DETAILED EDITORS' RATINGS

Dynamics

RATING

A strong motor and decent handling are bright spots for the Sedona, but the steering isn't crisp, and the transmission calibration is a bit weak.

Comfort

RATING

The Sedona offers a comfortable ride that could be improved by softer seat cushions. Second-row seats bottoms are also too short to accomodate long-legged passengers.

Function

RATING

A nice, simple center console offers well-marked buttons within easy reach.

Design/Build Quality

RATING

Materials could be higher quality. The look and feel is only average except for the faux wood trim which appears especially fake.


DETAILED PROFILE:

Family Friendly Less expensive than other minivans. Many safety features and a great warranty.

Cargo Hauler Cupholders and storage bins galore.

Comfortable Cramped third row seating.
