Huffines KIA Denton Proudly presents the new 2014 KIA Cadenza

Kia explodes on to the Luxury Vehicle Market with the New 2014 Kia Cadenza

KIA has made its mark on the automotive industry with great models that exceed expectations and re-define standards, and all at the best price.  This year, Kia looks to surprise again with a new Luxury Model, the 2014 Kia Cadenza.

The Cadenza is making impressions with reviewers and will be available to the world very soon, all 293 horsepower of it.  Complete with a wealth of standard and optional high-end features, along with sharp styling that makes it stand apart from the crowd.

The Cadenza muscles aside the Chrysler 300, Toyota Avalon, Buick LaCrosse, and Volkswagen Passat, and is the best choice for buyers interested in a large sedan.  Standard features include 18 inch alloy wheels, foglights, rain-sensing wipers, power-folding side mirrors, keyless ignition/entry, leather upholstery, dual-zone climate control, and a 10-way power driver seat as well as 4-way power passenger seat.


The standard high-tech features amp it up even further with a rearview camera, rear park assist, 8-inch touchscreen display, Kia’s Uvo voice command system, a navigation system, Bluetooth phone/audio and a 12-speaker Infinity Surround-Sound system.  That’s a lot of great features that make the Cadenza stand even taller over its competitors.

You have to see this amazing vehicle to believe it!  Check it out on the showroom floor of Huffines KIA Denton located at 5150 Interstate 35 in Denton, Texas, come or call 940.321.2504 and schedule a test drive the new standard of luxury.

Can you Name this Car? You will be surprised!

“Luxury at its finest” is what automotive critics have published.  “This car is good-looking, well-powered, and an impressively mannered four-door…” stated by the Associated Press.

The list of standard features on the front-wheel drive vehicle is lengthy including a rearview camera, navigation system, and 18-inch wheels.  If you guessed Toyota Avalon or the Buick LaCrosse you would be mistaken.  In addition to the Avalon and LaCrosse measuring up; this vehicle comes standard with a free telematics system which among other things, it can save the parked car’s location and help guide the driver back to the vehicle via GPS after a day of shopping, weeklong vacation, or business trip.

Its generous warranty program provides powertrain coverage for 10 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first as well as limited basic warranty coverage for five years or 60,000 miles.  Roadside assistance last for the same five years or 60,000 miles.

Are you thinking Cadillac?  Think again.

At first glance after looking at the headlights, onlookers were surprised that this vehicle was not a BMW.  As they viewed the rear end of this slick machine; they were shocked that it was not an Audi either.

Besides the attractive styling, a luxury vehicle has to handle great too.  Right?  This car is more than 16 feet long, so how would it take potholed city streets, winding country roads, or even gravel or dirt roads?  Don’t you need a SUV to enjoy a smooth ride?

This transport carrier dominated the highways, and because it uses independent MacPherson struts up front and an independent multilink setup in back there was no jolting or unnecessary road noise in the cabin.  Are you thinking Lexus?  Now you are grasping at straws.

Although the motor vehicle comes standard with the usual safety equipment like eight air bags, traction, electronic stability, and hill descent control it also has other nice safety features as well.  Some of these amenities are the side blind spot monitoring and lane departure warning.

If you are thinking you would be traveling in a Yukon, you would have made another wrong guess.

With federal government fuel economy ratings for this model being 19 miles per gallon in city driving and 28 miles per gallon on the highway with an average 22 mpg; this efficient test car averaged better than 24 miles per gallon during a range of 445 miles on a single 18.5 gallon tank.  With that much time not having to make continuous pit-stops at the gas station; it is very nice to have all of the controls and buttons in perfect location to operate.  Not to mention, the Infinity radio; this has an eyebrow-raising 550 watts of power, 12 speakers and surround sound which is all standard.  Nope!  It is not a Mercedes either.

OK, one more clue.  Let’s talk about pricing.  Are you thinking $45,000?  With all of these options you are probably expecting a $55,000 sticker price.  What if I were to tell you this beautiful, powerful, high performance vehicle’s base price is around $20,000 cheaper than its luxury counter-parts.  That’s right.  Estimated prices for a 2014 model are estimated at $34,000 to drive it off of the show-room floor.

You wouldn’t believe it if I told you.  So you will have to see it for yourself.  Visit Huffines KIA Denton located at 5150 Interstate 35 in Denton, Texas to see the all new full-size sedan named 2014 KIA Cadenza.  Oops.  I told you what it is.  You still don’t believe me?  Call the dealership at 940.321.2504 and find out more about taking your new ride for a spin!

