The Cadenza isn't a Kia -- or so we've been told. When we explain to folks that this sharp, polished sedan comes from Kia, they don't believe us. They say, "That's not a Kia. That's too nice to be a Kia." Many people still aren't aware that Kia has taken the Robert Downey, Jr., road to recovery, going from downtrodden to desirable in no time at all. The automaker's current lineup is full of serious competitors that play in a wide range of vehicle classes, and Kia is keen to fight for even more territory by filling the hole in its lineup left by the Amanti's departure from the full-size sedan segment.
