Overview & Reviews

Minor upgrades are in store for the Sedona in its second year on the market. On the outside, buyers will find new taillights, and in the cabin, you'll note a new audio faceplate and a remote fuel-door release. The LX model gets a CD player, while the EX now comes with two keyless remotes, as well as additional leather on the armrests and lower portions of the seats. A trailer hitch is now available for all Sedonas.

• Excellent value, lots of cupholders and storage bins, solid build quality, good crash test scores, lengthy warranty coverage.

• Hefty curb weight, below-average gas mileage, missing a few key minivan features, potentially expensive to repair in minor collisions.

  Buick ride & quality at a Kia Price! - 2003 Kia Sedona
  By smulvey - January 1 - 10:00 am

  I replaced my Buick Park Avenue with 125,000 miles , with this KIA. The Buick suffered a sudden crack in the transmission flywheel. I found no difference in ride quality and the fit and finish frmo my Buick to my KIA. The acceleration is excellent too. My Buick got about 30 MPG and my KIA get 25 MPG. But with the extra seating options and front and rear a/c I love the KIA more. I like the fact I saved more than $ 15,000 off the Buick Price. I saved so much money I bought my wife a car too! A KIA SPECTRA !

  After 980 mile no problem. But the sunglass holder could not open on top. Need abs brakes in this van because I try both van with and without abs brakes. Speaker not loud enough in the front of van on the LX. Parts for this van might be hard to find.

  Wish it were better - 2003 Kia Sedona
  By ROYMAN - October 13 - 2:00 am

  I have a 02 Sedona EX, purchased 7/28/02 . I like many qualities about the vehicle but feel,that Kias quality control is non-existent. I have spent nearly as many days in the shop as in the driveway. Lumbar seat switch stuck on and depleted the battery, requiring using roadside assistance. Then power steering pump, A/C partial replacement, replacement of entire left rear trim panel, transmission irregularity and lastly, rust on the tailgate requiring repainting and 3 day tie up.(I live in Florida).Not a good experience at all. The mileage is horrific (which I knew when I bought it). Should have at least 16" wheels,

  Great Van, Bad Dealer (Royal Kia Tucson) - 2003 Kia Sedona
  By brihome - October 2 - 10:00 am

  My wife loves her van. This is a great vehicle for the price. My wife has recommended this van (with leather) to several friends, I just dont recommend Royal Kia in Tucson, AZ (unless you enjoy games and phone calls after purchase).

  Quality + Value + Need = Sedona - 2003 Kia Sedona
  By EzS - August 31 - 2:00 am

  Overall, Sedona is a very good van. Quality of components are good, drives well. Never felt slow. Interior comfort is superior compared to most minivans available in the market now. seats can be arranged many different ways. Night time driving is very comfortable. Headlights are very bright. Visibility is excellent even with the rear seat headrests in place. Only negative thing i can say about the van is the fuel economy. Trip range is approximately 270 miles on average on full tank of regular Gasoline. Not good. Averages around 16 mpg.

  Love it....runs great responds wonderfully. We bought it because of the standard package items that were additional on most all the other vans and love it because of the things that are not standard.
