New 2024 Kia Carnival – What New does it have?
The Carnival is almost like a home on wheels because of how comfortable the seats are in this MPV. It has four rows with captain seats in second-row which are similar to Kia EV9. Kia offers the Carnival with a V6 Engine internationally, while it’s possible Kia could replace the V6 Engine in India with the 2.0 L Turbo Petrol Engine, however, it’ll retain the 2.2 L Diesel Engine that it used to offer with the 3rd Gen Carnival.
The Carnival has features like dual 10.25-inch display, ventilated and heated seats, a single-pane sunroof, and a panoramic sunroof, 360 Surround View Camera, Level 2 ADAS, and so much more. The Carnival doesn’t have any direct rivals as it’s the only MPV in the segment, and it’ll continue to be the best-selling MPV in its own category. We expect to learn more about the new India-bound Carnival in the coming weeks.
