2014 KIA Cadenza First Drive Review

The 2014 KIA Cadenza is new near luxury sedan that could have been built in German a few years ago.

It is no secret that KIA head designer, Peter Schreyer, used to design Audi’s.  You can’t help but see the connection in any new KIA model.

But perhaps the new 2014 KIA Cadenza is the best example of Schreyer’s influence on the Korean brand.

The new 2014 KIA Cadenza looks like it could have been designed in Germany…and that’s because it was.

While Schreyer may design KIAs he still works out of Germany given his cars a very Germanic flavor.

In this first drive video review, Nathan goes to San Diego to test and review the news KIA.
