Howdy,
Just received a phone call from my local dealer saying the car we want has arrived at the dealership today.
2015 Kia Cadenza Limited Platinum Graphite, Gray Nappa Leather interior.

Please post some pics. That is the color combo I want too.!

 

[MacDogg]

Looks the same as the 2014 on the KIA website except for the plain jane fender vents. Gonna look like every other car around here with stick on fender vents.

Very cool. Please do post up some pics once you get it, & congrats!

any major changes?

 

[Daybreak]

Howdy,
I do not think the prior post worked.
Here are some quick fresh snaps from the dealership.

Very nice, I already spot a thing or two different! Beautiful!

I see that they added side vents to the fender, and (new?) rims, and possibly a new honeycomb design grille? Please let us know if the headlights have DRL in them (not the white plastic piece)

I think the rims are the same as the 2014 SXL rims. I really wouldnt mind that front facing camera tho~!

Howdy,
The 360 camera stuff is really neat. Yes, you have it come on when you back up, but you also have a button to turn it on. You also can select a viewing style (forward as main and all the others, or front left as main and all others, or left rear and all others... and onward.
This is the full 2015 Cadenza Limited. I noticed a lot of early ones (first 2 months of production were made and then did not have all the stuff, and they had a -Limited Deletion Package -$1,000

Ya, that birds eye view camera looks cool. But did they change the interior where the door handle is too? looks higher and incorporated into the wood.

 

[Beezwax]

I want those **** rims on mine! 360* camera is cool... i tinkered with the k900 one when I was with KIA. wouldnt mind that either

Howdy,
Here is a shot of the front.

I love the 360 degree camera on the K900 too. Just sucks you can't keep it on after going a certain speed. It shuts off automatically.

 

[brandontaz2k2]

soo.... does it have daytime running lights?

Howdy,
I am sorry to say, it does not have DRL.
I have a 2013 Optima SXL which has DRL. The steering column stick even names it as such. Why would a function such as DRL not make it onto newer cars?


and.... the best looking DRL's are the ones on the 13 optima sxl. Later models just look like a aftermarket hack.
