The Cadenza really starts to impress when you look at how much you get, in terms of features, for the money. My test car cost just a little over $40,000. That's a low price for a big car with a panoramic sunroof, heated and cooled driver's seat, a very nice stereo, active cruise control and more. (Prices start at around $35,000, which is in line with the competition.)
Every time I approached the car it welcomed me by unfolding its side mirrors and shining lights onto the ground around the doors lest I step into a puddle as I went for the door handle. You usually have to buy a real luxury car to get features like that.
So the Cadenza may not be the best in its class but it's at least as good as any and it offers something none of the others have. A bit of excitement along with all that style.
