The all-new 2017 Kia Cadenza boasts precisely crafted cabin, cutting edge technology for connectivity and driver assistance, a stronger body structure, and powertrain enhancements for a more premium experience behind the wheel.

Head on, the Cadenza is more expressive thanks to the newly designed front fascia. While the signature Kia "tiger nose" grille is still an unmistakable design trait, it has evolved into a new hexagonal shape that emphasizes the Cadenza's visual width with lines extending underneath the headlights.

While the Cadenza has the same overall length as the outgoing model, it's slightly wider and lower in height. The wheelbase has been stretched slightly, contributing to nearly a half-inch of increased legroom for rear passengers.

Kia designers visually widened the 2017 Cadenza's interior space with a wraparound dashboard that flows into the door panels and features real stitching. The door panels themselves have been adorned with higher quality soft-touch materials, while soft leather envelopes the Cadenza's cabin space.

The cockpit is designed to provide a more harmonious human-machine interface with ergonomically intelligent design, intuitive controls, and a suite of enhanced convenience features making the driving experience enjoyable and effortless. Kia's UVO system featuring Android Auto4 and Apple CarPlay5 are standard, while a 12-speaker Harman/Kardon system featuring Clari-Fi music restoration technology is an option.

A revised version of Kia's 3.3-liter V6 engine has been retuned for improved fuel economy. With an estimated 290 horsepower on tap, the engine sends power to the front wheels via Kia's first FWD-based eight-speed automatic transmission. The transmission is highly efficient, providing quick and crisp shifts for a more enjoyable driving experience that will set it apart from its competitors.
