Kia K5 vs Kia Stinger

Dynamic and Efficient Commutes

One of the first factors you need to consider when choosing your next set of wheels is the type of performance it provides. The 2022 Kia K5 is ready to jump out the gate with the following two powertrain selections:

• 1.6-liter turbo 4-cylinder engine: 180 horsepower and 195 lb-ft of torque
• 2.5-liter turbo 4-cylinder engine: 290 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque

Clearly, these spirited motors are robust enough to invigorate even the sleepiest Monday morning. However, ultra-bold drivers may be hungrier for a little more. If so, turn to the two engine options in the 2022 Kia Stinger:

• 2.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine: 300 horsepower and 311 lb-ft of torque
• 3.3-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine: 368 horsepower and 376 lb-ft of torque

No matter which Kia sedan you opt for, it’s obvious there’s no shortage of power to excite your ride.

Fuel Economy

Not only are these rides commanding, but they also have impressive fuel ratings to offer you. The Kia Stinger helps you cruise right past gas stations with an EPA-estimated 22 city/32 highway MPG.¹ For even better fuel economy, though, opt for the Kia K5, earning an EPA-estimated 29 city/38 highway MPG.¹

Both of these Kia sedans achieve impressive efficiency, thanks to Idle Stop and Go. Coming standard, this system seamlessly shuts off your engine when your Kia vehicle is idling, such as in traffic or at a red light. Once movement resumes, it seamlessly restarts. This helps your motor conserve fuel and stay away from the pump for longer.

Engaging Entertainment

As you zip down the highway in your commanding Kia Stinger or efficient Kia K5, you’ll want to upgrade your drive with the right soundtrack. Luckily, both roadsters come standard with Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay® integration. Simply plug your compatible device into the USB port, and you’ll gain instant access to an array of entertainment apps, including your customized music library.

In the 2022 Kia K5, these features are paired to a standard 8-inch touchscreen with a more expansive 10.25-inch screen available as well. In the 2022 Kia Stinger though, the larger screen is a baseline amenity.
