Pros: What do you like about 2009 Kia Sedona?
Smooth and responsive acceleration.
Plenty of interior room and very functional design.

Cons: How would you improve 2009 Kia Sedona?
Make mud guards standard.
Move the four-way flasher button - it is right in the middle of the dash controls. I often turn it on while resting my hand to make radio selections.

2009 Kia Sedona Review:
Great functional vehicle at a reasonable price. Good warranty program. Not a cross-over, but a real vehicle like they used to make.

Pros: What do you like about 2009 Kia Sedona?
LX Extended. We were amazed at its performance and fuel mileage. Roomy enough to place our large mobility scooter in through the rear using a manual folding metal ramp. Folding seats into floor a 5 star. Using a manual folding ramp was not bad after we developed a plan using a second person. The interior, roomy. Surprised at how many bags plus the scooter we fit into vehicle.

Cons: How would you improve 2009 Kia Sedona?
Back lit of buttons.
Drivers seat 1-2" wider.
Knee support drivers side for longer trips.

2009 Kia Sedona Review:
We rented this Sedona LX from Hertz for an extended road trip, 1500 miles round trip. We were amazed at its performance and fuel mileage. We were able to place our large mobility scooter in through the rear with a manual folding metal ramp. Accessible vehicle rental companies wanted, we estimated approx total $730 dollars for this type of handicap rental vehicle having an electrical ramp. In addition, additional per mileage charges exceeding allowed miles per day. We paid a total of $402 with unlimited mileage using Hertz with AAA.

Using the manual folding ramp was not bad after we developed a plan. The interior I gave a four because of the, A) driver’s seat. It was OK but could be 1-2” wider and have a kneepad to support it on long trips. I used a cushion and my back pillows due to my spinal injury and travel was a breeze. B)The non-illumination of certain controls on steering wheel. We are now in the market for a minivan and the Sedona is at the top of the list. All we have to do is install a comparable lift for the mobility scooter. Prices we have seen are around $14999 to $15999 for the 2008 models.
