I'm along time Kia fan and this car does everything to keep me firmly in the fan club. I like the shark fin.
Thanks Bill for enjoying the Kia Cadenza review and the Shark fin. ^^
When the car is all worn out you will be able to make shark fin soup. 😀
@@abz124816 nice dad joke
Broke my shark fin on my ‘15 cadenza. It’s like $160 to replace so I’m currently raw-doggin it lol
I wish KIA brings this Cadenza to the USA. this vehicle is so beautiful. I will trade in my 2016 hyundai sonata limited with 19000 miles for it.
Yes, hope you guys get this new Kia Cadenza in US. I think you guys will love it.
This K8 sedan is not going to sell well in the US for many reasons. Otherwise, Hyundai would have kept their Azera in the US market.
I read online that it wont come to the US markets :( i really wanted one
@@Zerospawnn there is one where I live and I’m in the United States
The way your driving test shows the car works. Love it.
Thanks Toby. & Thanks for enjoying the Kia Cadenza review.
7:38 Charlie drivin like a bankrobber running for his life
LOL. Thanks for enjoying the Kia Cadenza review.
Love your review style. Thanks for the great quality. Hyundai & Kia are really pumping out nice vehicles in 2021! Can't wait to see these on the roads. Their game is keeping other manufactures on their toes for sure.
Thank you Nigel for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
Kia now come with some good alternative of german luxury, hope this will come to india as well.
Yes, hope you guys get the new Kia Cadenza soon in India.
@@AsianPetrolhead no sedans dont do well in india so kia qont bring this to india
I agree. I love German cars but Kia is killing it lately. Would definitely consider this over a luxury brand car
Yes way nicer then the Buick , Avalon and the Infiniti
Thank you Pixel KING for enjoying the Kia Cadenza review.
Exactly although the Avalon is reliable
@@yes8032 I hope the k8 is reliable too
@@yes8032 some years of Hyundai and kia are as reliable as Toyota although I will say dam near every Toyota car period is reliable even the hybrids. Early 2000 Hyundais are definitely bulletproof idk what's going on with that theta 2 engine tho.
I think with this sharp looking new design and the addition of the option for AWD Kia would have seen increased sales in the US if they'd kept it here.
And with the Chevy Impala, Buick Lacrosse and Ford Taurus also now gone from the market there'd have been less competition
Yes, Neo Gee. I think you guys will love this Kia Cadenza in US. Thanks!
@@AsianPetrolhead too bad we are not getting it since they just killed the previous gen Cadenza and K900 😒
The Avalon can’t hold a candle to this car. The new logo looks great on this car. This is a luxury car no matter the badge. Over 40 mpg highway? Is there any other six cylinder car that gets that mpg?
Yes, i was surprised Steve. This all new Kia Cadenza returned 18km/l on the highway. I was like WTF.
@@AsianPetrolhead I had to playback that part of the video…Thoughts I heard wrong. The car is beautiful and unfortunately everyone wants SUV’s and the Cadenza nor the K900 ever sold well here in the US. of all the non-luxury brands, KIA makes the closets thing to them. They really need to determine their brand identity. You can’t sell a Rio and the K900 under the same brand.
@@stevewise1656 Best plan is to spin off their own luxury arm like Hyundai, although it requires huge investments and high dedication but it's worth it if it helps elevate Kia brand as a whole I think ...
This is even better than their “luxury” brand Lexus… what Lexus has ventilated seats in the back with beautiful ambient lighting and smooth sequential turn signals… their sequential turn signal looks after market and super slow animation. Kia does everything right and is far more luxurious
@@Dkdid9183 Yeah as much as I *love* Lexus' designs and think their cars are great, I must agree that Kia definitely competes with them despite not being dedicated to luxury...idk if they beat them cus I didn't do enough research but I wouldn't be surprised if they did, I mean Kia's are destroying cars in both luxury and performance these days
To be honest, I haven't been able to give a high score in design for Korean cars until now. Even as a Korean, there were a lot of things that Hyundai and Kia lacked too much. However, the models recently released by Hyundai and Kia Motors are excellent in design. It is attractive. You can feel the quality of a first-class car.
