What’s new
The Kia Sedona is back after a one-year hiatus. Minor styling changes inside and out are the only notable updates.
Edmunds says
The 2014 Kia Sedona has the minivan basics covered, but its outdated design makes it hard to recommend in the face of its more recently updated competitors.

Vehicle overview
When an automaker brings out an updated version of an established model, there's usually a "ta-da!" moment when the company ticks off the long list of improvements it has made. In the case of the 2014 Kia Sedona, however, we're witnessing the return of a minivan that hasn't really changed all that much.
After Kia put its minivan on hiatus last year, most industry watchers expected an all-new Sedona model for 2014. Instead, the Sedona is back with no major changes to speak of, save for a handful of minor styling tweaks. To its credit, the 2014 Sedona still has some nice attributes, including a smooth ride, secure handling, attractive pricing, a roomy interior and, of course, Kia's healthy warranty coverage.
While those are all admirable qualities, though, the Sedona has fallen even farther behind the more recently updated leaders in the minivan class. This is most obvious in the features department, as you can't get the Sedona with useful items like keyless ignition/entry, a rear-seat entertainment system or blind-spot monitoring. The Sedona's interior design looks rather dated as well, and you won't find a second-row bench seat option as in some competitors. While the 2014 Kia Sedona still has a lot to offer, we strongly suggest minivan shoppers compare it with the Honda Odyssey, Nissan Quest and Toyota Sienna before making a final decision.
Performance & mpg
Powering the 2014 Kia Sedona is a 3.5-liter V6 that makes 269 horsepower and 246 pound-feet of torque. It sends its power to the front wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission. EPA fuel economy estimates are 20 mpg combined (17 mpg city/24 mpg highway), which are a bit less than those of the Odyssey and Sienna.
Safety
Standard safety features on the 2014 Kia Sedona include antilock brakes, traction and stability control, front seat side-impact airbags, side-curtain airbags and active front head restraints. Rear parking sensors are standard on all Sedonas, while a rearview camera is optional on the LX and standard on the EX.
In government crash tests, the 2014 Kia Sedona scored a rating of five stars overall, with five stars in frontal and side crash tests and four stars in rollover testing. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety gave the 2014 Sedona a rating of "Good."
Driving
The 2014 Kia Sedona's V6 engine delivers the performance expected for a minivan, with suitable power for tooling around town and quickly getting up to speed on freeway entrance ramps. The Sedona's ride quality is also quite comfortable, enough so that your brood might very well nod off on longer trips. Through turns, the suspension delivers secure, though unremarkable, handling.
Interior
Inside, the 2014 Kia Sedona sports a functional interior, though the layout and look of the dash and controls is a bit of a throwback compared to the fresher designs in newer competitors. Noise levels are low and captain's chairs for the front and second-row passengers offer good comfort and legroom. The 60/40-split third-row bench seat is fine for the elementary school crowd.
The interior also offers an abundance of storage bins, including an overhead holder for sunglasses and a center console sized to fit iPads and other portable electronics. When it comes to bigger cargo, all or part of the third-row seat can be folded into the floor to open up 80 cubic feet of storage space. If that's not enough, one or both of the second-row seats can be folded forward or wrestled out entirely (making it necessary to find somewhere to store them) to create a 141.5-cubic-foot cargo hold.
2014 Kia Sedona models
The 2014 Kia Sedona is a minivan with seating for seven passengers. It's available in two trim levels, LX and EX.
The entry-level LX comes equipped with 16-inch steel wheels, foglights, rear privacy glass, roof rack rails, rear parking sensors, air-conditioning with rear controls, a 60/40-split third-row seat, keyless entry, cruise control, a tilt-only steering wheel, Bluetooth phone connectivity and a six-speaker sound system with a CD player, satellite radio, a USB port and an auxiliary audio jack.
Optional for the LX is the Power Package, which adds 17-inch alloy wheels, automatic headlights, dual power-sliding side doors, a rearview camera (display in the rearview mirror) and an auto-dimming rearview mirror.
The EX comes standard with the LX's optional features above and further adds heated mirrors, power rear vent windows, a power liftgate, dual-zone automatic climate control, leather upholstery, heated front seats and a trip computer.
The options list on the EX includes a Luxury package that bundles a sunroof, rain-sensing windshield wipers, power-adjustable pedals and a driver's seat memory feature. A navigation system is also optional and comes with an eight-speaker Infinity sound system.

2012 Kia Sedona LX 4dr Minivan (3.5L 6cyl 6A)
We traded our 2011 Soul for this Sedona.
The soul was a great little car but it was difficult for us to get in and out especially with artificial knees.
We absolutely love our Sedona, we have the power package on it which gives you a lot of extras.
We average round about driving 23-24 mpg.
Not as good as the soul but it sure is a lot easier to get in and out of.
The engine is very … powerful and will throw you in the back seat if you kick the gas.
It has a six speed transmission and we don't even feel it shift.
At seventy mph it runs around 1600-1700 rpms.
That in itself saves the engine greatly over times.
With GM, and Ford quit making vans you only have a very few choices. Love it.
Great value on the EX

2014 Kia Sedona EX 4dr Minivan (3.5L 6cyl 6A)
We have only had the Sedona for 2 weeks, but we really like it. It feels great, has plenty of power, and cost a lot less that the Toyota or the Honda vans.
The pedals adjust for my wife, who is 5 feet tall, and she loves it.
It has leather, power seat with memory, and everything I want. It has a sun roof, which I didn't want.
If it missing anything, I can't imagine what it might be.
It … has back up camera, back up warning, blue tooth.
After a year we still love the van. We take our 3 grandchildren places and have room to carry plenty of stuff. We get between 20 and 22 miles per gallon in mixed driving.

2012 Kia Sedona LX 4dr Minivan (3.5L 6cyl 6A)
Bought this mainly to carry myself and several larger RC model aircraft on almost daily 60 mile round trips to flying site. Grew quickly to really like this vehicle. At 91K miles its been perfect in reliability and still tight and rattle free as new. I appreciate the smooth and strong acceleration, ride and excellent handling. My gas mileage has been a consistent 24 mpg in mixed … driving. OEM Yokohoma tires got noisier and noisier as they wore down, so replaced them early at about 49K miles with Generals which are much quieter with no loss of handling. Only thing I really miss is the fold into the floor center row seats found on the Chrysler minivans. I just take mine out and leave them home in the garage but would rather have the flexability of being there if I need them. Folding up against the front seats is available, but takes up too much needed room in my application. Dealers constant attempted upselling of servicing is annoying but follow the factory recommendations and it's not much of a burden at all. Would I buy it again? In a heartbeat.

5 out of 5 starsKia for me and mine!, 09/08/2018
2012 Kia Sedona EX 4dr Minivan (3.5L 6cyl 6A)
This is a great choice for minivan. My family fits very comfortably, and most often makes use of the 4 captain's chairs. We use the back for either the occasional 3rd row need, or for stowing lots of sports, shopping, and travel gear as necessary. The backup camera is fantastic and helps keep us safe when backing out of the driveway. There's plenty of room in the front console - it … really becomes mom's 2nd home on wheels sometimes. The fuel economy is fine, even with lots of back road driving thru the burbs. Overall I love the convenience and family friendly factors that the van brings us.
We have a limited number of reviews for the 2014 Kia Sedona, so we've included reviews for other years of the Sedona since its last redesign.
