Searching for your next Kia vehicle? In need of something perfect for the whole family? Allow us to recommend the all-new 2015 Kia Sedona. The stylish (yes, really) minivan was recently named by Cars.com as the winner in its Ultimate Minivan Challenge, a multi-day comparison test that brought together experts from Cars.com and PBS’ Motorweek.

Unlike some other stuffy car awards, the Ultimate Minivan Challenge combines results from industry professionals and real-world opinions from customers and consumers currently in the market for a minivan. Vehicles are evaluated based on different criteria such as technology, features, and drivetrains.

Testing included a 135-mile course on different road types to determine real world fuel economy. Each vehicle was driven back-to-back in order to compare ride, handling, comfort, and acceleration.

The 2015 Kia Sedona beat out a number of high-profile competitors, including the 2015 Toyota Sienna, 2015 Honda Odyssey, 2015 Dodge Grand Caravan, and 2015 Chrysler Town & Country.

The 2015 Kia Sedona was a true standout, earning particular praise from Cars.com editor-in-chief, Patrick Olsen for its “great ride combined with a quiet cabin and numerous innovative features.”

As you’d expect from a minivan of such award-winning stature, the 2015 Sedona is equipped with a number of features designed to make your life easier. EX models come with a Smart Power Liftgate, Dual Power Sliding Doors, Heated Outside Mirrors, and much more.

The Kia Sedona is quickly redefining the minivan category. It’s latest award follows a string of awards that include the J.D. Power Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) Award in the minivan segment and being named to Ward’s 10 Best Interiors list.
