2011 Kia Cadenza: Live Photo Galore from South Korean Presentation
The Hyundai - Kia Group may be constantly surprising us with their new products, but the firm's domestic team has still a lot of learning to do when it comes to how they promote their work to the global press and consumers alike. Even though Kia was content with the release of a single photo (plus a few more leaked official shots) of its new Cadenza sedan to the foreign automotive media, understandably, most people want to see more of the Amanti / Opirus replacement.Well, thanks to South Korean dedicated Kia websites such as the K7club, Club-VG and VGClub, we now get that chance. These live pictures seem to have been shot at what appears to be a special presentation of the Cadenza somewhere in South Korea.
Aside from the detailed shots, for the first time we see the styling of the sedan's rear-end which is almost identical to the KND-5 Concept car that made its debut at the Seoul Show this past April
We remind you that Kia's new flagship saloon which is named K7 in its home market)will go on sale in South Korea towards the end of 2009 and the rest of the world in 2010.
Kia has not released any technical details on its sedan that is similar in size to the Audi A6, but it is believed that the front-wheel drive model will be available with either a 2.4-liter four cylinder or a V6 engine, and quite possibly in some markets, a four-cylinder diesel also.
