CADENZA

You set an exceptionally high standard for yourself. And you count on others to live up to your lofty expectations. You apply the same rigorous criteria to the vehicle you drive. Your unwavering pursuit of quality will find a worthy new ally in Cadenza. It’s nothing less than a new form of luxury, building on Kia’s exemplary foundation of leading-edge design, innovative technology and impeccable quality. Add to that the characteristics that define a truly elite luxury driving experience. Then see for yourself how that vision is fulfilled – in the 2016 Kia Cadenza. With its sleek, yet muscular design and cutting-edge technologies, Cadenza sets a new, higher standard among premium sedans – a fact that was underscored by J.D. Power and Associates when it named the 2014 Cadenza the “Highest Ranked Large Car in Initial Quality in the U.S.” 9 Set your sights higher than ever. Introduce yourself to Cadenza.

NOW’S THE TIME TO AIM EVEN HIGHER.

APPRECIATE THE FINE ART OF PERFORMANCE.

Extraordinary performance consists of more than precision engineering and the very latest in technology. It’s also a state of mind. One look at the Cadenza is sure to ignite a strong power of suggestion. Its angular contours and assured stance suggest a sophisticated level of performance; its advanced technologies deliver on the promise. At the heart is a 3.3 litre Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) V6 engine that generates 293 horsepower and is mated with a six-speed Sportmatic® transmission that allows you to choose between an automatic mode or sportier, clutch-free manual shifting with steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters. Complete the picture with such innovative driver assist systems as the available Advanced Smart Cruise Control1 and Blind-Spot Detection1. Ready to raise your game? Drive the game-changing form of premium performance. Cadenza.

THE FOCUS IS ON YOU.

In Cadenza, the objective is to give you the tools you need to retain a singular focus on driving. That’s facilitated by such standard features as a voice-command navigation3 system with Rear-Camera Display1 and a Back-Up Warning System.1 Once you’re on the road, another dimension of the driving experience is provided by the premium Infinity®4 by Harman surround-sound audio system that employs 12 speakers to create a rich audio soundstage. And with this form of performance, you’re not just the audience, you’re also the conductor.

InFInItY®4 AuDIO SYStEM A premium Infinity®4 by Harman surround-sound audio system delivers crystal clear and balanced concert-hall quality sound. The system features 12 precisely positioned speakers, including a subwoofer, centre channel speaker and external amplifier.

REARVIEW CAMERA DISPLAY1 When you shift into Reverse, the multimedia interface automatically displays a high-resolution image from the vehicle’s rearview camera.

PREMIuM AuDIO SYStEM IntEgRAtIOn

The multimedia interface is fully integrated with Cadenza’s premium 12-speaker Infinity®4 by Harman surround-sound audio system.

On-BOARD nAVIgAtIOn3 Cadenza’s standard onboard navigation system is also fully integrated with the multimedia interface. Call-up a destination, find a point of interest or type in an address on the touch screen and Cadenza will lead you there.

It isn’t only a matter of what you can control with Cadenza’s advanced multimedia interface, it’s how. You can use voice commands with the sophisticated speech recognition technology or the dynamic display and brilliant graphics of the touch screen. Both offer you precise control of onboard navigation and entertainment systems and functions. It’s a driver’s seat and command post in one. That’s Cadenza’s forward-thinking approach to luxury.

LUXURY AT YOUR COMMAND.

YOUR OWN PERSONAL SANCTUARY.

Spaciousness. Comfort. Plus a distinctly premium look and feel. Cadenza offers all the keystones of a luxurious personal sanctuary that is sure to satisfy even the most demanding drivers – like you. Settle into the first-class accommodations, with heated power-adjustable front seats that strike an ideal balance of comfort and support. Top-flight amenities enrich the experience with leather seat trim, chrome accents and sophisticated wood-grain style trim. Life is very good indeed inside Cadenza. Your sanctuary from the everyday.

1. DuAL-ZOnE AutOMAtIC tEMPERAtuRE COntROL The system allows the driver

and front passenger to adjust individual temperature settings to create their own climate zones. Rear-seat passengers can control airflow through a separate ventilation outlet.

2. HEAtED StEERIng WHEEL There’s nothing like an available heated steering wheel to take the sting out of cold Canadian winter mornings.

3. POWER REAR-WInDOW SunSHADE

Rear-seat passengers can

enjoy a cooler and more comfortable drive thanks to an available power rear-window sunshade.

4. POWER SEAt-CuSHIOn ExtEnSIOn

An available power-adjustable driver’s seat-cushion extension is a welcome luxury, providing extra support and allowing drivers to select their own custom comfort settings. An available memory system remembers two drivers’ preferences, recalling stored positions for the driver’s seat, outside mirrors and power-adjustable steering column.

