Kia Sedona
While most automakers are getting out of the minivan business, Kia is holding the line with its wide-based Sedona, which has seen its style updated for 2011. Its 271-hp 3.5-litre V6 is coupled with a six-speed automatic gearbox. Superbly spacious, this Sedona comes in a multitude of trim levels and can accommodate active families and all their baggage. It represents one of the best bargains in the minivan segment ant it comes with a great warranty.
