One of the downsides in the review was that there's no built in vacuum cleaner like in the Odyssey. You can get a Dust Buster for about $50 and save several thousand dollars.
I've been driving a 2018 Sedona LX for a year and a bit and the only real difference is the newer models get an 8 speed transmission and I'm stuck with 6.
I like the inclusion of some knobs for audio and climate control, so you don't have to try and find a spot on the touch screen while driving. Also, the screen is big enough to read but doesn't protrude like somebody glued an iPad to the dash. Android and Apple phones can talk to the system so you can use Google maps for navigation.
I like the gear shift, as opposed to Honda's nightmare pushbutton shifter.
The engine is "only" 276 HP but it gets me on the highway without problem, and easily squeals the tires at traffic lights if I'm heavy footed.
Handling is pretty good for a minivan. I've driven a rental Grand Caravan on back roads and it was harrowing on corners. The Kia feels much more sure footed.
Fuel consumption is great on the highway and poor doing shopping and Dad taxi duties around town.
Definitely worth a look if you need a minivan.
