2020 Cadenza Exterior

The Cadenza's exterior redesign is quite aggressive, especially from the front. The lower end of the front fascia is now one large air intake, and above that is one of the biggest, most imposing grilles this side of a BMW 7 Series. This new grille is flanked by slimmer headlights angled downward. LED headlights, daytime running lights, and rear lights are now standard across the range. To spruce up the bland rear-end of the old model, Kia incorporated combined rear lights. 18-inch wheels are standard on the base model, while the Limited trim gets a set of 19s.

Dimensions

The Cadenza is a large car with an impressive set of dimensions. The overall length is 196.7 inches, housing a 112.4-inch wheelbase. It's 73.6 inches wide and 57.9 inches tall. While these dimensions are impressive, they're not class-leading. A similarly priced Chrysler 300 is much larger, while a Chevrolet Impala is more-or-less the same size. Technology and Limited trims of the Cadenza both weigh 3,770 pounds.

Exterior Colors

The color palette is disappointing. Since Kia did so much to the car's exterior, we expected to see more exciting color options. Alas, both models are only available in four no-cost options, with Gravity Blue being as wild as it gets. Other choices include Snow White Pearl, Aurora Black Pearl, and Graphite Gray.
