2014 Kia Sedona
As that 2015 Kia Sedona, borrowing elements from the latest Sorento, is waiting in the wings, the 2014 Kia Sorento is a seat-warmer—and essentially a continuation of the 2006-2012 model. It's seen a few modest updates over the years, including a new grille and headlamps for 2011. Another round of minor touches this year, as Kia tries to reconcile the Sedona's carry-over proportions with the clean Euro-chic proportions and details—otherwise vestiges of a former era, before the brand found its design identity, some of us might argue—help carry this model into the present.
Price increases are modest. When it left us for 2012, the Sedona started at $25,750; now it's priced at $26,750, including destination, while the Sedona EX starts at $31,750. Although that is far above the budget-price and fleet-oriented Dodge Caravan SE, yet in the vicinity, in pricing and equipment, of the Dodge Caravan SXT, Toyota Sienna L, and Nissan Quest S.
While the Sedona never had any trick seating layouts or above-and-beyond versatility, it did form an impression with our editorial team for its comfortable ride and pretty impressive 3.5-liter V-6 and six-speed automatic.
See our review page on the 2014 Kia Sedona for more information, which we'll update as soon as we get a follow-up drive with this family hauler.
