Re-writing the People Mover rules.
The Carnival is quite unlike any car we’ve crafted before. Fusing SUV-inspired design with an unstoppable attitude, the Carnival uses progressive styling that boasts an aesthetic like no other.
Featuring a luxurious interior for eight, lavishly equipped with next-generation Kia technology, the Carnival lets you and your passengers travel in grand comfort and style. We didn't just build a People Mover. We upgraded it to a Grand Utility Vehicle.

Design
A design revolution.
One look at the athletic shape of the Carnival and you know it will never back down. The strong Tiger nose grille and wide stance give it a commanding presence. While the geometrical contoured LED headlights create a more aggressive finish.
Prominent SUV-like wheel arches and an athletic shoulder line combine with a sharp roofline with stylish roof rails that presents spacious accommodations to front and rear passengers.
Beauty is in the detail. The available 19” Black Alloy Wheels on the Platinum grade take the visual appeal of the Carnival to the next level.
A slim rear harmoniously blends the rear LED combination lights, while the rear wipers remain hidden until in use, giving the rear a clean and modern impression.