FIND YOUR OWN COMFORT LEVEL.

Cadenza sets a very high standard of luxury. The question is, what level appeals to your individual tastes. Heated power-adjustable front seats with leather trim are standard. If you desire a step up to even more luxurious appointments, you can opt for the available premium Nappa leather seat trim, air-cooled front seats, a power-adjustable driver’s seat-cushion extension and a power rear-window sunshade. It’s a cut above the cut above.

PAnORAMIC SunROOF Brighten any drive with the available panoramic sunroof. It includes a power-retractable sunshade for enhanced convenience.

Cadenza is equipped with a series of advanced active safety systems that work together to help give you a proactive layer of defence. Think of it as defensive engineering – Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Traction Control System (TCS), Brake Assist System (BAS) and Vehicle Stability Management system (VSM) help you maintain control even in difficult conditions and in many emergency braking scenarios. Cadenza responds to potentially hazardous situations even before you do. Comforting thought – don’t you think?

A PROACTIVE APPROACH TO SAFETY.

VEHICLE StABILItY MAnAgEMEnt (VSM)

VSM is a safety feature that adds steering direction control capability. It intervenes when appropriate to help the driver regain control of the vehicle.

†No system, no matter how advanced, can compensate for all driver error and/or driving conditions. Always drive responsibly. CADENZA PREMIUM MODEL SHOWN. Some features may vary.

ELECtROnIC StABILItY COntROL (ESC)

ESC monitors your vehicle’s response during emergency manoeuvres. It can intervene by controlling the engine and brakes to help keep your Cadenza on course.

ELECtROnIC BRAkE-FORCE DIStRIButIOn (EBD)

To help maintain more consistent braking as vehicle loads and weight distribution change, EBD adjusts the front-to-rear balance of brake pressure.

tRACtIOn COntROL SYStEM (tCS)

When TCS senses wheel spin during acceleration, it uses engine power and brake force to adjust power to the wheels with the most traction.

HILL-StARt ASSISt COntROL (HAC) To help keep you from rolling backward when starting up a steep hill, HAC automatically holds the brake pressure for two seconds after you take your foot off the brake pedal. That gives you plenty of time to move your foot to the accelerator pedal.

BRAkE ASSISt SYStEM (BAS) If BAS detects emergency braking, based on how quickly you step on the brake pedal, it instantly applies full braking force, which helps shorten your overall stopping distance.

EIgHt ADVAnCED AIRBAgS5 Dual front airbags, full-length side curtain airbags and front and rear seat-mounted side airbags are managed by an advanced sensor system that can even respond in certain rollover situations.

AIRBAg & SEAtBELt SEnSORS This advanced system monitors the severity of certain impacts, the presence of a front passenger and seat-belt use, and then controls airbag inflation accordingly.

FROnt SEAt-BELt PREtEnSIOnERS

Pretensioners are designed to tighten the front seat belts in the event of certain collisions. This helps reduce the likelihood of injuries.

HIgH-StREngtH, tEnSILE StEEL-REInFORCED BODY

Cadenza’s body structure is reinforced with the extensive use of high-strength tensile steel. This material is lighter and stronger than traditional steel, helping protect passengers while reducing overall weight.

FROnt & REAR CRuMPLE ZOnES Front and rear crumple zones are specially engineered to help absorb and dissipate impact energy, helping to preserve the structural integrity of the entire passenger compartment in certain collisions.

REAR CHILD-SAFEtY DOOR LOCkS

Rear child-safety door locks help prevent the doors from being opened accidentally, which is important when small children are on board. When doors are in the locked position, they can only be opened from the outside.

Despite all of Cadenza’s comprehensive active safety technology, in certain situations, a collision may prove unavoidable. That’s when a series of passive safety systems are activated to help protect the driver and passengers alike. An advanced airbag system5 includes dual front, front and rear seat-mounted side, and full-length side-curtain airbags. In addition, the protective, high-strength, tensile steel-reinforced body helps absorb impact energy in a controlled manner. You can count on it. For added peace of mind.

PROTECTION. FOR SITUATIONS THAT CAN’T BE AVOIDED.

Starting with the 2015 model year, Natural Resources Canada in conjunction with the automotive manufacturers, have introduced a new testing procedure that will result in higher fuel consumption ratings that are more representative of everyday driving. Kia Canada is one of the first automotive manufacturers to implement the new testing practice and would like to ensure you fully understand the difference. The new procedure incorporates 3 additional test cycles that account for air conditioner usage, cold temperature operation, and higher speeds with more rapid acceleration and braking.To learn more, please visit: http://oee.nrcan.gc.ca/fcr-rcf/public/index-e.cfm
