We welcome drivers from Wilmington, West Chester, Dover, Newark DE, Elkton MD, and beyond to take a look below to get a quick overview of what it has to offer, sure to get you excited for more.

Elegant and Confident Exterior

The 2017 Kia Cadenza's sleek profile is defined by the philosophy of focusing on "the simplicity of a straight line," giving it a minimalistic elegance unlike anything else. The matching Z-shaped lighting signatures in the headlights and LED taillights give the Cadenza's appearance a front-to-back cohesiveness, sure to keep you in the spotlight at any time of day or night. Two available grilles offer different looks depending on your trim; lower trims get the "Diamond Butterfly" grille with a three-dimensional pattern, and higher trims get the "Intaglio" grille with verticle faceted blades. The 2017 Cadenza's length is the same as the outgoing model but, thanks to a wider and lower stance as well as a longer wheelbase and extended roofline, it boasts a more sporty appeal and increased legroom for rear passengers.

 

Exquisitely Comfortable Interior Space

• The cabin of the 2017 Cadenza has been redesigned with higher-quality materials than the outgoing model.
• A lowered and extended driver's seat provides a more stable and sporty feeling, while heating elements in the seats have been redesigned to distribute warmth more evenly.

The Driving Experience

• With a body composed of more than 50% Advanced High Strength Steel - more than two times that of the outgoing model - the new Cadenza boasts a more dynamic and engaging driving experience.
• Driver assistance features like Advanced Smart Cruise Control, Forward Collision Warning, Autonomous Emergency Braking, and more all make for a more safe and secure ride.
• Larger brake rotors allow for improved braking performance in any situation.

Harmonious and Modern Cockpit

 

• The new Head Up Display in the 2017 Cadenza shows key driver information on the fly, such as speed and navigation, directly on the windshield in front of the driver.
• The Surround View Monitor has been improved to offer a more clear and distinct "bird's eye view" around the vehicle, and the added reverse guidelines help make even the tightest spaces navigable.
• A smart trunk that opens when detecting the key fob, wireless smartphone charging, and the latest generation of the Kia UVO system with Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay™ and a 12-speaker 630-watt Harman/Kardon® audio system featuring Clari-Fi™ music restoration technology ensures you'll have all the convenience and entertainment you could ever need.