Yeah, young-gil. Hyundai and Kia is on a roll. Thanks for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
Wow I’m really impressed how much the logo change matured the look on their cars
Yes, i am getting used to the new Kia Logo. Thank you for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
Ford should take notes
Ever since I bought my 2021 Sorento SX I’ve been looking forward to the future KIA is beginning with these new elegantly designed vehicles.
Man they’ve really really stepped up their game and are giving their customers what they want as well as putting up stiff competition with the other manufacturers in this price range!
Yes, this new Kia Cadenza is really a big leap.
At 2:50, the lights on the KIA CAdenza just caught my eyes, amazing what KIA has been doing. Easily becoming a favorite of a lot.
Yes, this Kia Cadenza has lots of bells & whistles. Thanks OtoWAtch
Now that's a beautiful looking car, inside and out!!!!
Thank you Sock Monkey for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
I watch your kia and hyjundai videos many times and love the drives too. I'm happy to have the company compete with the more expensive plane boring over priced germans!
Stay safe now!
And many thank yous
Thanks billy. And this new Kia Cadenza looks and drives nicely.
You made me smile so big!! Thanks Charlie!!! Excellent review!!!
Thank you Stewart for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
I'm a big fan of Kia cars and proud owner of Kia Optima...Cadenza is simply superb and planning to upgrade from Optima to Cadenza
Yes, i really think this 2022 Kia Cadenza made a big leap.
My wife loved her Cadenza, but it was stolen (and totaled). We got her a Lexus from the same year model as her Cadenza and she is not happy with the Lexus, she said she feels like she went backwards....Cadenza is underrated.
My day's are made when I see a new video posted to the channel
Thank you Tim for your support and enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
Great job sir in your presentation I concur with you Kia will be number one soon dominating all car manufacturers great job Kia keep up the good work
Great job Kia keep up the good work
Thank you for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
Why doesn’t the G80 have ventilated seats on the back but this does? Also, I really wish this would come to the US. One the best cars Kia has made…
There are air vents on the Genesis G80 for the 2nd row passengers. And yes, hope you guys get this all new Kia Cadenza soon in N. America. Thanks Juan.
Only gonna happen if Genesis gets more established, and Korean cars gets more consumer satisfactions, in North America.
The market is too niche for this car in US. Although if possible would be nice if Kia import limited units for North American market I think ...
@@obidean3964 Not possible (or extremely unlikely) before K8 gets another generation.
And this car looks better than the genesis as well
Now that is some real handling review 👌🏻👌🏻just AWESOME
Thank you Hussein for enjoying the 2022 Kia Sportage review.
Your reviews are awesome, especially the way you drive those cars. Keep up the good work
Thank you McCray for enjoying the 2022 Kia Cadenza review.
Wow! Love this brank. Every Korean car is so high tech.
Yes, this all new Kia Cadenza looks quite promising.
Love the self park and those new turning signals.
Yes, this new Kia Cadenza design is all about diamonds. Thanks.
I did not know it self parks?
First video Ive watched of this guy's. I'm subscribing just to see him test drive the shit out of these cars.
Thank you Coaster Squad for subscribing. It means so much to us. And we will keep it rolling!
This car is a worthy competitor to the Lexus ES. I really hope they introduce it to the U.S market. I would get the AWD version.
Wow, Lexus ES. Thanks for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
In white she looks GORGEOUS with that grill, like a bride in a wedding dress!
I think this new Kia Cadenza looks too White with white LOL. Thanks
oh, I have always loved this vehicle. so much value for the Price. it is a shame America won't get this any longer. Great review of a very premium sharp vehicle Charlie .
Yes, this new Kia Cadenza even got better. Thanks unjaded2
Korean cars are full of technology , comfort , smart and cheap ones that why i like them .. keep up guys 🇮🇶🤚
I loved it really impressed with how mature she is
Yes, this new Kia Cadenza looks great.
I'm a Big Fan of Kia ❤️
Love from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
Asian Petrolhead, nice to see you “hanging around” 😁
Than you Victory for enjoying the 2022 Kia Cadenza review!
