For the time being, KLMC will only showcase its vehicles at significant dealerships in Karachi. The Kia Stinger and Niro EV are the vehicles in discussion.

As part of their marketing strategy, KLMC previewed these cars as early as 2020. The aforementioned cars plus a Sorento were decked out in #WeAreUnstoppable livery, which significantly increased online attention.

The Honda HR-V, Toyota RAV4, and other comparable cars are in direct competition with Niro on the market. The Niro EV has two available powertrains:

a single electric motor driving the front wheels with 394 Newton-meters (Nm) of torque and 130 horsepower (hp).
a single electric motor that produces 394 Nm of torque and 201 horsepower for the front wheels.

The 39.2 kWh lithium-ion battery pack in the 13 horsepower variant enables a WLTP-approved range of 288 kilometers on a single charge. The 64 kWh lithium-ion battery pack in the 201 horsepower variant offers a WLTP-approved range of 385 kilometers after a full charge.

The Kia Stinger GT, a mid-size executive Sportback that competes with vehicles like the Audi A5, is the second vehicle. The 3.3-liter twin-turbocharged V6 petrol engine in the GT model produces 368 horsepower and 510 Nm of torque. It has an 8-speed automatic transmission to provide power to the rear wheels or all four axles, depending on the market.

Market reports claim that KLMC has no immediate intentions to introduce the aforementioned vehicles in Pakistan and that this display is only a publicity stunt.
