Kia is the big loser in the latest round of car bumper crash tests.

[VO-NAT]
[SUPER=03-Washington, DC;]
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety says the 2002 Kia Sedona
incurred average damage of 24-hundred dollars in four bumper crash tests conducted at five miles an hour.
One test had the Sedona driven into a flat barrier... two air bags deployed, cracking
the windshield and the top of the instrument panel.
Damage came to more than four-thousand dollars.
The institute says the performance was the worst performance of any minivan it's tested.
Three other vehicles -- the 2002 models of the Subaru Impreza, Mitsubishi Lancer and Volvo S-40 -- all received a ``marginal'' rating, which is just one notch up from poor.
