Performance Specs
Every 2019 Kia Sedona trim available at Classic Kia Carrollton is outfitted with the same powertrain. Under the hood of the automaker’s minivan is a naturally aspirated 3.3-liter, V-6 engine that is attached a newly developed eight-speed automatic transmission. It will make 276 horsepower and 248 pound-feet of torque. Kia’s front-wheel-drive system will be standard equipment. Every version of the 2019 model of the Kia Sedona will be able to tow 3,500 pounds. On the other side of the coin is the 2019 Honda Odyssey with a slightly larger V-6 engine of its own. The Honda minivan does make a bit more horsepower than the Kia Sedona. However, the Kia vehicle is able to tow more than its Honda competitor’s first four steps up its trim ladder. The Odyssey’s top two models equal the towing capacity of the 2019 Sedona.
