Undoubtedly those purchasers will also take notice of the Sedona's healthy dimensions. Its overall length of 5,130 mm (202 in)

eclipses that of the Ford Freestar, the Honda Odyssey and the Toyota Sienna, but not the slightly longer Nissan Quest that no one seems to be buying anyway. Except for the Freestar, the Sedona's maximum cargo capacity of 4006.8 litres (141.5 cu-ft) is less than the others. Slightly less cargo capacity could be a welcome trade-off if it means more passenger space, and the new Sedona has plenty of that. Headroom up front is plentiful, although additional legroom for the driver would be an asset to those towering more than 183 cm (6 ft) above terra firma.

Even with the optional electrically adjustable pedals on my fully-loaded EX tester set as far back as possible, I could have used additional real estate to stretch my posts a little further, especially during long periods behind the wheel. Oddly, legroom on the passenger side is immense.
Moving about the Sedona's spacious cabin to access either the second or third row is quite easy and unimpeded. I was impressed with both the leg and headroom available in all rear seating positions as well as the associated comfort. During the drive route I spent some time sitting in the third row seat while my touring partner drove. I found the Sedona's rendition of this often cramped and cruel environ to be realistically comfortable, but given the choice the second row captains' were by far more conducive to passenger euphoria.