Please Kia US bring back the Cadenza and K900 to our market; moreover rebadged them as K8 and K9 like what you did with the K5. This two models of yours are definitely a bargain for its offerings. I always prefer Kia than Hyundai/Genesis cause it’s more aggressive looking and beem a fan of the tiger nose grill. Great review as always!👌
Nice car
And my Brother has cadenza 2018 it is very good and with the new generation it is become more Beautiful
I watch you from Saudi Arabia
Yes, Kia is working hard lately. Thank you 3 for enjoying the Kia EV6 1st look!
I sure hope this K8 makes it to N. America🤞🏽✨
Yes, hope you guys get this new Kia Cadenza again in US.
The front end looks gorgeous; new logo is fresh and stylish, far from the low-cost looking old one! Nice review :3
Yes, this new Kia Cadenza looks gorgeous inside and out. Thanks Maria.
Obviously, I cannot tell how this new gorgeous sedan rides, but I know that the Avalon does the ride quality part very well. In fact, nothing in its class takes me hundreds of miles without very little fatigue.
Being middle age and all, I would take the K8 if it rides close enough to the Avalon.
The K8 has got it all.
Appreciate your timely reports Charlie.
Hi Jaffar. I think this new Kia Cadenza rides as much or even better than Toyota Avaon. Thanks.
No market in US for this K8. Sedans aren’t in and the Cadenza sold roughly 50,000 units from 2014-2021. I owned the last model and it was a good car. Too bad this model wasn’t available in AWD with the 3.5 motor in 2017.
Sad that number of sales of sedan is so low. But i think you guys will love this all new Kia Cadenza in N. America. Thanks lvan.
@@AsianPetrolhead thanks Charlie. Oh and great job with the review. If Kia brought it to the US as equipped with AWD, it would be a Audi A6 and Genesis G80 competitor.
I think the sharks fin garnish gives the car a more creative look and a bit of an upscale look and a tad bit of a character 🥰
Well, i think it could look more clean without it, too. Thanks for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
Kia pls produce this cadenza V6 with twin turbos, that would be a wicked competitor for bmw 5 series
😂 He be driving the sh*t out of these cars. 😂 that poor Kia giving everything it’s got
LOL. Well, this new Kia Cadenza took it quite nicely. Thanks.
I was waiting for this 😍
Thank you Hamed for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
MY 2018 Mazda 6 sedan 2.5 liter engine has a huge 310 lb.-ft. of low end torque with 31 miles per gallon on daily commute.
Nice! & Thank you for enjoying the all new Kia Cadenza review.
Love the new logo and more cars need to rock the frameless grille!
Fake mufflers are probably to prevent soot-staining of the back, stylistic, fake ports, I believe GM does something similar to this but don’t call me on it...!
Yes, getting used to the new logo and this new Kia Cadenza looks great. Thanks.
Always at the top at hyundai motor group, you don't need to ask yourself the question, this masterpiece is of course better than most of the competitors !!!!!
Thank you for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
I’m very interested in watching as this hits the U.S. market!
yes, hope you guys get this new Kia Cadenza in US, soon. Thanks Ben.
Great review, you just got yourself a new subscriber.
Wish this was available in Australia
Thank you Lazzie Bardakos. It means a lot to us. And hope you guys get this new Kia Cadenza. I am sure you guys will love this sedan!
Let’s hope we get this in the US😍😍
Yes, hope you guys get this new Kia Cadenza soon in N. America. Thanks.
I think it can definitely hold up against audi a5 sportback! But it would have been a genious move if they would have made the trunk the same as the audi, so the whole back opens, including the rear window, it is so much more interesting because you can load more and bigger things. Anyways I think I’m in love! Hope it will be available in europe!
Yes, hope you guys get the new Kia Cadenza soon in Europe. Thanks Kelly 81.
Love your videos brother! Keep up the good work.
Kia K8, one of my favourite Korean Sedan after Grandeur. 3.5 V6 L... Sounds good for running. Still wait for AWD one...
Yes, this new Kia Cadenza is a great new sedan!
Awesome episode ! ❤ from Australia ❤❤❤
I think this will beat the luxury cars! Crush them kia!
