Sedona debuts as price leader among new minivans
The 2002 Kia Sedona arrives with a starting price of 19,590 including destination charges, making it the lowest priced new minivan in the United States. It offers standard V6 power, five speed automatic, air conditioning, power features, and seating for seven, while remaining competitively sized against rivals like the Chrysler Voyager, Dodge Caravan, and Honda Odyssey. The EX trim test model lists at 21,950 with options pushing under 24,000, and engine output sits at 195 horsepower with 218 lb-ft torque, presenting a sprightly drive despite marginally smaller rear cargo and legroom versus top rivals.
