It was just two weeks ago that we saw our <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/07/31/2015-kia-sedona-minivan-spy-shots/">first glimpse</a> of the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/kia/sedona/">2015 Kia Sedona</a> testing in full camouflage, but now <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/kia/">Kia</a> has stripped away some of the heavy cladding to give us an even better idea what its new minivan will look like. As we pointed out before, the next Sedona doesn't use as many design cues from the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/01/10/kia-kv7-concept-detroit-2011/">2012 Kia KV7</a> as we initially hoped, but it should be interesting enough to stand out from the current crop of minivans.<br />
<br />
Even though most of the body is still covered with the black and white pattern and the side doors still have cladding, these spy shots show off plenty of details about the new Sedona. Starting up front, Kia gave its minivan a more upright shape that we've seen a lot of on current Kia designs, while the reduced camo also makes the van's new side window shape more obvious. This pinched daylight opening (DLO) along the side is the same as what we saw on the KV7, and the window line dips back down again for the liftgate glass. While we're focused on the rear of the Sedona, that liftgate spoiler looks a lot like what we're used to seeing on the back of a <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/porsche/cayenne/">Porsche Cayenne</a>.<br />
<br />
Kia has still yet to announce when its new minivan will be unveiled, but as things seem to be pretty far along in development, we'd expect to see something on the 2015 Sedona fairly soon.<p style="padding:5px;backgr ound:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/08/15/next-gen-kia-sedona-spy-shots/">Next-gen Kia Sedona drops more camo, shows KV7 cues</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblo g</a> on Thu, 15 Aug 2013 09:30:00 EST.
