Instant Classic? Possibly

Can a car that has only been on the market a handful of years be considered a classic?  I say yes.  Even classics are continually retooled and tweaked as new technology becomes available. Which leads us to our most stylish of classics, the Kia Optima.

Ok, classic may be a strong word but I promise you this Kia Optima will stand the test of time.  The Optima has won in all of my “it” categories.  It is affordable, comfortable, safe, great fuel economy and reliability. The road noise is a thing of the past and the feel for the steering makes you feel dominant behind the wheel.  It is a more hushed drive than ever before.  The material inside is exquisite and it has oodles of room to spare.  The heated seats, 12-volt and usb ports as well as side sunshades will accommodate your outboard passengers.

The SX has panoramic glass roof, heated steering wheel, heated and vented front seats and an ipad like interface.  Optional are auto emergency brake, adaptive cruise control and surround view camera system.  The XS also gets the most powerful 2 liter turbo with 245 hp and 260 pounds-feet of torque with regular grade gas.  It is coupled with a 6 speed automatic front wheel drive.  There is no turbo lag or torque steer here.  Fuel economy is impressive at 24/35 city/highway respectively.

Be Amazed By Cadenza at Round Rock Kia

Impossible to Ignore

The Kia Cadenza is Kia’s newest big slugger in their line-up of all-star vehicles and despite a smooth, quiet ride, it has been making a lot of noise in the automotive industry.

Everything about the Cadenza feels carefully crafted to impress, its luxurious tidings that come without the luxury price tag earns it a place on the list of anyone shopping for a full-size sedan.

Recently, Consumer Reports published their rankings of full-size sedans for the first time since 2007 and back then the Avalon topped the list.  The full-size Toyota has long served as the benchmark for large sedans, but this year it came up short compared to the Cadenza, according to the experts at Consumer Reports.

Cadenza also edged out the similar Hyundai Azera in the ratings.  Consumer Reports stated that the ride of Cadenza was much smoother and overall the Cadenza was exciting, and the Azera was not.

Consumer Reports isn’t the only publication praising, MotorTrend ranked Cadenza as the best full-size sedan in the Big Test and it has received glowing reviews from publications like Car and Driver and others.

If you would like to see and learn more about the Cadenza, there’s no better place than at Round Rock’s newly opened Kia dealer.  Visit Round Rock Kia at 600 Jeffrey Way in Round Rock, Texas or call 512-617-5000 today!
