About the Kia Carnival
Kia's luxury limousine MPV with lounge-style seating, in diesel and hybrid form.
The Carnival is a large luxury MPV aimed at chauffeur-driven use and premium families. You can have a 2.2-litre diesel or a hybrid that combines electric and diesel, making around 190 bhp, in roomy seven-seat and chauffeur-focused layouts. Prices run from ₹56 lakh to ₹59.45 lakh, which puts it firmly in premium people-mover territory.
The highlights are reclining captain's chairs, dual sunroofs, large infotainment and rear-entertainment screens, powered sliding doors and a long features list. It goes up against the Toyota Vellfire, the top Innova Hycross trims and some luxury SUVs. It suits buyers and businesses who want limousine-grade rear-seat comfort with the practicality of a van-based MPV.
