Kia

Sedona

We purchased this minivan in a private transaction about six months ago. We had the opportunity to drive it during all kinds of weather conditions. It handles well for a vehicle of its size, and is especially good at making tight turns for getting into parking spaces or the occasional U-turn. The engine has exceptional acceleration ability. It is easy to over-accelerate because the throttle pedal has minimal resistance to the driver's foot. For highway driving the vehicle can get the driver out of the possible jam because of its responsive power. It can be heavily loaded and still performs well and maintains good road stability. Put bluntly the sound system is pathetic, though it all works. The slope of the windshield makes driving in the rain less than comfortable. The wipers do the best they can, but often the windshield gets streaky. The seating is comfortable for a vehicle of this size. The sliding doors are a bit stubborn to release the latch when opening, but move very smoothly. The interior light doesn't come on when the rear hatch is opened. The low-beam headlights don't project as well as we prefer. At night there is a "shade" effect as the car approaches a building, which is the same as the vehicle is driven on the road. The reverse safety warning is a benefit. Overall it is a good vehicle.

Very excellent car...even at its age. Powerful, economic, and smooth.

I love my Kia. Runs great. Has quite a few bells & whistles to it. Runs well. Seats 7-9 People, Whole family can travel together, which is a big plus.

This car is the best minivan we have owned. My wife loved it. Handles well, excellent fuel economy, not as good as Chrysler on quietness but still better overall. 1 problem I consider major is both front spindles went out at only 68000 miles. Dealer wanted $670 + $200 per spindle to replace them. Who in their right mind would pay that much for a failure at 68000 miles.

The Best and Safest Mini van out there. The best for having all the bells and whistles at the best price.

I like it. Could have had a few more bells and whistles for the price.

We have been very happy with our Sedona. It very comfortable to travel in and lot of room.
