2006 Kia Sedona

By far, Best Van for the money

By GGuy (OH) on Wednesday, May 02, 2012

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 7,600

Pros: "Outstanding value for the money!"

Cons: "Hard plastic interior, not-so-comfy front seats"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"While Kia hasn't lavished a lot of cutting-edge styling on the Sedona, it works, and it goes (quickly). Some of the ratings listed here describing mpg or quality issues seem to be from older model Sedonas, but judging from my experience thus far after a year of ownership, the 2011 model has matured into a fully competitive alternative to overpriced Hondas, Toyotas, and Chryslers. My EX model features a sticker price lower than the sticker I found in my used 99 T"

"We have five teenagers including one that drives it. We don;t have time to baby it and, other than needing tires and breaks every couple of years, it's holding up well."

Exceptionally pleased!

By GFrom (KY) on Sunday, April 01, 2012

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 109,000

Pros: "Roomy, power and handling all excellent"

Cons: "Busy console, mileage 18 city"

Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10

"My favorite two features are the power and the handling. The power has pulled me out of highway bind-ups andfast accel when pulling onto a busy road. With good tires, the vehicle holds the road well in tight, quick meneuvering. The sound system is awesome. Very roomy. The console is a bit busy with controls, mileage is about 17 in the city, even with moderate driving habits. Over all, a very good vehicle."
