2023 Kia Carnival

Key Features

All models come with a V6 front-wheel drive 3.5-litre powertrain. It can kick out 252 lb-ft of torque and 290 hp. You can expect to get 8km/L (city), 11km/L (highway), and 9.4km/L (combined).

The VIP lounge-type reclining seats and the front and rear air conditioning will offer exceptional comfort for your passengers. Depending on your chosen configuration, you’ll be able to seat seven to eight passengers comfortably. Compared to other minivans in its class, the 2023 Kia Carnival has been rated the best for cargo and passenger space.

There’s massive storage space available (1,138.3-litres) behind the third-row seats. You can also fold down the third row completely, adding another 2,970.4 litres of space if you want. There are also plenty of cleverly designed spaces to store small items. InstallIng a kiddie seat on any of the rear seats is easy and the power-sliding doors in the rear allow for easy access.

The EX trims include additional features such as sunshades in the second and third row, an upgraded cabin trim, a hands-free liftgate, and automatic triple-zone automatic climate control.

All 2023 trims come standard with USB ports in all rows, a six-speaker sound system, wireless mobile phone compatibility, and a 20.32cm full colour touchscreen. The EX model adds a navigation system, an eight-speaker sound system, satellite radio, and a larger 31.24cm touchscreen.
