2015 Kia Sedona - Car and Driver (blog)

Snazzy, sporty, and striking aren’t words you associate with minivans—but the ambitious folks at Kia have managed to bake a little of each into the new Sedona. With room for eight, storage for family necessities, and a long list of standard and optional safety features, the Sedona is now a compelling choice for value-minded shoppers. Powered by a 276-hp, 3. 3-liter V-6 with a six-speed gearbox and riding on a new suspension, the Sedona also injects a little fun into daily kid-ferrying duties. Instrumented Test – 2015 Kia Sedona As the minivan segment has matured, all-new entries have become increasingly rare as the Honda, Toyota, and Chrysler troika continue to dominate. Case in point: Kia is offering the only completely new minivan for 2015, and it’s the Korean brand’s first new vehicle of the type since 2006. The 2015 Sedona is likely to find its way into the lives of more families this year—and not just those... Today, the entire brand looks very different, and from the Forte to the Optima, the Cadenza to the Sportage, Kia’s showrooms are full of handsome vehicles. The Sedona fits in and is arguably the best-looking minivan for sale today—although that’s not a hard contest to win. Source: www.caranddriver.com
