How did the Sienna and the Carnival get the same IIHS Safety score of 4, if the Sienna got ratings of Good, Moderate, and Good on the small overlap, moderate overlap, and side crash tests respectively and the Carnival got a Good, Moderate, and Average??? The Sienna also has a better headlight rating of Good vs the Carnival’s average With half a point of difference between 1st and 2nd place, this would have made a difference!
Comment from : @diggitydan16

The best part about the Kia is the standard five year, 60k bumper to bumper warranty versus the standard 3 year 36k warranty

Great reviews except for the actual mechanics of vechilesbrbrInjection types br4 cylinder engines too small ti pull all that weight, loaded weight, plus any type of towingbrbrIssues with turbo or eco boost systemsbrbr12 V batteries too smallbrbrEct, ect brbrVans do not hold resale value like other models

What about the Dodge Grand Caravan ?

Leonids and friends
Comment from : @diwamoto9237

I don't care about torque & towing, but I do care the mpg and space Sienna can not get the 2nd row seats out, so disappointing
Comment from : @jamesamber6009

I like all of the minivans
Comment from : @AaryanK-w5c

I wish SUVs have sliding doors at the back somehow

Rented a Kia Carnival for road trip to Utah and back to Florida Did 2 weeks seeing 8 national parks and meteor Crater Van ran great and really thought about buying one I'm still on the fence since I bought a Toyota tundra to tow our RV but recently sold the RV and debating whether to trade Tundra for this van
Comment from : @Dan-ger82

I got 2017 kia sedona and 245k miles on it still drives very smooth and very comfortable ride everyday 👍

What about kids perks?
Comment from : @toyotafan4life

Why do you say Toy-oda?
Comment from : @histydickens1376

we are thinking of buying a kia carnival so is the kia carnival have a good safety rating too
Comment from : @gamesuper458

No way that the Pacifica reliability is a 1 and the Kia is a 3 You guys are picking numbers out of the air
Comment from : @babyloobibovski2947

Prefiero Honda Odyssey
Comment from : @migeormoorellana3162

I love the carnival 😍 but the resell value is bs😮
Comment from : @Francodetodounpoco

Sienna has the best MPG, best resale, best safety, best selling mini-van by far, AWD, standard hybrid etc… Now why would the Kia beat the Sienna if more people buy the Sienna and more people are willing to pay more for a used Sienna?
Comment from : @jayb7675

Currently have a 2017 Pacifica, after 60000 miles have had one minor repair (wheel sensor under $300)Have done road trips hauling furniture stow & go is amazing The level of tech and ride quality is amazing! Also very responsive engine! Would buy again!
Comment from : @joeschweighardt

Here is the thing I wanted to have AWD, a hybrid, and 8 seats Only the Sienna does that and only in the basic LE trim So that's what I got hope it was a good choice - first time buying a new car in my entire life and I have been driving for almost 3 decades
Comment from : @thisismonitor4099

Why do these guys sound the same?
Comment from : @georgianborat

Having the Carnival at 1 is a huge disservice to everyone watching It is easily behind the Honda and Toyota It looks better from the outside and has good tech up front but it is worse in every category after that
Comment from : @bmaida2778

Which minivan offers rear TV?
Comment from : @VickyKumar-hh5cb

😂😂I ain't buying no freakin kia 🤣🤣🤣
Comment from : @michaelWells-ef9bx

😂😂-What do you mean i can't take the seats 💺 out? i own a sawzall and plenty of blades- that's the first thing i did with my current Sienna- now it's a toyota pickup truck with a shell 🐚
Comment from : @michaelWells-ef9bx

Why cant car manufacturers just make a vehicle without every possible automated power this power that??? Next we'll have a power air fryer and an integrated washing machine for $70k

Comment from : @dirkpalmer1067

Pointless having the Toyota as in Canada you have a year wait Went to a dealership that had a used XLE with low mileage yet they wanted $9000 more than a new one Never going to happen How is Toyota still having inventory problems since 2021?
Comment from : @rewind1960

Stow and Go turns your minivan into two minivansone to haul peopleone to haul stuff That little trick is worth all the dials and buttons put together
Comment from : @jscottupton

? You said the Sienna seats can’t be removed, but I’ve seen so many van life videos in Sienna’s with both rows removed It’s been at the top of my list Are seats removable only on pre-hybrid models?
Comment from : @cathleenjudge1424

