Kia Sedona/Carnival Reviews 2013

The 2012 Kia Sedona makes a lot of sense for families who put budget before anything else, but reviewers recommend checking out the more up-to-date competition to see what you’re missing.

Reviewers praise the Sedona's wide range of standard features, stellar safety equipment ,and impressive powertrain warranty.

The 2009 Kia Sedona has great safety scores and a wide range of standard features at an appealing price. However, its performance does not stand out compared to other minivans.

The Kia Sedona delivers space for seven, great safety scores and an impressive warranty, all for a low price.

The 2011 Kia Sedona has as much practicality as other minivans, but a lower price.

Lots of content for the money still seems to be the philosophy behind the Sedona, and it works. It may be getting old, but this year’s improvements keep Kia’s minivan in the race.

It is functional, comfortable for everyone on board and offers peace of mind in the safety department.

In a very competitive field dominated by Honda and Toyota, the Sedona continues to receive high praise. It is often voted a Best Buy when it comes to value for the money.

It represents excellent value for money and couples features with size and practicality.

As a family hack, the Grand Carnival is surprisingly easy to drive, quick, smooth and very practical.

With a five-year unlimited kilometre warranty, it’s hard to criticise the best selling people mover in Australia on value for money, practicality or spaciousness.

Affordable, well built and with enough space to carry eight adults and the week’s groceries, the Kia Grand Carnival is the perfect large family mover.

With heaps of space, flexible seating and the punch of a big V6 engine it's no wonder the Kia Grand Carnival has become a family favourite.

As a value for money kid-carter the Kia has plenty to offer, but there are shortcomings that come with the lower pricetag. But this brand has shown an aptitude for listening and getting things right.

The Kia kicks a goal over similar rivals by combining lots and lots of space for the money, more equipment for less money, a V6 that gets it moving, and a bottom line with five-year warranty backup.

In the world of minivans, the 2011 Kia Sedona is a giant. It offers almost all the features, power and safety of the best minivans, but it costs thousands of dollars less.

The 2012 Kia Sedona is a well-equipped, well-regarded minivan capable of matching the horsepower and safety ratings of the segment's top sellers.

Along with a smooth ride, even on rough roads, it means the Sedona is a comfortable and relaxed long distance family car. It was made even better in January 2010 when a seven-year warranty replaced the previous three year scheme.

The 2008 Kia Sedona is one of the least expensive minivans on the market, but inexpensive is different than cheap.

Of the available minivans, the 2009 Kia Sedona is one of the most affordable, but it doesn't skimp on what counts for families.

The 2010 Kia Sedona is one of the most affordable minivans, but most practically minded families won't know the difference.

The aging Kia Sedona still offers the usual minivan virtues of people-carrying and cargo-toting, but there are newer, more flexible, safer choices.

It’s better to drive than you might expect, and has no trouble with a load on board. It’s a big unit for cramped city streets but manoeuvrable enough, and no-one inside will be complaining.

Sure, that new engine is better than the one it replaces and the sliding doors are a real plus, but there are other MPVs that are better to drive, more practical and, although not as powerful, cheaper.
