Whether you cross-shop the Kia Cadenza (also known as the Kia K7 in some markets) with a Toyota Avalon or a Lexus ES, the Cadenza no longer comes across as the "less expensive" option. The previous generation's claim to fame was delivering 95% of the experience for 75% of the price. This Cadenza on the other hand is actually better equipped than the Lexus ES in some ways. How is that possible? We cover the gives and takes in this in-depth review.

You mean Hyundai - they bought Kia over 10 years ago because they could not complete in quality or anything else.

@AAutoBuyersGuide 7 жыл бұрын

Kia and Hyundai aren't the same company, it's way more complicated than that which is why the brands aren't measured together in quality studies. There was a forced/enticed merger by the Korean government but Hyundai quickly dropped their ownership share to below 40%. The companies share a board of directors and co-own companies that develop parts and supplies but the relationship isn't a simple ownership deal.

@Buc_Stops_Here 7 жыл бұрын

I had no idea the ownership dropped to 40%, thank you for correcting me.

@Buc_Stops_Here 7 жыл бұрын

I also checked what you wrote - it is really really strange. "On the flipside of the equation, the final product decisions for both brands are made by a joint Hyundai-Kia board that meets regularly through the year. And some very similar products - such as the Hyundai Sante Fe and Kia Sorrento - are even produced in the exact same factories." So you are right, they are separate, but the article I looked at states that essentially with the same suppliers and same parts, a lot of their cars are very very similar. "Kia Motors America operates as a completely separate sales, marketing and distribution organization in the United States." However engineering staffs are shared.

@AAutoBuyersGuide 7 жыл бұрын

That is correct but again it's very oddly organised. Not all engineering is shared, engineering related to suspensions, crash safety, drivetrains and emissions is shared in a very strange structure that is essentially a separate company that is co-owned. The joint board meetings are theoretically to make sure that the products are different enough to not step on toes. Hyundai and Kia factories are owned separately however each company is free to contract with the other for production needs, that's not unusual in the car world because Mercedes for instance contracts with Nissan to produce Mercedes designed engines in a Nissan factory. (just as one example. )

Great review, Alex! I cannot wait until I can review a Cadenza soon, too! The Kia Cadenza seems like a pretty attractive looking offering in its class! Also, it seems to offer a lot of car for your money! You definitely won't find yourself in a parking lot next to 3 Cadenza's, like if you where to go for another entry! You will definitely feel like you stand outside of the crowd with the Cadenza, since many people don't have it! The side profile of the Cadenza isn't my favorite angle to look at it from, but the front and rear ends look amazing! Also, the interior looks very upscale!

Also, I think the EPA screwed up on the gas mileage, for the better, I think I'm getting at least 2 mpg better than the 28 mpg it's rated for and when I checked fuely.com, a few other Cadenza owners even had 33 mpg.

I notice in your review of the 2017 Buick LaCrosse a few months prior to this one, you listed the 2017 Kia Cadenza as your top pick and the LaCrosse as your 2nd. Here you have the Chrysler 300 as your 2nd pick??? What changed???!?!?! Either way, I do thank you for this review and it's detail. I never knew about the Kia Cadenza until you talked about it while I was researching the 2017 (and newer) Buick LaCrosse The LaCrosse is my pick for next car, due to styling (inside and out), Infotainment, and driver comfort. The Kia Cadenza is a close 2nd for me in this large sedan, almost luxury segment.

Everyone has their own opinion on what Americans make and what other countries make. I own a GM car with over 150,000 thousand and approaching 11 years old and it runs fine. My mechanic tells me it will last me over 200,000 without any major issues - he has over 20 other customers with over 200,000 now and a few over 300,000 now. They all have the original engine and transmission. Those of you who claim American cars are crap are living in the dark ages (e.g. the 1980s through the early 2000s). They had to improve their quality or they would all go out of business. I hope you own these Korean cars that last just as long - many do, some don't.

Alex, I really like your reviews. I do have a question on the Cadenza review. In your LaCrosse review you have the Cadenza slightly ahead of the LaCrosse. But in the Cadenza review you put the Chrysler 300 just behind the Cadenza and ahead of the LaCrosse. Why the change. To me the LaCrosse is much better than the 300 in V6 form.

@AAutoBuyersGuide 7 жыл бұрын

Where the LaCrosse and 300 meet is tricky. They are both very competent but the 300 does have a slight edge when it comes to it's balance on the road. The 8-speed in the LaCrosse we had shifted awkwardly from time to time which was bothersome. On the flip side it's fresher than the 300 and has s bit more usable room inside. I'd say it sort of depends on which version you're looking for. I think I would take the top end 300 V8 over any version of the LaCrosse, but I could also see choosing a lower end trim LaCrosse over the 300 depending on your needs and preferences.

@shethjones4494 7 жыл бұрын

Although the 300 was updates a few years ago it is the oldest car in this segment. Lacrosse is lighter, faster and more efficient in V6 form and has tech the 300 lacks. Not to mention better visibility. It would be hard to choose 300 over current Lacrosse except if you are going for lowest price out the door.

I grew up with the cheap KIA's of the late 90's and I will probably never own one just because it will always be a cheap brand to my eyes. The younger generations, I expect, will not have that problem as they have only been exposed to the newer models and brand trust is already high with them. KIA just needs to ignore baby boomers and focus on millennials as they build brand loyalty. Eventually millennials will make more money and thats when KIA will really stick it up to the Germans.