One thing on my top ten list of important things is overall appearance (inside and out) I think the Toyota should be docked majorly for being only Hybrid Having no gas option would make me run away from the Sienna Also, stow n go option should give a MASSIVE boost in value for any minivan Any minivan nowadays that can't have all rear seats removed or stowed into the floor is like a dinosaur I love my 2019 Pacifica and wouldn't trade it for any of the other 3 minivan options in this video BTW, the 360 degree camera view is a MUST for minivans! I LOVE having that in my Pacifica! It's such a valuable safety feature that it should raise the safety score for this van way more than shown in this video
Comment from : @Jeremiah17seven

Weird question: which driver's seat was closest to the ground? I'm 5'2 in a wheelchair so the lower it is, the easier it is to transfer out of my chair and into the driver's seat!
Comment from : @courtneystamper3247

I have had an opportunity to rent a 2025 Pacifica Plug-in Hybrid for 2 weeks during our vacation last month I'm surprised how smooth and quiet it is The V6 36L combined with Hybrid and Plugin technology made this van a fast acceleration while keeping 32MPG in AVERAGE (Without plug-in, we didn't use it) My wife loves it, and so do I We have a Honda Odyssey minivan but the Pacifica is far better
Comment from : @Tuan-zj3ie

Odyssey #1 best quality all around engine and interior materials Got mine with lifetime power train warranty Yeah the looks is old, but quality of materials #1
Comment from : @IvanShcherban

The motor is bad in the Kia

Comment from : @shilabratabarua7150

I'm waiting and watching for #1 choice, a Tesla luxury minivan with a 500-600 mile battery range Maybe will consider others such as Audi or possibly MB if they meet my requirements All of these minivans you have been rating are transitional products that will be outdated in 1-2 years and expensive to operate
Comment from : @ca-lt1fc

Stow ‘n Go wins all day Once you have it , you will understand Great for camping and hauling I don’t like Chrysler reliability though
Comment from : @jjhatnm

Sienna
Comment from : @equalheatiscool9267

I just bought the 2025 Kia Carnival Prestige sx in the v6 NA So far so good My first minivan that I wasn't even looking for We were about to buy a 25 Ford Explorer when we went to Costco there was a carnival that I never even heard of on display and my wife loved it right away So needless to say she test-drove both and well you know the rest Happy wife happy life
Comment from : @darkknightlight

that chart blocking 1/4 of the screen is extremely annoying
Comment from : @Ivan__77

I have a family of eight Would the Mercedes passenger Sprinter be a better choice than the minivans? One of my family members is in a wheelchair, and I also have two babies
Comment from : @BenzaReels

I just watched a video that said do not buy the Kia Carnival 😑
Comment from : @debbriggs5811

There is no way the Kia has anyone beat on reliability Those motors are all junk and you’ll be lucky to get 100k out of them

Toyota Sienna wait times are 36-42 months in Canada is that even an option?
Comment from : @sharad99088

That Kia isn't even a minivan Sliding doors don't make an SUV a minivan
Comment from : @yourmomsdildodrawer

Hey man! brYes you who picked Sienna brYour brother loves to look cool and say/choose whatever makes him different than others! brThank you for being a rational guy here!
Comment from : @Nicolai_Chirnev

A hybrid option would be idiotic for my family since we live at 7,200’ of elevation and the engine’s horsepower drops to about 70 Makes it dangerous to pass vehicles on the highways
Comment from : @johnbatson8779

Can u let us or me know what are some of the best vans for vanlife Rather new or oldas far as more space after seats are removedand how wide of a bed that can be converted or just space to lay Just asking or it can become a nother channel for u for vanlifersagiain new old ❤❤❤❤
Comment from : @Fiestylilmama-j9o

I'm a senior citizen who's having to downsize from a 2000 E150 Conversion van with 200,000 miles that I've owned for 25 years My mandate is that the next vehicle be a minivan with all the current safety features Which vehicle will make over 100,00 miles?
Comment from : @jjcastleberry3662

My behaviorist is looking for a 2025 Toyota Sienna in the next weeks
Comment from : @nickabbatiello828

I think all cars have inflated prices right now Even used ones The Pacifica has the best configuration of space but the quality, durability and resale value (let's not talk about the bad service) kill it Personally, I don't like the Sienna because of the hybrid only model and the price Honda needs to speak to Kia regarding design and technology and Kia needs help in the quality and durability department In other words, I have not been able to decide what to buy because of price and a lack of convenience, price and technology balance in one model I refuse to pay luxury SUV prices for a minivan and the SUVs don't have the space I need
Comment from : @ministerioscristianosefata7838

