Is there a way to turn off the Kia Stonic's engine start-stop feature?

I find the engine start-stop feature on my Kia Stonic to be quite annoying and would like to turn it off. Is there a way to do this?

Unfortunately, there is no way to permanently turn off the engine start-stop feature on your Kia Stonic. However, you can temporarily disable it by pressing the button next to the gear shift. This will disable the feature for that particular trip.

Yes, you can permanently disable the engine start-stop feature on your Kia Stonic by getting a software update from a Kia dealership. This will completely turn off the feature.

I also found the engine start-stop feature to be quite annoying at first, but after using it for a while, I have actually grown to like it. It helps save on fuel and is better for the environment. Give it a chance!
