Cars like Sienna Odyssey and the Chrysler that have already established themselves as reliable minivan brands could feel insecure the way Kia Sedona has evolved itself.

The latest Sedona gets power from 3.8 L V6 engine phenomenal in delivering 244 horsepower. In addition, Kia offers Hyundai's 5-year, 60,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty with the Sedona.
Sedona has got all the ingredients to become one of the leading family vehicles in the North American car market. With various cargo options and second and third-row seating facility, Sedona could well become the minivan to watch out for.
