Those with a family can rejoice at the return of Kia’s Sedona minivan model. This model manages to incorporate a tremendous blend of luxury gadgets, interior space, muscle and safety all into one expedient machine. In fact, the Sedona remains the only one in its class to receive both a five-star safety rating and the title “Top Safety Pick” from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. This defensive automobile comes as a short-wheelbase model, a long-wheelbase medium-level LX model and a high-level long-wheelbase EX model.

On the inside, the lucky passengers are given three rows of spaciousness. The third row is split folding, so it can be condensed in order to make room for any cargo you need to transport. The second row features one-touch flip-and-fold seats to allow easier access into the vehicle. Other standard equipment that the 2008 model holds include air conditioning with tri-zone controls, a front row folding extendable side table, cruise control, power lock doors, keyless entry and more! To make things even better the buyer has the option to include a rear seat DVD entertainment system, leather upholstery and heated front seats to their vehicle; it all depends on how much luxury you want in your Sedona.

The inside isn’t just loaded with convenience, but a hearty number of safety measures filter the interior space. Along with the dual front advanced airbags, the Sedona is outfitted with dual front seat-mounted side airbags and full-length side curtain airbags. To add to the myriad of airbags, the Sedona has other safety and stability features such as an electronic stability system, traction control, a Tire Pressure Monitoring system, all-disc antilock brakes and the list goes on!

Now for what makes this minivan move. The Sedona holds a 3.8-liter V6 engine that can generate 250 horsepower and 253 lb.-ft. of torque. The respectable engine teams with a 5-speed electronically controlled Sportmatic® transmission.

All of this blended creates one functional family vehicle. It provides the necessary space, comfort, safety and power to keep everyone happy.
