The 2017 Kia Cadenza, a stylish full-size sedan, was completely redesigned for its second-generation debut. Known for its peppy performance from a 290-horsepower 3.3-liter V6, it channeled power to the front wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission. The upscale interior offered comfort and convenience highlighted by a 7-inch touchscreen interface (8-inch for the Limited trim) with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Available in three trims—Premium, Technology, and Limited—the Cadenza boasted notable safety features including forward collision warning and intervention, lane departure warning and intervention, and a surround-view parking camera system in the upper trims. The panoramic sunroof, Nappa leather, and adaptive cruise control further added to its luxury feel.
