2014 Kia Sedona: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026

The 2014 Kia Sedona returned to the U.S. lineup after skipping the 2013 model year, and its main change was a mild front-end refresh. It was not a full redesign; the seven-seat layout, V6 engine, and six-speed automatic carried over.
About the 2014 Kia Sedona
2nd generation (2006-2014 US), final year; light front-end refresh after a one-year model-year gap.
Kia positioned the Sedona as a value-focused family minivan with strong V6 power, flexible seating, useful cargo space, and a long list of standard safety and convenience features. The core pitch was simple: give families a practical seven-passenger van with comfort, utility, and peace of mind, while undercutting pricier rivals on feature value. Its main strengths were straightforward family usability, fold-flat cargo flexibility, and a generous equipment list for the class.
The 2014 Sedona is a seven-passenger minivan offered in practical LX and more comfort-focused EX forms. LX has second-row captain’s chairs, a fold-into-floor third row, Bluetooth, and rear parking sensors. EX adds leather-trimmed and heated front seats, power sliding doors, a power liftgate, automatic climate control, and a rearview camera.
