Kia Cadenza: The New Face of Luxury

Our new model, the Kia Cadenza, has been a long time coming, and we couldn't be more excited. As Kia's first luxury vehicle, it hit the market with a bang. It's affordable prices, beautiful interior and exterior, and competitiveness within the luxury car market have all caught the eye of buyers and critics alike.

The 2014 Cadenza includes: 

• 3.3L Vx6 engine 
• Automatic transmission 
• Up to 19 cty/28 hwy mpg 
• Navigation System 
• Bluetooth 
• iPod input 
• Satellite radio 
• Side/Curtain Airbags 
• Stability Control 
• Traction Control 

Edmunds.com raves about the Cadenza saying, "The front-wheel-drive Cadenza is longer and wider than the Optima and essentially shares its platform with cousin Hyundai's Azera. As such, it packs a 3.3-liter V6 with 293 horsepower along with a six-speed automatic. Kia tweaked the steering and suspension to give it a more sporting personality than its relative. But this is still more a luxury cruiser than a sport sedan. And as we'd now expect from Kia, the Cadenza offers a wealth of standard and optional high-end features along with sharp styling that manages to make it stand apart from the crowd without looking strange."

If you want more features, Kia offers Premium and Technology packages:

• The Premium Package adds a panoramic sunroof, adaptive high-intensity-discharge headlights, a 7-inch screen in the instrument cluster, premium leather upholstery, heated front and rear outboard seats, a ventilated driver's seat with an extendable cushion and memory feature, a power-adjustable heated steering wheel, and a power rear sunshade. 

• With the Technology Package, the Cadenza comes with 19-inch wheels instead of 18-inch rims, an electric parking brake, adaptive cruise control with full-stop capability, a "water-repellant" windshield, a blind spot warning system, and a lane departure warning system.

We're very impressed with the Kia Cadenza, and so many others are too! It is quickly bringing a competitive, more affordable edge to the luxury car market. Are you impressed? Come in to test drive one TODAY (you will even automatically be entered to win a 2013 Kia Soul). And remember, next week for the 4th of July, all invoices are in the window! No haggle, no hassle, just rock bottom prices on Optimas, Rios, Souls, Sorentos, Sportages, and even Cadenzas!
