2020 Kia Cadenza gets previewed in sketches

This week, Kia's Korean-market Facebook page released a handful of teaser sketches for the new Kia K7, which is the Cadenza in the US.

A Porsche 911 S brought Manuel Carrillo III home from the hospital after he was born, so it's no surprise his lifelong trajectory has centered on cars, leading him to a robust career creating rich automotive media for publications prior to joining CNET.

The Southern California native briefly lived in Sydney, and is proud to have developed a barely passable Aussie accent. He also serves on the board of directors of the Motor Press Guild. When not reviewing cars or nerding out on OEM premium audio, you can find manual-labor-averse Manuel doing his best to convince his closest friends to fix the very Porsche that delivered him home.

We requested comment from Kia here in the US to see if these updates will come to the Cadenza, or whether Kia even plans on continuing to sell its Toyota Avalon competitor in the US. In response, a Kia spokesperson was only able to tell Roadshow that the automaker has "great Cadenza news coming soon."