Yes, hope Kia will introduce this all new Kia Cadenza in N. America. Thanks Jaden.
Sweet grill!
Glad you like the Kia Cadenza review.
Nice video Charlie! But maybe we can't call this "Cadenza". The K7 was the Cadenza and that's been cancelled for other markets. The K8 won't be sold in North America and is an all new model.
Yes, maybe they are going to call this Kia K8 even in N. America. Thank you for enjoying the Kia Cadenza review.
@@AsianPetrolhead Perhaps. But I don't think they're getting this in North America. Too bad. Such a great car!
I love you channel you are awesome you deserve more subscribers i also bought a kia seltos thanks to you
Congratulations on your new Seltos. She lovely, isn't she. And thank you for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
From the first model of cadenza i just simple love it in every way and some day i will buy it
Glad you love Kia Cadenza.
I was going to take a shot every time he said “Kia Cadenza”, but I quickly realized I’d have blacked out half way through.
LOL. Thanks for enjoying our Kia Cadenza review. There you go one more for my friend. LOL.
@@AsianPetrolhead I appreciate the response!
I can't wait to see your Avante/Elantra N review. I am torn between the Veloster, Kona, and Avante/Elantra N models.
Torn between Veloster and Avante/Elantra because Avante/Elantra has more room but no fold down seat, which I will need when I do photoshoots. Unless the backseat proves big enough for my strobe light C-stands. I don't want look "boy -racer" as I just turned 41.
Also, I have two little girls, so Kona is more practical, but I REALLY want a manual transmission. I've only owned 1 automatic car, Hyundai Sonata 2.0T. Even with the turbo, it wasn't as fulfilling without a manual shifter.
Decisions, decisions.
Beautiful car.. wish this car will launch in India also. always like your review ..can't wait to see your Chanel hitting a million subscribers . Huge fan from India.
Thank you Horam for enjoying the Kia Cadenza review. And yes, let's grow the channel all together!
3:03 side view is gorgeous 🥰
Thanks Aaa.
I have to ask, did you really get 42.3mpg on the highway with that 3.5G tester? Seems kinda high. I wish they would make this with the twin turbo v6 AWD or rear wheel
Yes, i did. I was cruising about 60mph on the highway. Thanks.
I so fucking love your videos man! btw I own a Kia Optima and I love it
Yes, Kia Optima is a great car. Thank you for enjoying the 2022 Kia Cadenza review.
FINALLY they updated the Kia badge
Yeap. Jimmy. New logo goes quite well with new Kia Cadenza.
Very beautiful car!
I like the shark trim!
Front grill is sick! Blinkers are sooo different. Back lights are also beautiful!
That map on the ultrawide screen looks insane! 😳
I have a 2016 Lexus GS with 12.5" display, but that KIA ultrawide looks gorgeous! If it's sharp display as the 2021 Genesis G80 it would be awesome!
Yes, i think you guys will love the Kia Cadenza review.
My first visit to your channel you are amazing 👍🌺
Thank you Rayan for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
very nice thank you for the review Mutik
Thank you for enjoying 2022 Kia cadenza review.
I wish they didn't discontinue the Cadenza in the US.
I just picked up a 2020 Avalon Limited...
Yes, i think this New Kia Cadenza really deserves another chance in US. Thanks.
7:11 this kind of gear selector is in my taste ✌👍👏
^^ Thank you.
I love it😍😍
Thank you for enjoying the Kia Cadenza review.
We in America love the new kia logo.. Sales are jumping because of the new nice design Logo
Nice. Thanks for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
Great review, absolutely love 💕 the new Kia badging.
Thank you Ravi for enjoying the 2022 Kia Cadenaza review.
Hoping that kia will release it to Philippines along with the kia k5. They are both so LIT!! But I like k8 more than k5 hehe.
Yes, hope you guys get the new Kia Cadenza and Kia K5 in Philippines. Thanks.
6:07 I like this kind of trunk 👍👍👍
Maybe not so useful but simple and less problematic (my opinion)🙋♂️🙋♂️🙋♂️
Thank you Aaa. Yes, this new Kia Cadenza has quiet of large trunk. Thank you~
They should bring this to the US
I know right? Come on Kia, you should bring this new Kia Cadenza to US.
