"When asked specifically about Kia launching something along the lines of an electric Stinger successor, he replied that Enough to say that we think it is the right time to explore those things. It [the Meta Turismo Concept] is not the only answer, but the fact we're taking this as an opportunity, we feel it's the right time to push these ideas, explore these ideas, work with these ideas, and find the answers we're looking for."
"Late last year, Kia unveiled the Vision Meta Turismo concept, an electric fastback design study that had hints of the gas-powered Stinger sport sedan, which was discontinued in 2023. The concept is not a direct preview for an upcoming production model, but it does signal Kia's intention to produce a vehicle in that space, which will become the brand's halo model and show its future design direction."
Kia unveiled the Vision Meta Turismo concept, an electric fastback design study with visual links to the discontinued gas-powered Stinger. The concept serves as a signal of intent to produce an electric halo vehicle occupying the same sporting fastback space and to establish a new design direction for the brand. The company is exploring emotional forms and product types not currently in the portfolio. The design team views the concept as an exploratory internal study and an opportunity to push, explore, and work with ideas to find answers about creating something more emotional while retaining core brand values.
