TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2017 Honda Odyssey may be replaced soon to bring it in line with competitors. It's still a practical van with a plan, and indispensable for big families.

The 2017 Kia Sedona is a viable alternative to more popular vans that can cost much more. For less than $30,000 to start, it makes a strong case based on value.

Good seating all the way around
Plenty of interior space

TCC Dislikes

Packages can get pricey
A little old compared to some
Ergonomics can be a little funky
