Looks to me like they borrowed a LOT of the engineering, hardware, etc. from
the newly redesigned Kia Sedona. I don't believe that is, at all, a bad
thing.

Any feedback on the "Entourage" mini van?

It's pretty much the same vehicle. Hyundai has the long wheelbase only. I
believe Kia only has the short wheelbase.

I just looked at one in FL. The door sticker actually states
"Manufactured for Hyundai by Kia Motors".
I was impressed with it, but this was a top of the line model with a
$31,000 sticker.

Two things about your comment:

-If you see the base van, with very few options, you will still be quite
impressed. The standard equipment list is very impressive, especially from
a safety standpoint.

-$31,000 for all that comes in it is quite a bargain compared to the other
minivans out there (sans Kia, of course). But with all the incentives
already on it, you won't be paying anywhere nears that for one if you want
it. This is a SERIOUSLY good value.

If this van could add AWD someday (the engine surely has enough power to
handle it), and establish a good reliability record (which I suspect it
will), soon there will be no reason for anyone to buy any other van, unless
they like spending money.
