Limited-Run Sport Sedan Sure to Sell Out Quickly




When Kia America unveiled the refreshed 2022 Stinger it teased something special: The Scorpion Special Edition. But little information about this vehicle was provided at the time.




Now, just weeks later, the Scorpion is arriving in dealers. Offered in limited batches of just 250 units per month and built exclusively for the U.S. market. It is expected to sell out quickly and is available on the GT2 RWD and AWD variants in three colors - Snow White Pearl, Aurora Black, and Ceramic Silver.



“Stinger was a wake-up call to a segment long populated by European sport sedans when it debuted in 2017 (as a 2018 model). It redefined what enthusiast drivers thought about Kia and proved we could compete against the best vehicles in a hotly contested space,” said Sean Yoon, president & CEO, Kia North America and Kia America.



“Since then, Stinger has built a loyal following of those looking for something unique and the Scorpion is set to continue that approach.”




    The Scorpion Special Edition features exclusive blacked out fender garnish, side mirror caps, and darkened exhaust tips

    Unique body-colored rear spoiler

    Distinctive 19-inch black wheels

    Exclusive carbon fiber-pattern trim inside the cockpit  

    Available with a Red Nappa Leather or Black Nappa Leather interior




Pricing for the Scorpion Special Edition is $52,585 for RWD and $54,785 for AWD, excluding $1,045 in destination charges.
