Kia Motors has raised the bar once again with the unveiling of the fourth generation Kia Carnival, showcasing not only a revamped exterior but also the stunning interior details that promise a new era of luxury and innovation. Set to hit the Indian market next year, the latest Carnival boasts advanced features, impressive engine options, and a design that redefines opulence in the automotive realm.
The fourth-generation Carnival will be available in various configurations, including the business class 4-seater, as well as 7-seater and 9-seater options. The cabin introduces a touch of modernity with a connected touch screen, offering a user-friendly interface and replacing traditional buttons with a touch panel for added convenience.
Features that Stand Out:
- Infotainment Delight: A 12.3-inch touch screen infotainment system paired with a matching 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster.
- Entertainment Extravaganza: A remarkable 14.6-inch rear entertainment screen and a 21.5-inch monitor screen in the business class variant, seamlessly integrated into the roof.
- Comfort Redefined: Dual sunroof, height-adjustable driver seat with memory function, air purifier, and rear seats featuring a Dynamic Body Care function.
- Safety at Its Core: Cutting-edge ADAS technology, eight airbags, electronic stability control, and monitoring systems for tire pressure and a 360-degree camera.
Engine Powerhouse: The fourth-generation Carnival offers three engine options globally, with the Indian market receiving a powerful 2.2-liter diesel engine producing 200 bhp. Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, this engine ensures a dynamic driving experience with power delivered exclusively to the front wheels.
Anticipated Pricing and Release: While the exact pricing details are yet to be disclosed, industry insiders anticipate a starting price of around Rs 40 lakh ex-showroom for the new generation Kia Carnival in India. The vehicle is expected to make its debut in the Indian market by mid-2024 or possibly in late 2024, with an international release to follow.
