Do-it-all minivan

The minivan combines a large interior with the smooth ride of a car, and it's truly the best of both worlds. For the 2014 model year, the seven-passenger Sedona has a standard 3.5L V6 under the hood of every trim level. It makes 269 horsepower and sends power to the front wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission. You can find a 2014 Sedona on our lots, available in either two trim levels, LX and EX. Both come very well-equipped, so you can find just the right version for your family's needs.

5 reasons to buy the 2014 Kia Sedona

1. Great standard features 

Take a look at the base 2014 Sedona LX, and you'll find a lot to like about it. You'll get standard exterior features like 16-inch steel wheels, foglights, rear privacy glass, roof rack rails, and rear parking sensors. You'll get standard air-conditioning with rear controls, a 60/40-split third-row seat, keyless entry, cruise control, Bluetooth® phone connectivity, and a six-speaker sound system on the interior. 

2. Tons of space 

A minivan works so well because of the cavernous interior space. The Sedona seats seven, and even with all the seats in place, you'll have an impressive 32.2 cu-ft of cargo space. That number jumps to 80 cu-ft of storage space with the third row folded and an incredible 141.5 cu-ft of cargo space with all seats down. 

3. EX trim upgrades 

The LX trim is great, but if you want more comfort and convenience, check out the 2014 Sedona EX. The top-spec trim adds the "Power Package" (optional on the LX), which adds 17-inch alloy wheels, automatic headlights, dual power-sliding side doors, a rearview camera, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. You'll also get even more, including features like leather upholstery, heated front seats, heated mirrors, power rear vent windows, a power liftgate, and dual-zone automatic climate control. 

4. Power and control 

All trim levels of the 2014 Sedona have a 3.5L V6 that makes 269 horsepower and 246 lb-ft of torque. That's plenty of power to get up to speed, but the Sedona has a lot more going for it. It has standard antilock brakes, traction and stability control, front-seat side-impact airbags, side-curtain airbags, active front head restraints, and rear parking sensors. 

5. Optional extras  

In addition to the aforementioned Power package that is available on the LX, the top-spec EX has some available upgrades as well. Search our lots for the Luxury package that will get you a sunroof, rain-sensing windshield wipers, power-adjustable pedals, and a driver's seat memory feature. If you want more technology, a navigation system is also optional, which also gets you a great eight-speaker Infinity® sound system.
