Kia Motors America has announced the Sedona minivan is now on sale at your local dealership.



Kia Motors America has announced the Sedona minivan is now on sale at your local dealership. For the 2014 Model Year, the 7-seat Sedona MPV received a subtle styling makeover and several trim upgrades. Styling-wise, the 2014 Kia Sedona adopts a slightly updated signature grille, revised bumper, as well as new lighting (including standard fog lamps) and 17-inch alloy wheels. Starting at $26,750, the seven-passenger minivan is available in LX and EX trim levels. Base 2014 Kia Sedona LX hosts a plethora of standard features including LED lights, fog lights, air conditioning, cruise control, second-row captain’s chairs, and 16-inch steel wheels. Furthermore, the LX model also offers keyless entry, satellite radio compatibility, Bluetooth hands-free and streaming-audio connectivity. All Sedonas also get a storage console for iPads and smart tablets. The Sedona EX gets standard leather-trimmed seats, front seat heaters, automatic climate control, 17-inch alloy wheels, leather seats, heated driver’s seat, roof rack, and a rearview camera display. The 2014 Kia Sedona EX starts at $31,750 (shipping included). Kia Sedona is powered by the 3,5L V6 engine rated at 269 hp and 246 lb-ft of torque. The unit is paired to a 6-speed automatic transmission, which sends the power to the front wheels.

2014 Kia Sedona News, Rumors, Release Date

Kia owners and enthusiasts in the United States and elswhere around the world are sure to have mixed feelings about the latest news concerning the 2014 Kia Sedona. As many of you know, Kia have decided to remove the aging 7-seat minivan model from its US lineup, which means there will be no 2013 model. That might very well come as a blow for those folks looking for a spacious 7-seat minivan that is truly affordable, but it really should be viewed as a breather as Kia skips a year in order to prepare a radically redesigned model in 2014. The latest news in the industry so far is that the all new Kia Sedona will be based on the KV7 concept that was put on display during the 2011 North American Auto Show. If that’s the case, expect the 2014 Kia Sedona MPV to be the most stylish minivan on the market. Kia is saying very little about the next-generation Sedona MPV. Most of their attention has been on the upcoming Forte sedan and their other newer vehicles that have been recently showcased at various auto shows across the US. That should not be viewed as a sign that a new Sedona isn’t in their plans, especially since Kia has already said they are committed to the minivan segment. It’s for that reason that many believe that the new Sedona might very well be based on the 2-year old KV7 concept. Kia has built something of a reputation for bringing stunning concept cars to market, so it stands to reason that the KV7 will have at least some influence on the 2014 Sedona. Since this will be a new generation, we can expect that Kia will add a whole new list of premium features and safety systems to the Sedona. One of the most common features found on modern Kia cars is the UVO infotainment system, which allows drivers access to music streaming, handsfree calling, and can also come with navigation technology. 2014 Sedona = KV7 Concept? Kia KV7 concept vehicle was roundly applauded for the way it rethought the minivan. The exterior displayed the tiger-nose grille that is now part of the Kia signature. The exterior shape of the KV7 concept somewhat echoes that of the super cool Kia Soul, thanks to a wide stance and a boxy profile that were deisgned to deliver headroom and cargo space. The KV7 also featured some really stylish touches, such as LED fog lights and turn signals, lights in the rear that span the entire vehicle, and killer 20-inch alloy wheels. Fingers are crossed that those features will make their way to a production model. Kia Sedona Engines, Release Date There is a ton of power under the hood of the Kia KV7, with a Theta II 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine that cranks out up to 274 horsepower. This is another feature that many folks would love to see carried over the the next generation Kia Sedona. Kia has yet to release the official launch date of the 2014 Sedona minivan, while latest rumors suggest that the redesigned model is set to be unveiled at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show in November.

2014 Kia Cadenza goes on sale this month

2014 Kia Cadenza goes on sale this month priced from $35,100* - http://aol.it/11MbhEc



Kia's sedan lineup is about to get much more luxurious with the addition of the new Cadenza and range-topping Quoris models, but the Amanti-replacing 2014 Cadenza will be the first to hit dealers this month with a starting price of $35,100 (*not including $800 for destination). For those keeping record, that's more expensive than Hyundai's version of this car, the Azera, and about $1,000 more than the Genesis, but it sounds like the new front-wheel-drive Kia will be getting a few more advanced features than its Hyundai counterpart.

In base form, the Cadenza comes standard with leather seating, navigation and a premium Infinity 12-speaker audio system, and the $3,000 Luxury Package adds nappa leather seats with a ventilated driver's seat, a seven-inch thin-film transistor (TFT) display, heated rear seats, power tilt and telescoping steering column, adaptive HID headlights and a panoramic sunroof. On models already equipped with the Luxury Package, buyers can also add on the Technology Package, which includes adaptive cruise control, blind spot detection, lane departure warning and hydrophobic glass on the front doors – previously, Kia stated that the Cadenza would be getting this water-repelling technology on the windshield, but this press release specifies that it will be applied to the front side windows. And if these two packages aren't enough luxury for you, Kia's cherry on top is a no-cost White Package that adds white nappa leather seats, woodgrain trim and a premium headliner.

All in, the 2014 Cadenza will run $41,100 with every option box checked, so we can only imagine how much the Qurois is going to cost when it makes its debut. Scroll down for the press release detailing the pricing for the new Cadenza. Attachment
