The KIA GT4 Stinger Concept has a mighty 2-liter that makes 315 hp

With power going to the rear wheels and up to 315 horsepower on tap, the KIA GT4 Stinger Concept looks beefy from this teaser photo. What exactly is it? Making a (somewhat) educated guess, it could be a KIA based on the Hyundai Genesis Coupe’s platform. If that’s the case, it could be a contender for production.

Here’s KIA’s take:

“Kia faithful will immediately notice the latest iteration of the signature grille resting mere inches from the ground. The surround glows white and is flanked by vertical LED headlamps. Front-brake cooling vents funnel air around custom 20-inch wheels. A carbon fiber front splitter mounted below the bumper provides added downforce for the car and keeps the GT4 Stinger’s front tires firmly planted to the tarmac.

Under the hood you ask? A turbocharged 2.0-liter that pumps 315 horsepower to the rear wheels.” – – KIA Media

That’s about all she wrote – for now.

It’s easy to assume that the good people at KIA are preparing the KIA GT4 Stinger for a (possible) debut at the 2014 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit this January. If it’s there, you can rest assured, The Fast Lane Car will all over it.
