Beautiful vehicle, attention needed to small detai

The Cadenza is styled sleekly with a grill and headlight package that gives the vehicle a sport but luxe look. Everything from the leather wrapped sport steering wheel and its turbo charged engine moves the car rapidly in sport mode. The interior cabin is quiet but the wide pano roof lets rear passengers enjoy a great view of surrounding and sky. Smooth ride. Comfortable leather interior, easy user navigation of entertainment and instrument panel. Auto Android makes the vehicle safe, along with the lane departure and front crash warnings. Great trunk space and flip seats adds to totability. Nice. The small tweaks - Wi-Fi is not a hotspot, instead you have to connect your own phone to make certain features work, such as the SoundHound feature. Also, the vehicle is not equipped with remote start. Overall, it's a standout vehicle at a great value.

Great performance and handling.

The best which I drove up to now. I will recommend everyone to buy a Cadenza. Kia had built a great product and has the best warranty.

Leasing a Cadenza

I like the looked of the Cadenza although the exterior could be a little more sleek. the interior is nearly perfect and great colors. The above ratings are tentative because I haven't driven it very much yet. It has a lot of features that are excellent.

I LOVE my new vehicle because it's so comfortable

We have a family of 5 and have no issues fitting the whole family in this over sized sedan. It is comfortable and very stylish and super reliable. We are very happy in our new car, plus the gas mileage is great compared to the mini van I previously owned.

Love this car

This car is way more than I expected. It drives like a dream and has all the features I would expect in a luxury vehicle. It?s roomy and sleek. The Kia Cadenza is by far the nicest car I test drove and I?m completely satisfied that I went with it. The more I drive it the more I love it.

Good looking car and comfortable

So far this is a great car. I've driven it over 1800 miles and on a long road trip. The seats are comfortable and interior is laid out nicely with large easy to read controls. I especially like the styling and luxurious look and feel of the car. It rides smoothly and you feel it's an upscale vehicle. I'd say it's more a luxury sedan than a sports sedan. I have the Technology model. Heated steering wheel is a great feature. Overall I like the ergonomics of Hyundai/Kia cars because for me the controls are easy to learn and operate.

big interier, handles like a smaller car

More interier and trunk space than larger cars I have owned. Easy to drive & park. May not impress anyone (it's a Kia?) until they drive or ride in it.
