Kia decided to slightly rejuvenate its second largest sedan Cadenza (also K7 in Korea) . You don't know him? It's not too surprising. The most luxurious Kia offered in the Czech Republic is the Optima sedan and the Sorento SUV. However, they know K7/Cadenza overseas or in Asia!
And it is for these countries that Kia has prepared the aforementioned modernization . What does it bring? The front grille, both bumpers and the shape of the rear lights have undergone the most significant changes. A sharp eye will also surely notice the new composition of the front headlights, the modified hood and the air intakes on the sides of the body.
The interior gets a new 8-inch screen with touch control and navigation including SiriusXM Traffic and UVO eServices . The seats will get new leather upholstery, the dual air conditioning system will also let air to the rear passengers, thanks to the Smart Key system you can get into the car without a key and finally – the driver's seat will be adjustable in ten positions.
Under the hood, there is a place for a 3.5 V6 engine with a capacity of 294 hp, as well as a 3.0 six-cylinder (270 hp) and a 2.4 four-cylinder (201 hp). We will have to wait for the time being if it eventually gets to other units already offered in the past. A 6-speed manual sends power to the front wheels as standard, and a 6-speed automatic will also be available on request. For the USA, the only option is an automatic machine in cooperation with the strongest unit.
Whether the Cadenza (or the K7) will appear elsewhere than in America and Asia is not yet certain. However, 99% cannot be counted on for imports into the Czech Republic, due to the low demand for models of this category that do not have the BMW, Audi or Mercedes logo on them…
