Kia Cadenza car rental for roomy V6 comfort
Drive a Cadenza
A Kia Cadenza car rental puts you in a roomy, full-size sedan with a comfortable ride and relaxed freeway manners. It was the brand's large sedan, and 2020 was its final model year. Want to see the rest of the lineup? Browse every Kia rental on Turo.
On Turo, you book your Cadenza from a local vehicle owner and choose a pickup and drop-off that fit your plans. Search by city or airport, compare listings by year, rating, and price, and book the one that suits your trip.

Smooth, confident V6 power
The Cadenza runs on a 3.3-liter V6 that makes 290 hp and 253 lb-ft of torque. An eight-speed automatic sends that power to the front wheels, so merging and passing feel easy. On the freeway, it settles into a calm, unhurried cruise — the kind that makes a long drive feel shorter.
A big-screen cabin that keeps things clear
Every 2020 Cadenza comes with a 12.3-inch touchscreen as standard, so you get the big display no matter which trim you book. A larger screen means larger targets, which makes it easier to find what you need with a quick glance and a tap.
Behind the steering wheel, a 4.2-inch color TFT screen in the instrument panel keeps key details in your line of sight. Between the two screens, you'll spend less time hunting through menus and more time watching the road ahead. It's a simple setup that feels grown-up and easy to learn — even if you've just picked up the keys.
Room for five to stretch out
The Cadenza seats five, and the EPA classifies it as a large car, so space is the whole point. Front passengers get 45.5 inches of legroom, and rear passengers get 37.2 inches, which keeps long drives easier on everyone's knees.
Out back, the 16-cubic-foot trunk handles suitcases, carry-ons, and grocery runs in stride. Pack for a weekend away or a week of business travel, and you'll still have room for four passengers to ride in comfort. That mix of legroom and luggage space suits group airport runs, family visits, and any trip where everyone wants extra room.
Stand out with a Cadenza
The Cadenza shines on trips where comfort and quiet matter most — road trips, airport runs, business travel, and evenings out with four passengers along. Since production ended after 2020, you won't spot one at every stoplight, which gives it an under-the-radar appeal. It's a big sedan that feels polished and grown-up without shouting about it.
Top Cadenza features
Final-year design refresh
Three things set the Cadenza apart: its final-year design refresh, its rarity, and its road-trip efficiency.
The 2020 model year gave the Cadenza its final — and freshest — face. The update brought a new grille with chrome detailing, along with narrower, smaller headlights that give the front end a sleeker look.
The result looks polished and confident, with enough chrome to catch the light without tipping into flashy. Want the latest styling the Cadenza ever wore? Look for a 2020 model, since earlier model years carry the previous design, and check each listing's year before you book.
A rare sedan with no successor
The Cadenza was the brand's large sedan, and production ended after the 2020 model year with no replacement. Built in South Korea, the 2020 model closed out its run.
That makes it a car you're unlikely to see at every curb. For you, it means a big, comfortable sedan that feels a little out of the ordinary. It's a welcome change of pace if you're tired of renting the same few models. It's also a fun way to try a full-size sedan you may never have a chance to buy new.
Road-trip efficiency
The Cadenza earns EPA-estimated ratings of 20 mpg city, 28 mpg highway, and 23 mpg combined. Pair that highway number with an 18.5-gallon tank, and you can cover plenty of freeway miles between gas station stops.
That's handy on a long road trip, when fewer stops mean more time at your destination. Plan fuel breaks around your route, and you'll spend more of the drive enjoying that relaxed V6 cruise. It's the kind of efficiency that lets a big, comfortable sedan make sense for a long weekend away.
Top tips and things to know before renting a Cadenza
Get to know your Cadenza
Before you book, it helps to know the trims, a few driving habits, and how pricing works on Turo.
The 2020 Cadenza came in two trims: Technology and Limited. It uses an eight-speed automatic with Sportmatic manual mode, so you can let it shift on its own or take control when you want.
Comparing full-size sedans? Check out a Chrysler 300 rental or a Dodge Charger rental. If a midsize sedan fits your trip better, a Toyota Camry rental is worth a look.
Cadenza driving tips
A few quick habits make the Cadenza even easier to enjoy:
Use Sportmatic manual mode when you want more control on hills or winding roads.
Leave extra room when you park, since the Cadenza stretches 196.7 inches long.
Learn the 12.3-inch touchscreen before you set off, so you're not tapping through menus mid-drive.
How much does it cost to rent a Cadenza?
Cadenza rental prices vary because local vehicle owners set their own rates, which change with location, dates, and model year. Longer trips can cost less per day, since listings offer trip-duration discounts at three days, one week, two weeks, three weeks, and monthly.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.

When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
