Detroit Auto Show: 2014 Kia Cadenza


Kia has unveiled the 2014 Kia Cadenza at the Detroit motor show. It was designed under the watch of Kia president and design chief Peter Schreyer. It features Kia's so-called "tiger-nose" front fascia, LED lights and chrome bezeling in the back.

Power comes from a 293-horsepower, 3.3-liter V-6 engine that features direct-injection technology for improved performance. The engine drives the front wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission that incorporates shift paddles on the steering wheel for driver-initiated gear changes.

Inside, there's a whole host of nice leather surrounded by wood and chrome accents, with a driver-focused cockpit (sort of like the Optima) with a seven-inch TFT color touchscreen display. Premium options include things like Nappa leather seats, a panoramic sunroof, Kia's UVO infotainment system, HID headlamps with active lighting, heated seats and a heated steering wheel. Sounds comfy.
