Thanks to significant upgrades inside and out, the 2021 Kia Sorento is more than a match for rivals such as the Ford Explorer, Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander and Volkswagen Atlas.

The 2022 Kia Carnival’s starting price is $1,700 more than the outgoing 2021 Sedona.

IIHS has released its list of vehicles that qualify for either of its two awards, Top Safety Pick and Top Safety Pick Plus, for 2021.

For 2022, the Kia Sedona is reborn as the Carnival, a name used globally in the past and now also in the U.S.

The J.D. Power 2021 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Survey ranks automakers by the frequency of their problems per 100 vehicles and also awards individual 2018 models dependability awards in various vehicle classes.

As expected following the reveal of the global-market Carnival last summer, Kia’s minivan will also be named Carnival in the U.S., replacing the Sedona name.

Along with crash tests, safety features and accommodation of family members and their gear, we consider family-friendly features and overall excellence.
