The word “sexy” isn’t often associated with the minivan segment–unless you’re talking about the 2016 Kia Sedona. This popular minivan takes the stereotypical design of its segment, adding sleek lines and a sultry silhouette that is hard to forget. The chrome accents throughout the Sedona’s body—not to mention the standard 19-inch chrome wheels—adds a touch of sophistication, merely hinting at the comfort inside the minivan’s cabin.
