Kia minivan sedona 2020

2020 Kia Sedona

Available in seven- or eight-seat configurations, the Sedona use a 3.3-liter V6 paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission. It makes 276 horsepower and 248 pound-feet of torque and earned EPA fuel economy ratings of 18mpg in the city, 24mpg on the highway and 21mpg combined. It has 142 cubic-feet of cargo volume behind the front seats and 33.9 cu ft of cargo room behind the third row. A 7.0-inch color touchscreen infotainment unit with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility is standard, as are second-row Slide-N-Stow seats and 60/40 split foldaway third-row seats.

The Sedona is attractive enough, fulfills the minivan mission well and offers plenty of safety tech, but modern and advanced offerings from Honda and Chrysler define the segment and are too good to ignore.

Trim Specifications

Dual sliding doors seem like a must-have on a minivan so that automatically requires an upgrade to the LX trim from the base L. The upcharge also brings two additional speakers for a total of six, adds a power-adjustable driver’s seat with lumbar support and rear privacy glass, so the $2800 upcharge is well spent.

Leather seating requires an upgrade to the EX trim, which is the best value of the group without going over-the-top in terms of price. The EX smart key with push-button start, 18-inch wheels, smart sliding rear doors, roof rails, blind-spot collision warning, parking assist, rear cross-traffic collision warning, heated front seats, a leather-wrapped gearshift knob and steering wheel, and a wireless phone charger.

The SX trim adds a bevy of luxury and convenience upgrades such as LED exterior lighting, an eight-inch infotainment screen, 110V power outlets, ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and several additional advanced safety and driving aids.

Kia Sedona Generations

First Generation

Kia entered the U.S. minivan market when it introduced the 2002 Sedona. It had a 3.5-liter V6 that output 195 horsepower and linked to a five-speed automatic transmission. The Sedona launched at a lower price point than its competitors but still offered many standard features such as dual sliding doors, power doors and locks, dual-zone air conditioning, cruise control, and a removable sliding middle seat.

Second Generation

Built on a new platform, Kia’s second go with the Sedona was longer and wider, resulting in a roomier interior. A 3.8-liter V6 replaced a 3.5-liter unit, and it again paired with a five-speed automatic transmission. The 2006 Sedona makes 244 horsepower and 253 pound-feet of torque and earned an EPA rating of 16 mpg in the city, 23 mpg on the highway, and 18 mpg combined. The front-drive minivan featured seven- or eight-person configurations. Standard features included a foldaway third row, keyless entry, and second-row captain’s seats. Leather seats, heated front seats, leather trim, fog lights, a power liftgate, and a premium entertainment system were available on higher trims or as options.

Third Generation

The Sedona was the last vehicle in Kia’s lineup to receive Peter Schreyer’s seasoned touch of mature refinement. Debuting as a 2015, the new-gen MPV was sculpted to have as much SUV appeal as possible, and it made for an extremely handsome design. The fresh generation introduces new L, SX, and SX Limited trims. A 3.5-liter V6 is out, and a 3.3-liter V6 is in. It makes 276 horsepower and 248 pound-feet of torque and pairs with a six-speed automatic transmission.

Минивэн Kia Carnival отправил имя Sedona в историю

В Штатах за Carnival просят от $32 100. Для сравнения, Honda Odyssey (284 л.с.) стоит $32 090, Chrysler Pacifica (291 л.с.) ― $35 045, а Toyota Sienna (248 л.с.) ― $34 460. К слову, в 2020-м самым популярным в классе минивэном стала Pacifica (93 802 проданных машины), а наименее успешным ― Sedona (13 190).

Минивэн Kia Carnival нового поколения в Южной Корее доступен с лета 2020 года. Скоро начнутся продажи и в России, где автомобиль по цене от 2,6 млн рублей уже начали собирать. Вышла новинка и на североамериканский рынок, но не под привычным именем Sedona, а под названием Carnival. Переименование связано с иным позиционированием модели (это же теперь Grand Utility Vehicle или кроссвэн). Более того, Carnival стал первым автомобилем в американском модельном ряду корейской компании, который получил новый логотип. Силовой агрегат безальтернативный ― мотор V6 3.5 GDI (294 л.с., 355 Н•м) и восьмиступенчатый «автомат». Привод ― только передний.

По умолчанию Carnival оснащается системами автоторможения, мониторинга слепых зон и усталости водителя, удержания в полосе и управления дальним светом, а за доплату доступны радарный круиз-контроль, завязанный на работу с навигацией, и камеры кругового обзора.

В списке базового оснащения значатся девять подушек безопасности, обычный кондиционер, мультимедийная система с восьмидюймовым дисплеем, поддержкой протоколов Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay и Android Auto, бесключевой доступ в салон и камера заднего вида. Двухзонный климат-контроль, виртуальная панель приборов, экран на 12,3 дюйма и кожаная обивка кресел ― опции.

Американцам предложили трёхрядные версии, хотя на родине Carnival бывает и с четырьмя рядами сидений. Начальное исполнение для США подразумевает восемь посадочных мест, а более дорогой вариант ― семь, с двумя раздельными креслами во втором ряду с расширенными регулировками и подставками для ног. А ещё у заокеанского минивэна в салоне будет полноценный рычаг переключения режимов коробки передач вместо поворотной шайбы и ниша на центральной консоли без крышки (под ней прятались бы USB-разъёмы). Заказы на машины в комплектациях LX, EX, SX и SX-Prestige уже принимают, а первые экземпляры доберутся до дилеров во втором квартале 2021 года.

2020 Kia Sedona

The 2020 Sedona is unchanged from last year, so try to find a deal on a 2019 model if you can, preferably with the optional package that includes active safety tech.

features & specs

The 2020 Kia Sedona provides minivan versatility, but it’s overshadowed by its crossover SUV stablemates.

The 2020 Kia Sedona carries the torch for minivans, even as SUVs and crossovers pass it by. The stylish Sorento and new Telluride make the Sedona a hard sell even in its own showroom.

With the 2020 Sedona, Kia still omits some safety features on base models, a major oversight on a family-friendly vehicle. We award points for its style, comfortable ride, and spacious interior, but take some away for that lack of standard safety tech. At 5.7 out of 10 overall it sits firmly in the middle of the pack among minivans. ( Read more about how we rate cars .)

For 2020 the Sedona carries over completely, retaining its option packages and four trim levels. A sedate exterior and spacious, high-quality interior are among the Sedona’s highlights, but it’s no runway model like the Chrysler Pacifica. While it lacks the interior versatility of rivals like the Pacifica, with its Stow ’n Go seats, the Sedona is vast and quiet inside.

A 276-horsepower V-6 and 8-speed automatic provide decent forward motivation, but fuel economy suffers at just 21 mpg combined. The Sedona is soft and composed in normal driving and features capable handling, but don’t expect anything other than careful handling.

At around $28,500 to start, the Sedona is relatively inexpensive for a minivan, and that base price includes 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment with Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard. The Sedona EX represents the best value with easy-to-clean leather upholstery, but active safety features like automatic braking and handy options like a power liftgate require an option package that pushes the total price to nearly $40,000. For that money, we’d opt for another minivan—or one of Kia’s fancy new SUVs.
