• The latest images of the front, side, and back of the upcoming sedan hint at its identity as the Kia K8, showcasing its unique and intriguing design.
  • The K8 took the place of the Kia Cadenza when it stopped being sold in the US in 2020.
  • We still like new cars, even though the K8 won’t be sold here.

Kia has undergone many changes. Before, the Korean company made fairly priced but basic cars. Now, they make a variety of stylish and high-end cars, such as the popular Telluride mid-size SUV and the Carnival minivan, which has very comfortable VIP rear lounge seats.

The Kia K8 Sedan, which will replace the Cadenza, is shown in new pictures

In the United States, though, not every high-end strategy Kia has tried has worked. The full-size Cadenza car was a mistake, and it will no longer be made in the United States after 2020. The K8 type is still around in South Korea, though. Today, a new set of teaser photos were shared that show how great the upgrade will likely look.

Teaser pictures show most of the K8’s new design. It looks a lot like Kia’s electric cars, even though shadows hide the lower bumpers. Kia’s newest design language, “Opposites United,” has switched from electric to gas-powered cars this year. The new K4 and redesigned Carnival are two examples.

The new K8’s sleek vertical headlights look like they came straight from the electric EV9 SUV. A small trim piece that is linked by tiny lit hash marks. The taillights cover the whole width of the car and are made up of a thin horizontal piece that ends in two vertical LEDs. The side picture makes the roofline’s steep slope stand out.

We still really like cars, even though we don’t think the new Kia K8 will ever be sold in the US. Because of this, it’s interesting to see what comes into other markets, especially if it’s the newest version of a car that was sold here before.
