Kia reveals name of all-new luxury sedan

(Seoul) October 18, 2009– Kia Motors Corporation has unveiled the first official picture and export market name of the production version of its KND-5 concept car – an all-new sedan designed to satisfy drivers’ desire for refinement, safety and emotional satisfaction by creating ‘ideal’ driving conditions.

The stylish luxury sedan, which is to be called ‘Cadenza’ in markets outside of Korea, will make its overseas premiere at the Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Dubai international motor shows, towards the end of the year.
The Cadenza name is derived from an Italian musical term used to describe an elaborate, ornamental flourish for a concerto or aria. It perfectly symbolizes the dynamic sedan’s striking design philosophy and upscale image.

Sporty and sleek in appearance, Cadenza features a bold headlamp design with attention-grabbing LED surrounds and a purposeful, athletic character line. The prominent front grille and stylish taillights emphasize the car’s high-tech feel and are a continuing expression of Kia's dramatic design DNA.

On the inside, there is a futuristic ‘floating’ dashboard that highlights Kia’s uniquely innovative design approach. The welcome system turns on the exterior puddle and interior lights to ‘greet’ the car owner, while the interior mood lighting strip, which runs along the dashboard to the door trim, creates a warm atmosphere within the vehicle.

Kia Cadenza’s dynamic design and driving performance, allied with a raft of competitive passenger-friendly high-tech features, will make it a leader in the large, luxury sedan market segment. Available new technologies will include a heated steering wheel (for winter driving in cold markets), powered extendable seat cushions (for extra thigh support), automatic defogging of the windshield and ventilated front seats (for cool comfort in hot markets).

Soon-Nam Lee, Director of the Overseas Marketing Group, Kia Motors Corporation, said, “New Cadenza will showcase the continuing evolution in Kia’s striking design language through the harmonious blend of light and lines. It will also present a new concept in luxury sedans in terms of performance and technology.”

Mais bonito do que alguns concorrentes, só prova o facto de que a Kia e a Hyundai têm-se esmerand bastante com os seus lançamentos nos últimos anos.

Só o nome, Cadenza, parece bizarro para um carro deste tamanho/segmento.
 
Acho esta grelha um bocado manhosa. Talvez com o símbolo da Kia inserido na grelha ficasse com melhor aspecto.

De resto, parece estar muito interessante. Mostra que a Kia tem evoluído muito bem apr:)
 
Também gostei. Tem a grelha semelhante ao modelo Soul. Não é tão giro como o novo Mazda 6 ou com o Lexus is220 mas também tem o seu encanto.

A kia desde que conseguiu o ex-desenhador da audi está com carros muitissimos mais europeus e bonitos, por exemplo o ceedScoupé o modelo anterior faz imenso lembrar o Audi A3 [;)]
 
Início de comercialização na Coreia a 24 de Novembro.

Continuo sem entender muito bem em que segmento vai concorrer este Cadenza. Pelo tamanho parece o sucessor do Opirus/Amanti e não do Magentis/Optima.
 
A KIA tem surpreendido nos últimos anos. apr:)

A continuar a evoluir a este ritmo, brevemente atinge/ultrapassa os generalistas Europeus...
