Hearkening back to the glory days of purebred, affordable sports cars, Kia Motors America (KMA) today unveiled the brand’s most aggressive concept car ever when wraps came off the GT4 Stinger at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS). Kia’s eye-catching design language moves in a bold new direction with the introduction of the GT4 Stinger. The concept pushes the boundaries of performance with a rear-drive 2+2 sports car that places man and machine in harmony on the road or track. It comes as no surprise that the GT4 Stinger is the wild style child of Kia’s California design team, home to its 2012 predecessor, the Track’ster concept. And like the Track’ster, the GT4 Stinger’s racy appeal is more than skin deep.

Ihre Teenie-Tochter überschüttet Sie ständig mit Neuigkeiten über Justin Bieber? Sie können mit der Musik dieses Herrn aber nicht viel anfangen und Ihre Tochter ist deshalb enttäuscht? Wie wäre es denn mit einem Gespräch über die automobilen Vorlieben des 19-Jährigen? Justin Bieber besitzt trotz seines jugendlichen Alters eine stattliche Sportwagen-Sammlung. Er besitzt auch einen Audi R8. Für welches exakte Modell er sich entschieden hat, ist kaum bekannt. Schließlich gibt es drei verschiedene R8-Versionen. Zum einen den 430 PS starken Achtzylinder. Außerdem gibt es einen betörend klingenden 525 PS leistenden V10. Die Speerspitze hört auf den Namen Audi R8 V10 plus. Das „Plus“ zeigt sich zum einen im Leistungszuwachs. 550 PS sorgen für ordentlich Vortrieb. Dieser endet erst bei stattlichen 317 Km/h. Damit die Leistung beim Standartsprint nicht in hilflos durchdrehenden Reifen verraucht, ist der quattro-Antrieb bei allen R8 an Bord. Dank dieser unerlässlichen Traktionshilfe und einer serienmäßigen Launch-Control lässt sich der R8 V10 plus in 3,5 Sekunden auf Tempo 100 beschleunigen – katapultieren umschreibt den Vorgang treffender... Da dem Justin Bieber die Farbauswahl aber anscheinend zu langweilig war, hat der Supersportwagen des Musikers eine sehr individuelle Farbgebung – ihn ziert der Leopardenlook…
