Connecting to the new dynamic world

04/05 Design

Welcome to a balanced synthesis of power and purpose. The Cadenza sets itself apart with a confident stance emphasised by its dynamically-designed bumper, Kias signature radiator grille and multi-spoke alloy wheels.

06/07 Design

Broad, clean chrome mouldings add refinement, while combination rear lamps and dual exhaust outlets provide simple yet dramatic touches.

A long cabin proportion, dynamic side character lines and muscular wheel arches are just some of the design elements that make Cadenza a style leader.

But form is nothing without function. Every line of the Cadenza has been carefully thought out, every curve considered. Lowered ground clearance for lively performance, long wheelbase for added stability, shallow windscreen angle for superb aerodynamics. Everything makes perfect sense.

12/13 Dynamic

In the city, the Cadenza means business. Its a car with both style and the performance to back it up. From agile, nimble steering to precision-controlled handling, everything is geared to fit your driving needs day and night.

14/15 Life style

Your car should be an expression of your life. Confident and forward-thinking, embracing innovation while acknowledging the tried-and-tested. The Cadenza fulfils this role perfectly, with its innate characteristics effortlessly matching your own.

16/17 Interior

Supervision cluster with 3.5 colour TFT LCD: All the driving data you need, including a built-in trip computer, is delivered with clarity, enhanced visibility and a luxurious feel.

The elegant, advanced ergonomics of the Cadenzas dashboard merge seamlessly with the latest technology. All of it working in harmony through intuitively operated controls to provide a cohesive, stimulating and wholly enjoyable driving environment.

Centre fascia: Purposeful, progressive and futuristic, with logically arranged switches and a fully integrated audio system. Everything comes together as it should.

18/19 Interior

The ultimate interior entails two essentials: space and comfort. Both are given priority in the Cadenza, combining to provide luxury of the highest order.

Large overhead lighting console: Overhead lighting comprising LED map lamp, main interior light and LED room lamp give the cabin an understated aura of elegance.

20/21 Lighting

Remote keyless entry system: When the smart key unlock button is activated, the exterior lamps illuminate for 15 seconds, the interior lamps for 30 seconds. Puddle lamps: Welcome to the Cadenza. Puddle lamps on the underside of the rear view mirrors automatically light up when the car detects the smart key approaching. Outside door handle lights: LEDs located on the inside of the exterior door handles also light up to herald your arrival.

Interior lighting: Indirect lighting discreetly mounted on the chrome trim of the dashboard sets the mood.

Take in all the beauty of the skies. The all-glass panorama sunroof of the Cadenza lets light flood into the interior space. For the kind of openness found only in a convertible.

Panoramic sunroof: Made entirely of glass and occupying three quarters of the roof, Cadenzas automatic panoramic sunroof gives occupants a sense of freedom. Built-in safety features also prevent injuries to probing hands and fingers.

22/23 Audio

To follow the stars, you need a star performer. Youve found it with the Cadenza. Let the onboard navigation system, with its advanced technology and user-friendly features, guide you on your way.

As youd expect, the Cadenzas sound system provides an abundance of depth, detail and clarity that perfectly complements the cars upscale cabin ambience.

Infinity sound system: 12-channel Infinity premium sound system, with a choice of three audio settings. In-dash 6-CD changer: Its not just the sound quality thats superior, its the ease of operation too. Cadenzas 6-CD changer is stylishly integrated into the dashboard.

24/25 Dynamic

An expression of power, an expression of reliability. But most of all, an expression of enjoyment. This is what driving is for you. And out on the road, you need a complete car to make it all happen.

26/27 Dynamic

As the road bends away in front of you, you can relax knowing that state-ofthe-art technology brings superior stability into play.

Amplitude Selective Damper: Thanks to a separate piston structure that soaks up high frequency, low-amplitude shocks from the road surface, Amplitude Selective Damper (ASD) shock absorbers result in ultimate riding comfort.

28/29 Power

Performance with durability Cadenzas power comes courtesy of a new Lambda II 3.5 litre engine, providing improved powertrain performance. Durability is built in, an essential when driving in high temperature climates. Other advantages include reduced vibration, low noise when idling and accelerating, an eco oil filter that lowers maintenance costs, and reduced overall weight to enhance fuel economy.
Push button start/stop: Even before you start the engine, the sporty overtones are clear. Theres no need to turn a key, just push the button. Starting and stopping the ignition become an exercise in convenience.

Lambda II 3.5L gasoline engine: A fuel efficient, lightweight unit generating a maximum 290 ps at 6600 rpm. Composed of an aluminium cylinder block, Cadenzas powerful engine features dual continuously variable valve timing, a silent timing chain system to minimise noise, and a variable intake system to maximise efficiency.

1. Organ accelerator pedal: As befits a luxury sedan, the Cadenzas accelerator pedal is designed for maximum comfort by allowing your foot and ankle to move in the same trajectory as the pedal itself. 2. Electric Parking Brake (EPB): Activated via two computer-controlled motors attached to the brake calipers, the Electric Parking Brake prevents the car from rolling away when stationary. It automatically releases as soon as you depress the accelerator pedal. 3. 6-speed automatic transmission: Next generation Kia technology reduces the number of transmission parts, while lowered weight provides superior performance and fuel economy.

30/31 Safety

If safety is a matter of arming yourself, the Cadenza carries out the task admirably. A rigid, high-strength steel structure with reinforced side sills means energy is effectively absorbed and dispersed in the event of a collision. The Brake Assist System deploys in an emergency situation, sensing brake pedal speed and applying increased pressure to ensure a shorter braking distance. Airbags at the front and sides offer protection for both driver and passengers.
1. Front/rear, side and curtain airbags: Cadenza comes with a total of eight airbags for maximum occupant protection. An electronic sensing system monitors impact force as well as the presence of a front passenger and seat-belt use, and controls airbag inflation accordingly.

2. Electro-chromic mirror & rear view camera: While the rear view mirror senses headlight glare from cars behind and dims accordingly, a rear view camera ensures unobstructed all around vision. Increased size, increased performance: The size of the front brake caliper has been increased to secure optimum braking performance. Just one part of Cadenzas active safety features that puts your driving needs first. 3. Active headrests: Headrests move forwards and up within milliseconds of an impact, cushioning the head and helping to prevent whiplash injuries. 4. Front and rear parking assist system: Ultrasonic sensors integrated into the rear bumper warn of any obstacles when manoeuvring into a parking space.

32/33 Technology

1. Radiator grille: standard versions convey luxury and sophistication. Because a premium sedan leads from the front. 2. Chrome outside door handle: Dont just see the elegance, feel it too. Stylish door handles integrate beautifully with Cadenzas smart key technology. 3. Gull wing rear view mirrors: Outside mirrors fold up and back when the driver exits the car to provide a stylish touch, while an enhanced aerodynamic design results in less wind noise. 4. Safety power windows: Electric windows stop automatically when they sense an obstruction such as a childs hand for optimum reassurance. 5. Rear parking assist system: Sensors integrated into the rear bumper warn of any obstacles when parking. 6. UV cut windshield glass: Keeps the interior temperature cooler and improves air conditioning efficiency by blocking heat from the sun. 7.
