Used 2020 Kia Cadenza Sedan Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

For 2020, the Kia Cadenza is offered in only two trim levels: Technology and Limited. Both are powered by a 3.3-liter V6 engine (290 horsepower, 253 lb-ft) mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. All Cadenzas are front-wheel-drive. Highlight features include:

Technology
Comes well equipped with:

  • 18-inch wheels
  • LED headlights
  • Panoramic sunroof
  • Leather seating
  • Power-adjustable front seats
  • Heated front seats
  • 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen
  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility
  • Wireless smartphone charging
  • Keyless entry with push-button start

The Cadenza also comes with these safety features:

  • Adaptive cruise control (adjusts speed to maintain a constant distance between the vehicle and the car in front)
  • Rear automatic braking (brakes if sensors detect an imminent collision with an object behind the vehicle)
  • Automatic emergency braking (warns if a front impact is imminent and applies the brakes if the driver doesn't respond in time)
  • Blind-spot monitor (alerts you if a vehicle in the next lane over is in your blind spot)
  • Rear automatic braking (brakes if sensors detect an imminent collision with an object behind the vehicle)

Limited
Includes additional features, such as:

  • 19-inch wheels
  • Heated windshield wipers
  • Power-adjustable steering wheel
  • Upgraded leather seating surfaces
  • Driver-seat memory settings
  • Ventilated front seats
  • Heated outboard rear seats
  • Heated steering wheel
  • 12-speaker Harman Kardon audio system
  • 360-degree camera system (gives you a top-down view of the Cadenza and its surroundings for tight parking situations)

Which Cadenza trim does Edmunds recommend?

We'd put our money on the top-of-the-line Limited. We think the upgraded Harman Kardon audio system, ventilated seats and surround-view camera system add a hefty dose of luxury and are worth the extra money.
