2018 Chrysler Pacifica vs. 2018 Kia Sedona

The 2018 Chrysler Pacifica reinvents every notion of minivan performance. Calling on up to 287 hp and 262 lb-ft of torque from a legendary 3.6L V6 engine ensures crisp, spirited performance whether cruising from Anderson to Red Bluff or navigating the center of Shasta Lake City. You’ll also make up to 19 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway as standard.

The Kia Sedona V6 only makes up to 276 hp and 248 lb-ft of torque, and standard mileage comes in at 18 and 24. That’s less power and less miles.

Seating Options and Cargo Capacity

Offering Class-Exclusive Easy Tilt Seating and a Class-Exclusive Stow ‘n Go® Seating and Storage System, the Chrysler Pacifica can shift between 243 possible seating configurations.

It also offers more space than the Kia Sedona:

• Front Leg Room: Up to 41.1 inches in the Chrysler vs. 40.9 in the Kia.
• Front Head Room: Up to 40.1 inches in the Chrysler vs. 39.8 in the Kia.

If the kids make a mess between Chico and Corning, simply use the Chrysler’s Stow ’N Vac® to get things tidy – it’s the segment’s most powerful vacuum.

Interior Luxury and Features

The Chrysler Pacifica interior is in a class of its own when it comes to onboard technology. Here are just a few features beyond the scope of a Kia Sedona:

• Dual 10.1-inch HD touchscreens with a Blu-ray™ player, dual HDMI inputs, wireless headphones, wireless streaming, and available games and apps.
• 20-speaker Harman Kardon® premium surround sound system.
• 4G LTE Wi-Fi Hotspot to connect with up to eight devices at once.
