It’s official – no matter whether you’ve been calling it the Kia VG or the Kia KND-5 Concept, you’ll now have a new and official to refer to it by – the Kia Cadenza. But Kia noted that the name Cadenza would be one used outside of Korea. In Korea it might be called the K7.
The name Cadenza was derived from an Italian musical term used to describe an elaborate, ornamental flourish for a concerto or aria. In line with its upmarket sedan status, there will be a number of creature comforts introduced in the Cadenza that are not common in a Kia – heated steering wheel, powered extendable seat cushions (for thigh support), windshield automatic defogging, and ventilated front seats.
The Kia Cadenza production car will make public debuts at the Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Dubai international motorshows towards the end of 2009. Look after the jump for an initial set of 4 hi-res images released officially by Kia.

WAY TO GO Hyundai – Kia.
Driving innovation every day…………….
To all korean car manufacturers – make sure that stability control is standard on all vehicles – ESP/VSC/VDC – if not the cars will loose out on most car crash testing ratings

Korean cars much much better than ours, still waiting for perdana replacement model..
Just look like Camry… Anyway, good job Kia!
another interesting car after the coupe
Paul, any idea when Naza is launching the other Kia, that is Kia Sorento? It's already coming to year end.
Will this car will have malaysia TAN?
Agree with x-baa. Perdana was a mitsubishi galant launched around the same time as reebok pump shoes, for those who are old enough to remember. Anyway, like any true blooded third world country, Malaiseians are going to pay $$$$$ for safety and innovation. Most cars in developed countries (and please, Korea is a developed country) now come with 4 + airbags, vehicle stability control and ESP as standard…. but in malaysia, i think only those people driving high end luxury cars can "enjoy" these as standard equipment.
Video not found. Something wrong there?
bash!
This car is INCREDIBLE. This is coming from a 40 year old man, whose Father is a Ford Certified Technician. All I have known my whole life is FORD, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles.
I am here to say that I am CONVERTING cause KIA has shown to be innovating in the cars they are now designing. Packing of vehicles with equipment that you find on high end luxury brands, Power Train Warranty.
It sickens me to see some of the NEGATIVE COMMENTS of this particular design. This car is flawless and beautiful. This car is why I am NOT going to buy a Lincoln MKS or another Ford ever again. The only slight negative to this car is that it does not match the MKS in every interior and exterior dimensinon but it does slap down the Lincoln MKS by costing $14,000 less and offering the same equipment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it looks like an audi a4 and q7 in the back. i gotta admit even though i m korean my self. but all in all, it was a big step from the fugly amanti
The car demo and the picture abit different if u notice the front bottom light.. the video demo one more nice than the pic…
