A gran turismo with a fastback twist
Drive a Stinger
A Kia Stinger rental puts you behind the wheel of Kia's fastback sport sedan, built for the 2018–2023 model years. It's rear-wheel drive with available AWD and turbo power on tap — a true gran turismo with room for five. Browse every Kia rental on Turo to compare the lineup.
You can rent a Kia Stinger on Turo from a local vehicle owner, then choose pickup or delivery options that fit your plans. Kia ended Stinger production after the 2023 model year, so a rental is a straightforward way to experience one.

Twin-turbo power, built for the long way
Yes, the Kia Stinger is a fast car. The GT2's 3.3L twin-turbo V6 makes 368 hp and 376 lb-ft of torque through an eight-speed automatic. Kia rates the rear-drive version at 0-60 mph in 4.7 sec — sport-sedan pace in a fastback shape.
Five drive modes on tap
Drive Mode Select lets you tune the Stinger to your trip with five modes: Eco, Sport, Comfort, Smart, and Custom. Pick Eco for a relaxed freeway cruise, Sport for a winding back road, and Custom to mix settings your way. It's an easy way to make the same car feel right for a Monday commute and a Saturday escape.
GT2 trims add electronically controlled suspension to the mix, giving you another layer of control over how the car responds. Check your listing to confirm the trim, then spend your first few miles trying each mode. You'll find your favorite fast — and you'll likely switch between them more than you expect.
A turbo four that still thrills
The GT-Line 2.5T proves you don't need six cylinders to have fun. Its turbocharged four-cylinder makes 300 hp and 311 lb-ft of torque, and Kia rates it at 0-60 mph in 5.2 sec. That's quick enough to make every on-ramp feel like an invitation.
It's also the thriftier pick for longer trips. In rear-wheel-drive form, the GT-Line earns 22 mpg city, 32 mpg highway, and 25 mpg combined. You get the same fastback shape, five seats, and eight-speed automatic as the V6 — with fewer stops at the gas station along the way.
Stand out with a Stinger
A Stinger turns a weekend getaway, a special occasion, or a long road trip into an event. Five seats and 23.3 cu ft of cargo space keep it practical, so friends and luggage both make the cut. For more cars with this kind of energy, explore sports car rental options on Turo.
Top Stinger features
Fastback design with liftback practicality
The Stinger's standout features are its fastback design, its Brembo brakes and tech-rich cabin, and its status as a modern classic in the making.
The Stinger looks like a coupe and works like a hatchback. Its long, low fastback roofline gives it a profile that turns heads in any parking garage. The sleek shape hides a practical secret, too.
Instead of a traditional trunk lid, the Stinger uses a liftback that swings open with the rear glass. That opening reveals 23.3 cu ft of cargo space, so suitcases, golf bags, and weekend gear slide in without a fight. It's the rare sport sedan that handles an airport run as gracefully as a canyon drive.
Brembo brakes and a cabin of tech
The GT2 pairs serious stopping power with a cabin full of tech. Brembo brakes come on the GT2, giving the twin-turbo V6 the confident braking its power deserves.
Inside, a 10.25-inch touchscreen (GT-Line and up) keeps navigation and music within easy reach. The GT2 adds a head-up display that projects key info into your line of sight, so your eyes stay on the road. A Harman Kardon premium audio system with 15 speakers comes standard on the GT2, so your road-trip playlist fills the cabin.
A modern classic in the making
The Stinger is on its way to modern-classic status, with a production run spanning only the 2018–2023 model years. That short run gives it built-in collector appeal, and no new ones are coming.
The final year brought the 2023 Tribute Edition, limited to 440 units in the US and 1,000 worldwide. Renting one lets you experience a finite chapter of Kia history firsthand — no long-term commitment required. Snap a few photos, savor the drive, and see why this fastback earned its fan base.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Stinger
Get to know your Stinger
Before you book, confirm the trim, plan your fuel stops, and compare prices across listings. These quick checks help you get the Stinger that fits your trip.
Stinger trims drive differently, so check the listing before you book. The GT-Line uses a 2.5L turbo four with 300 hp, while the GT2 brings the 3.3L twin-turbo V6 and 368 hp. Both come with an eight-speed automatic and either rear-wheel drive or AWD — the listing shows which you're getting.
Cross-shopping other performance cars? Compare a Dodge Charger rental or a Ford Mustang rental for a different take on power.
Stinger driving tips
Plan fuel stops around the Stinger's 15.9-gal tank. The V6 averages 20 mpg combined, while the GT-Line with rear-wheel drive averages 25 mpg combined. That gap adds up on a long road trip.
Try a few drive modes early to find the setup you like. And keep it within posted limits — this car gathers speed quickly.
How much does it cost to rent a Stinger?
Stinger rental prices vary by year, trim, location, and trip dates, since local vehicle owners set their own rates. Search your dates on Turo to see current prices.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
