The appearance of the GTS version has changed slightly. Among the exterior differences are carbon fiber elements, a new logo, and a rich orange body color.

For the drift version of the Stinger, the D-AWD all-wheel drive transmission was refined, which allows up to 100% of torque to be sent to the rear wheels while maintaining the selected gear. Three driving modes are provided: Comfort, Sport, and Drift. In addition, the car is equipped with a self-locking differential on the rear axle and a modernized 8-speed automatic transmission.

The production run of the Kia Stinger GTS will be limited to 800 units. The starting price of the model is $44,000.
