[Korea's financial standing hyomun newspaper reporters] are bent on testing the performance of Kia Motors 'Stinger'.
Mobis, Kia unveiled the 22 days of driving performance and safety-related tests at the Winter Stinger field test sites are located in small towns eg plugs (Arjeplog) in northern Sweden 22 days. Examples are the plugs have a lot of sections that are eye-catching, such as cars and ice friction of the road surface down to go down to as low as minus 40 degrees cold areas. In these circumstances, the car has traction because they become significantly easier to slip off the car to be seen driving denoted verify the driving stability of the car to the limit.
Because of this, the site has a driving Kia's just plugs are also examples as the world's leading automobile manufacturers and conduct experiments in a low-friction running stability period for new vehicles.
Nearly 150 Stinger development team plans to improve this model to be equipped with all the sophisticated Stinger handling and comfortable ride through tests in a low-friction environment, for example, plugs are in the exam.
Development team is focusing on ▲ Check the Stinger anti-lock brake system (ABS) ▲ vehicle attitude control system (TCS, ESC) ▲ 4-wheel drive features directly related to driving stability, etc. (AWD) in cold weather conditions.
Whilst Stinger will undergo various verification from all over the world, such as Nurburgring, driving the Mojave Experiment Station, Alps region ahead of the winter test of the maturity has increased. Nurburgring in Germany, called the "Green Hell" Stinger harsh driving environments is driving the more than 10,000 km and has proven its durability.
Of the total 20.8km Nürburgring course and consists of 73 corners and a severe height difference of up to 300m, steep downhill, S-courses, such as high-speed straight reproduce most of the road conditions on Earth.
Nurburgring In known that is comparable to that of the world's leading car makers driving the test vehicle to give a lot of strain on the car, such as repeating a sharp drop in accelerated class to speed 200km 1 10 000 km of roads 18 10 000 km when driving .
Albert bieoman Hyundai, Kia, high-performance car development, vice president of "verifying the Stinger in the weather, the low-friction road surface such as harsh conditions of cold and should want to implement a driving emotion that customers are seeking in a performance sedan," he said "sameu a top priority for our customers safe yet fun and said that the development of the car to enjoy the outstanding driving performance. "
Meanwhile, Kia Motors has conducted over the past 15 to 17 with certain influential global media reporters prior experience test-ride event Stinger target. Reporters are participating in the exercise conducted at the test site for example plugs while watching a demonstration of the drift and slalom driving range Stinger test drive the prototype vehicle from a low-friction zone and had time to experience the outstanding driving performance.
