TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2016 Honda Odyssey stands at the top of the minivan heap, with more design flair and more driving enjoyment than most other three-row rivals.

The 2016 Kia Sedona is a viable alternative to the four top-selling minivans, with a quiet and spacious interior, a very comfortable high-end seating option, a smooth ride, and a modern infotainment system.

TCC Likes

Good interior packaging
Responsive handling
Sedan-like fuel economy

A tastefully updated shape
Quiet cabin
Impressive infotainment

TCC Dislikes

Front seats lack support
Pricier than the competition
No longer so "mini"

Gas mileage is just average
A hefty van, even in base trim
No all-wheel drive option
