2022 Audi A3 vs. 2022 Kia Stinger

Westchester car buyers are particularly impressed with the small yet loaded 2022 Audi A3. This vehicle deserves the rave reviews it is getting; thanks to its reliable list of safety features, and well-appointed cabin.

Trying its luck to topple down the A3 is the 2022 Kia Stinger. This one, like its Audi counterpart, is packed with standard features. Expect changes in its interior and exterior styling too.

Design & Style

The 2022 Audi A3 definitely has that level of luxury that you are looking for in a sporty sedan. This makes it a hit among car buyers out there. It has also been leather upholstered which proves that the materials used to design it are of premium quality. There is even an option to upgrade to memory sits. Front and heated seats are standard to the ride.

That of the 2022 Kia Stinger definitely lags behind the A3 when it comes to styling. Yes. It has made some improvements in its exterior and interior design, but its roomy cargo and leather seats are the only things one will be impressed about in this aspect. Those less than comfortable seats make it a disappointment.

Technology & Safety

The 2022 Audi A3 is well-packed with the technologies that every car lover is looking for. Its automatic temperature control also comes with a window defroster. The 10.1-inch touch screen display responds quickly to user commands, plus integrates Apple CarPlay and Android Auto using wireless technology. It is equipped with the Pre-Sense Basic that automatically tightens seatbelts during imminent crash. Forward automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning is also standard via its Pre-Sense Front. It also has a rearview camera and lane departure warning.

Gifted with a 10.25-inch touch screen, the 2022 Stinger finds its comfort zone when it comes to technologies. This one can even be personalized, and is easy-to-use. It is slim in terms of safety features though since it only offers automatic emergency braking, and pedestrian as well as cyclist detection.

Performance

Giving off about 201 horsepower for the Audi A3 is a turbo-four engine. A turbo-five version exists to aspirate 401 horsepower. That of the stinger gives drivers a choice between the base turbo-four that aspirates 300 horsepower, and a V6 that only releases up to 386 horsepower.

The Bottom Line

While the 2022 Kia Stinger tries hard to impress in terms of its technologies, it still lacks the charm and elegance that the 2022 Audi A3 is ready to offer to its users. It is true that its base engine releases more power, but that in itself comes with a price. These said, we give this battle to the Audi A3.
