Let me be clear. I am definitely not the authority on minivans because, well, I don’t have any youngins to cart around (you may want to check with real-life moms and dads who can better attest to the top family-haulers). BUT I must say that Kia’s Sedona is pretty baller.

Last week, Kia launched two all-new versions of its Sorento crossover utility vehicle in the beautiful, scenic Lake Tahoe.

Kia has done it again: produced a vehicle that provides enormous value for what the customer gets. As one of the fastest growing brands of the decade, it’s kind of Kia’s thing.

Last year was a big year for the Kia brand, with 625,000 units sold and the company’s six millionth vehicle sale in the U.S. market. Since its introduction in 1995, more than 700,000 Kia Sportages have been purchased, with the third generation seeing the most success.

Though it may not be obvious from the outside, Kia has completely overhauled its game-changing Optima from the inside.

Earlier this fall, I had the opportunity to attend Kia’s national media introduction of the new, all-electric 2015 Kia Soul EV and Sedona in sunny Dana Point, California. Views were breathtaking at the beautiful St.

Summertime is meant for road trips. In July, I traveled home to North Carolina to visit with my parents. The nearly seven-hour drive is a good way to decompress, and it’s equally good for getting to know a vehicle in real world conditions.

Who says that driving cars for a living isn’t fun? That’s right; no one. No one says that.

What better way to venture to outer space like Kia’s fan favorite hamsters than in a Solar yellow Soul?