I can’t believe the rated the Carnival as number 1! No way!
Comment from : @carloscastelo861

The only one is Honda / Toyota
Comment from : @Rdtrmb

Honestly, everyone has their favorite brand of vehicle and they all have their pros and cons It is all a matter of what one can afford

Excellent! Always great content from you guys Thank you
Comment from : @ChristopherBalish

Which car has the best ride though I tried the sienna And the Pacifica so far And I have to say the awd Pacifica was much smoother Handled Road imperfections and potholes mich better
Comment from : @Newdude1-p8k

The reason you buy a van is to transport people FAMILY IS #1 KIA HAS THE WORST SAFETY KILLED IN ACTION The rest doesn't matter near as much How do you give it a 4 on SAFETY?
Comment from : @Paulviewrealestate

I have to disagree with these gentlemen I have spent 20 yrs as a master tech 15 yrs at a dealership group with every car brand abd the ladt 5 i have ran a semi repair shop My wife lives Minuvans We have owned Toyotas and Hondas I would never recommend anyone to buy a Pacifica (Call your local dealership or do your research and you will find out why) Currently, Chrysler has a transmission issue (like at 50,000 to 65,000) they are exploding They are also on back order meaning they aren't even available Not to mention the electrical issues with rear entrainment staying on and draining your battery or turning on for no reason Kia isn't any better their engibes are junk (Yes They have tge 100k warranty) but they wont help when your engine goes out at 120k and they won't help you I have witness it time and tine again Hell i have had a customer who did all the maintenance on her 2018 Kia Sportage and at 98,000 mikes, it started burning 2 quarts of oil, Kia diened her claim because she wasnt tge orginal owner She purchased the 2018 in 2020 with 40,000 miles She did every recommended service, and Kua told her, since she is not the original owner tgen she has no warranty Trust me, stay away from Chrsler and Kia they look nice, but looks are deceiving
Comment from : @erikmorris609

People make such a big deal out of fuel economy but honestly considering what people will pay to get a different color or better stereo or just different model it's hard to see it mattering for a lot of people getting a $50k, $60k van over another
Comment from : @SuperMrgentleman

stow&go rules
Comment from : @1voiceofstl

I looked at them all TheToyota is great, but could not bring myself to buy another CVT We had a 2016 Corolla and both my wife and I hated it We have an 09 Civic (manual trans) and an 09 Kia Spectra which we both prefer After several months of looking and debating, the Kia Carnival Hybrid was our top choice and we are not disappointed Right now it is averaging 348 mpg
Comment from : @phitchr

What made me choose the Carnival over the Sienna is that you can only get a bench seat on the lowest 2 trims on a Sienna Having 4 kids would take away extra storage space
Comment from : @jonwillard2552

Just starting the video and seeing that two guys are doing the review I can only hope they are not going to be talking about baby seats and places to store a purse, but how many sheets of plywood each can carry Ill report back how it came out

Honda Odyssey deserves #1 spot
Comment from : @JohnnyJiuJitsu

I'm in the market, so we happened to have rented the Pacifica Hybrid for a few weeks while our other car was in the shop following an accident Holy crap, the Pacifica is a piece of junk! Engine is weak and sounds janky; dash instrumention is awful (hybrid is very different from non-hybrid, fyi, and the hybrid displays completely irrelevant information); there are 4(!) non-illuminated rotary knobs that all are co-located to control the transmission, air conditioning, radio, and volumewhat could possibly go wrong?; the FWD is really annoying in the snow last week since it keeps spinning one tire trying to get grip only to have the traction control system freak out; bad layout of buttons (hidden gas door button, obscured on/off switch, etc); really confusing and distracting radio and navi displays; and the materials used throughout generally feel cheap We were ready to buy one based on the reviewslession is to RENT your potential future car (Turo, rental agency, borrow from a friend, etc) before you make a purchase
Comment from : @adrianmurray6600

Here in ontario canada, I pre-ordered a sienna xse awd back in April 2024 They told me it can be up to a two year wait We have time, but if needing something sooner, a sienna would not be it Availability is terrible, and if there is one available, the markups are at least 10k over Used ones here are the same price as new but have would almost have 30,000 kms on it For something that is in demand, i wish they would have more Also, toyota has now gave their 25 hybrid engine to mazda for their cx-50 Why not focus on their own Our second choice would be the Carnival EX Love the look, but worried about the reliability I know its a hit or miss
Comment from : @robertdiaz1155

so you pick the mini van that is the most suv ish,,,, well thats a fail lol that would be last on the list of mini vans
