The Ultimate Family Hauler? Rediscovering the Versatility of the 2025 Kia Carnival

The 2025 Kia Carnival stands apart in today's SUV-dominated landscape. This Life Utility Vehicle delivers exceptional functionality with striking style. Its bold exterior design and sophisticated interior transform what you should expect from a family vehicle.

Your family needs a vehicle that adapts to constantly changing requirements—from daily school runs to weekend adventures. The Carnival addresses these needs through intelligent design features and premium amenities that enhance comfort for everyone on board.

SUV-Inspired Design With Practical Advantages

The 2025 Carnival moves beyond traditional styling with its commanding presence. The bold front grille, streamlined lighting elements, and strong character lines create a sophisticated profile that attracts attention everywhere you go.

This thoughtful approach extends to practical elements like the easy-access sliding doors and smart-power liftgate that opens automatically when you stand behind it with your Smart Key. The liftgate closes and locks automatically when you walk away, making grocery runs and equipment loading easier when your hands are full.

Interior Space and Adaptability

Inside the Carnival, you'll find up to 4,110 litres (145.1 cu. ft.) of cargo space with folded seats—room for virtually anything your family activities require. The removable second-row seats and 60:40 split-folding third row create multiple configurations to accommodate everything from building supplies to sports equipment.

For passenger comfort, the available VIP Lounge Seating in the second row includes heated and ventilated, power-reclining captain's chairs with extending leg rests. The one-touch Relaxation Mode transforms routine drives into premium experiences for your passengers.

Technology That Serves Your Family

The Carnival's technology focuses on improving your daily driving experience. The available dual 12.3" TFT screens create a command centre that puts essential information and controls within easy reach.

The available Passenger View Monitor allows you to see rear-seat passengers without turning around, while the full display digital rear-view mirror provides clear visibility even when the vehicle is fully loaded with people and cargo.

Digital Key 2.0 turns your smartphone into a secure vehicle key, simplifying logistics when multiple drivers share the vehicle. You can grant temporary access to family members without sharing physical keys, making coordination simple.

Comfort For All Passengers

The Carnival prioritizes comfort throughout all three rows. The available dual-panel power sunroof brings natural light into the cabin, while features like pull-up sunshades and multiple USB charging ports ensure everyone stays comfortable during longer trips.

Third-row passengers enjoy easy-access seating with thoughtful amenities—a rarity in many vehicles. This attention to detail shows how the Carnival accommodates every passenger with equal consideration.

Safety Features That Protect Your Family

Using advanced sensing technology, the Carnival helps you stay aware of your surroundings and assists in preventing collisions. The available Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Junction Turning Function can detect potential collisions and apply brakes when needed, including during left turns at intersections.

Lane Following Assist helps keep you centered in your lane while maintaining safe distance from vehicles ahead. Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist provide additional protection during lane changes and backing up.

Performance With Practical Capability

The 2025 Carnival's 3.5L V6 GDI engine delivers 288 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, providing confident acceleration and responsive handling. The 8-speed automatic transmission ensures smooth operation in various driving conditions.

With a 3,500 lb maximum towing capacity (when properly equipped with trailer brakes), the Carnival handles a variety of trailers for additional versatility. Whether you're towing a small boat or camping trailer, this capability expands your family's adventure possibilities.
