2020 Kia Sedona vs. Its Competition

2020 Kia Sedona
Brian León Brian León Contributing Writer

The Chrysler Pacifica and Honda Odyssey are the Sedona’s most contemporary competitors, but both offer more features, better versatility, and superior standard or optional safety tech.

Toyota’s Sienna is dated, and Dodge’s Grand Caravan is positively ancient, so we recommend looking elsewhere for your minivan needs.

Perhaps the Sedona’s greatest challenge is overcoming the competition within its corporate stable, including the Sorento and the jazzy new Telluride, both of which offer more capability and a high driving position; all they’re missing are sliding side doors.
