Equipment details for the Australia Kia Stinger has been leaked! Prices are still unknown, but CarAdvice reader said the Stinger will be offered locally in six trims, split equally between the 2.0-litre four-cylinder and 3.3-litre six-cylinder turbocharged petrol engines.

I'm a bit surprised the 330S will be coming with a set of Brembo brakes, not something you usually see in affordable cars.

The 330S trim seems quite filled with features that are pretty surprising. The only thing that won't be standard on it that's notable is the AEB which I don't really care for anyways so that's no issue.

Really want to see pricing on all of this before I get too excited though. That's going to be the kicker.

Kia sales seems to be doing pretty well in Australia according to caradvice. Their goal is 200 cars sold for October alone and admittedly, they could sell more but Kia just isn't producing enough of them to meet demand and take advantage of the interest in the Stinger.

Does that mean Stinger delivery is going to take a long time for buyers globally? I assume production is backed up for more than just Australia.

I think at this point its a matter of us waiting for the to announce more shifts on the production line. Wasn't easy for them to justify bringing this to market and during a time like this often car makers adjust as they go. Seen it happen all the time.
