Kia unveiled its new K7 at the 2015 New York Motor Show as a 2017 model-year large sedan that demanded attention. Known traditionally for affordable and reliable cars, Kia surprised many skeptics with the K7, proving it could compete in the luxury segment. The brand’s evolution was built on pillars of innovative design and strong reliability, with performance becoming a growing focus. The K7, also known as the Cadenza in some markets, changed perceptions with its refined presence and advanced features.
Sporting aggressive styling and the signature Peter Schreyer “tiger-nose” grille, the second generation Cadenza showcased narrow headlights and a rising beltline that lent it a sporty yet elegant silhouette. Standard 18” light-alloy wheels enhanced its stance, while optional 19” wheels offered an even more dynamic look.
Inside, the K7 kept pace with competitors by offering modern technology including an infotainment system compatible with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The spacious cabin featured high-quality materials, and the instrument cluster combined classic analog dials with a crisp LCD display for easy readability.
Under the hood, the K7 housed a 3.3-liter V6 engine paired with Kia’s in-house developed 8-speed automatic transmission, delivering smooth and confident performance.
