      The design of KIA Carnival is quite amazing. The front of the Carnival features a lifted bonnet that gives it a rugged feel akin to larger SUVs. This shift is evident in both its exterior and interior designs, which aim to provide a blend of functionality, luxury, and modern aesthetics.

      The KIA Carnival is designed with family comfort in mind, making it a strong contender in this segment. The front seats of the Carnival are particularly noteworthy, as they are among the most comfortable in the minivan category.

      This feature offers a virtual 360-degree view of the vehicle?s surroundings, aiding drivers in tight maneuvers such as parallel parking or backing up. The frontal and side curtain airbags effectively protected the driver?s head from potential injuries.

      This engine is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, which contributes to smooth acceleration and responsive gear changes. On slight acceleration the car runs like beast.
