Hello.
I am Uniji, an automotive influencer.

The Kia Stinger, which created a sensation in the domestic automotive market in 2017, has now become history after being discontinued six years after its launch.
As of April 10, Kia has ended production of the Stinger sports sedan.
The remaining inventory is approximately 40 units.
Experts predict that this stock will quickly sell out through discounts.
Meanwhile, the Kia Stinger generated buzz upon its launch in 2017.
Many enthusiasts fell in love with the Stinger's appeal, leading them to purchase one.
Over time, they became even more enamored with the sports sedan and decided to buy it again.
The allure of the Kia Stinger was undeniable.
However, the Kia Stinger gained more popularity overseas than in Korea.
Most of its sales figures show a significant dominance in international markets.
Since its launch, the Stinger has sold a total of 136,417 units globally through March of this year, with 111,899 units sold overseas.
This means that 80% of total sales come from international markets, leaving only about 24,000 units operating in Korea.
Of course, Kia has launched various edition models to boost Stinger sales.
A notable example is the Dream Edition, created to celebrate surpassing 5,000 cumulative contracts shortly after the launch.
This was followed by the Alcantara Edition and the Acro Edition, which featured popular trims and materials.
Finally, they introduced the Tribute Edition, marking the end of the Stinger.
In total, they presented four different editions.
One of the most striking features is the exclusive colors available for the Tribute Edition, including 'Moonscape Matte Gray' and 'Ascot Green.' Customers can choose from these two exterior colors.
The Tribute Edition, which marks the end of the Kia Stinger, will be limited to 200 units in Korea and 800 units overseas, totaling just 1,000 vehicles.
As a result, the Kia Stinger will soon fade into history.
The Kia Stinger, a sports sedan introduced by Kia, has represented significant value and meaning in various ways.
As we enter the era of electrification, we look forward to the high-performance electric model, the Kia EV6 GT, which promises to bring about new changes.