Kia’s New Sedan Beats Competition in Consumer Reports Ratings

The Kia Cadenza is the newest addition to Kia’s ever growing and improving line of vehicles.  The Korean automaker has been shaking things up in the automotive scene and their new Cadenza is already making a lot of noise in the large sedan segment.

Consumer Reports recently published a list ranking 12 large sedans, for the first time since 2007.  In 2007, the Toyota Avalon was at the top of the list, but this year fell behind the Cadenza.  The fact that the Avalon has been supplanted by Kia reflects heavily the upheaval in the global auto industry over the past six years.

“The Cadenza banishes any lingering thoughts that Kia is a manufacturer of cheap, unrefined cars,” said Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports.

“Kia has really risen up in our testing,” stated the magazine’s automotive editor, Rik Paul.

Consumer Reports is one of the most trusted and respected publications available today.  They have been providing reviews and comparisons of consumer products and services since 1936, but it’s not just Consumer Reports lavishing praise upon Kia lately.

MotorTrend recently published two “Big Tests,” one for compact sedans, and one for full-size sedans; and Kia reigned King in both.  Bottom line is critics, experts, and enthusiasts are raving about Kia’s new commitment to quality, safety, and affordability.

The praise and success of the Cadenza is definitely exciting for Kia fans and potential customers looking for a luxury sedan without the high price tag, but don’t just take the experts word for it; come experience the Cadenza up close and personal at Huffines Kia Denton.  Visit our showroom at 5150 South Interstate 35E in Denton, Texas or call us at 940-321-2504 today!

Huffines Kia Denton Provides Community with 1st Place Products

Huffines Kia Denton strives to give our customers the highest quality of customer service possible.  Quality is etched into the heart and soul of all things Kia.  The Kia brand is one that is focused on providing the most affordable, reliable, and best cars on the market.

Every year the car enthusiasts’ publication, MotorTrend conducts “The Big Test.”  The Big Test is a rigorous comparison of vehicles within each segment to determine a clear 1st place winner.  So far this year MotorTrend has conducted two big tests.  The June issue featured the comparisons between full-size sedans and this month’s issue pits compact cars against each other.

JUNE TEST: FULL-SIZE SEDANS

The first test had heavy hitters squaring off against each other, the Kia Cadenza, Ford Taurus, Toyota Avalon, Chevrolet Impala, and the Chrysler 300.

The Toyota Avalon was the winner in 2012, but it didn’t have the Cadenza to go up against last year.  This year’s test had the experts at MotorTrend pleasantly surprised at Kia’s new luxurious sedan.  The Cadenza amazed with its sleek styling, roominess, amazingly smooth ride, and array of luxury features that the other vehicles in the segment just don’t offer.

Yet despite all of the amazing features the Cadenza offers, the low price-tag prompted MotorTrend’s experts to proclaim the Cadenza as the best and biggest bang for your buck as they ushered it into first place glory.

WINNER: 2014 KIA CADENZA

JULY TEST: COMPACT CARS

Compact cars have been steadily climbing in popularity these past few years as consumers really enjoy the reprieve from the gas pumps.  In the past, compact cars were geared more towards performance, but today’s consumer doesn’t just want their compact car to be fun to drive, they want efficiency, value, features, and safety.  With these things in mind, MotorTrend began its Big Test.

The contenders were the Kia Forte, Nissan Sentra, Honda Civic, Dodge Dart, and Mazda 3.  The Mazda 3 won 1st place last year, but MotorTrend experts noted they weren’t really grading on overall value like they did this year and when it came to efficiency and features the Mazda 3 just couldn’t hold a candle to the Forte.

The 2014 Kia Forte wowed the judges as it combined all of the standards together into a perfect blend of awesomeness.  The great performance, fuel efficiency, low pricing, and an endless list of exclusive features propelled the Kia Forte into 1st place glory.


WINNER: 2014 KIA FORTE

Kia now has a perfect batting average in the Big Test and we couldn’t be more proud to offer such a great product to the Denton community.  There’s no better time than now to come take a look at these 1st place products and there’s no better place than at Huffines Kia Denton.  Visit our showroom at 5150 Interstate 35 in Denton, Texas or give us a call at (940) 321-2504 today!
