Kia Australia chief operating officer Damien Meredith said the Stinger is proving increasingly popular with police. “The Stinger is not only an outstanding performance vehicle but is backed by Kia’s industry-leading ownership experience, whether that be for private, government or fleet buyers.” “Traditionally some manufacturers have been cut out because the governments have had a policy of buying Australian made,” he said.But Hepworth admits the growing brand is “still fighting brand prejudice”, both in private and fleet sales.The twin-turbocharged V6 Stinger will replace Australian-built, V8-powered Holden Commodore SS models in the Northern Territory’s highway patrol fleet.
