For The Kia Sedona has lots of power and good space for seven. All models are well equipped and include sliding side doors for easy access.
Against The Sedona's seats have to be removed to make full use of the available space. It's not as classy or as good to drive as the class leaders.
What Car? says
Kia's Sedona is good at moving people, but can't match the best rivals for cabin flexibility or road manners.

Buyer's notes
Target Price team says:
Kia keeps things simple with the Sedona. There's just one engine to choose – a 192bhp diesel - and three trim choices, called 1, 2 and 3.
You can opt for a six-speed automatic gearbox, but it can't quite make up its mind which gear it should be in at low speeds, and this dents fuel economy and emissions. The auto is also four tax bands higher than the manual.
It's a shame that 1 and 2 trims miss out on stability control as standard – but you can specify it as an option. 1 does get air-con and all-round electric windows, and seems to us to offer better value than 2 trim, which gets alloy wheels, rear parking sensors that are incorporated into the rear-view mirror and climate control as standard.
Kia is famed for its seven-year warranty, and the Sedona carries huge peace mind because of it, especially as there is no mileage limit in the first three years (except on cars used as taxis, where it's 100,000 miles).