I'm planning to turn the arm rest into a mini fridge, so I can bring some cold whiskey with me while I travel, but it looks like it's a bad idea.
LOL. Thanks Kenneth. That would be cool~
I love my 2018 Cadenza. But why didn’t they make the backseat go down? I thought they would’ve corrected that issue being that everyone I have spoken with complains about the same thing.
they should make this available in the usa. very nice car.
k8 미국에도 출시되나요? 디자인 하나는 진짜 멋진데...
Is k8 comming to US market?
I doubt it, but i really think the 2022 Kia Cadenza deserves another chance in N. America. Thanks jjh.
im curious is this car coming to the U.S? Its truly a amazing looking car!
For now no words. But I really hope you guys get the new Kia Cadenza soon in N. America. Thanks.
I really wish this car has in Malaysia with Right hand drive version. It would be so great.
Yes, hope you guys get Kia Cadenza soon in Malaysia. Thanks cinamon90.
What's up peeps just thought I would let you all know that I am a convert. Just bought the 2022 K5 but it was kind of by chance.
My transmission went s*** city in my Ford Focus, go figure. Mind you it only had 12 or so thousand miles lol.
But had that dry dual-clutch transmission that Ford's been having so much problems with. So I took the jump and got the 2022 K-5 EX and it's boss!!
Dreamcatcher sounds amazing in it BTW & Yes, check them out!! Never thought I'd ever buy a KiA. Now I'm wondering why I waited so long lol. :b
I love the new K8, when is it coming to America. The Cadenza didn't make it because of marketing and lack of improvement. This car will make it because of Technology and styling
Please let me drive one for 6 months and become spokesman for car. Please improve rear headroom and have side rear interior lights and speaker. Luxury value for money. Sincerely yours Derek Moss
I definitely think this new Kia Cadenza deserves another chance in USA. Thank you.
Most luxurious stylish kia in the lineup
Yes, this new one looks quite promising. Thank you for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review.
I wish Kia would sell this in the U.S. 😢 The K5 is great but this is so much nicer...
Yes, Dylan. This new Kia Cadenza is big brother of K5, roomier and more elegant.
Thanks a lot for review!
One thing I really need to know, Does the center mirror have an auto dimming feature and an LED screen for more rear visibility?
Please reply back
Now that's how you test drive a car
Thank you C G for enjoying the Kia Cadenza review!.
Did the car just drive up to him?? 😳😍
I am just in love with this car. KIA bring it on to India soon :)
Yes, hope you guys get this all new Kia Cadenza soon in India. Thanks Surjit.
Good video brother 👍💪 this is my dream car, wish it was in the U.S.
Yes, this all new Kia Cadenza definitely deserves another chance in N. America. Thanks Taz.
Yes I think is better than Avalon. Reliably I can’t say. I bet is good not better than Toyota. Comparable though is a success.
Yes, Kia still has homework to do. But this all new Kia Cadenza looks quite promising. Thanks.
lol this guy is the craziest test driver
Thank you Thomas for enjoying the Kia Cadenza review.
Will this be the U.S version as well
Great Job on this video 👏👏
Is there a Right hand drive version yet?
By the way, nice review.
Thank you The Man for enjoying the new Kia Cadenza review. I am not sure about the right hand drive version yet. Thanks.
It's absolutely stunning
Yes, this new Kia Cadenza looks quite promising.
Does it have Wireless Android Auto or only wired? And how does the line keeping work? is it good? How about the projector? Need more details on the tech
You have to plug in. thank you for enjoying the 2022 Kia Cadenza review.
Would be helpful if you could state the power and torque figures in kW and Nm. I can't relate to imperial. Thanks.
Recording dash camera including in this model Charlie? Love the colour...I do not fans the rear...if they have 5 spoke of rims..would be better look kia
Yes, boyzepter. This all new Kia Cadenza also has dash came. This new Kia Cadenza had Aurora Black. Thanks.
@@AsianPetrolhead I hope come to Australia.. for some reason Australia has no dash camera as privacy issues
