Price: This category puts everything into perspective. First off, the Sedona's base price of $24,595 is only $835 less expensive than the Dodge Caravan. That said the Kia comes with more base features including a more powerful engine mated to a 5-speed transmission. Add a 5-star crash rating and a 5-year/100,000 km bumper-to-bumper warranty compared to the other two models 3-year/60,000 km comprehensive and 5-year/100,000 km powertrain warranties and the Kia starts to shine. Putting things even more into perspective, it's easy to see why the Honda scored highest in 4 categories when you factor in its high base price. This puts it into a league that the Kia doesn't even venture into when it is fully loaded - including optional leather. Advantage: Kia

Conclusion: Looking back over each category, the Sedona only took one category. While it would be hard to call the Sedona a clear winner when comparing it to its formidable competition, it's important to remember that we need to compare apples to apples. The Honda is the sports car of minivans. It's a premium product at a premium price. The Dodge is best when loaded with features that the Kia simply doesn't offer. For the money the Kia is a clear winner. Advantage: Kia
