Used 2018 Kia Sedona SX-L Van For Sale In Columbia SC

The front-wheel-drive Sedona has long been at the forefront of the minivan segment and the third-generation model is the best yet. The minivan features a wide stance and cab-forward look, with a front end that integrates the grille found across the Kia lineup. The Sedona rides on a chassis that Kia says is 36-percent stiffer than any other van in its class, while the body is comprised mostly of advanced high-strength steel and pressed hardened steel for excellent rigidity and collision protection.
The Sedona features an independent rear suspension and uses amplitude selective dampers, and an isolated rear sub-frame, the new Sedona benefits from improved handling. Equally important, the Sedona is quiet, thanks to wheelhouse padding, double-sealed sliding doors and extra sound deadening in the engine compartment.

A direct-injected 3.3L V6 powers the Sedona. With variable induction and continuously variable valve timing, the engine produces 276 horsepower and 248 pound-feet of torque. The engine is mated to a 6-speed Sport-Matic transmission and delivers 18 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway.
