerate from 0-60 in 4.7 seconds. With a starting MSRP $14,000 below the Audi S5, the GT is a worthy competitor.

2019 Kia Stinger vs. BMW 640i

Compared to the BMW 640i, the Kia Stinger GT posts a blistering 0-60 in 4.7 seconds while the 640i lags behind at 5.4 seconds. The Stinger GT even outperforms the more comparably sized and priced BMW 430i, but the Stinger provides more interior room and still costs less than its German competitor. 

Much of the Stinger's exceptional performance can be attributed to its 3.3L Twin Turbo V6 engine, producing 365 HP. In contrast, the BMW 640i offers a turbocharged 3.0L V6, putting out 335 HP on the Grand Turismo and 315 HP in Gran Coupe models. In short, the Kia Stinger delivers better performance for less than half the cost.

While every dealership may say their brand is better, you don't have to take our word for it. Here's a comparison video from an independent source of the Kia Stinger GT, the BMW 640i, and the Porsche Panamera. The testing highlights four different areas: ·
