The Saris Bones trunk mount bike rack # SA805BL is not a fit for the 2018 Kia Sedona. But Saris does list the Guardian # SAR93FR for 2 bikes or # SAR43FR for 3 bikes as a fit for your van. It is recommended to either use Hatch Huggers # SA3035 in place of the lower straps OR to close the standard hooks inside of the rear hatch when mounting the bike rack.
If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) then I recommend using bike adapter bar # 64005. This will allow you to carry those bikes more level and will provide better ground clearance. I have linked a video showing how the adapter works.
