When the drive to the destination is already more than half the fun
Ask me to choose between a medium-to-large SUV and a minivan and I will always pick the latter. A minivan is better at transporting seven people than even the largest SUVs, especially when you compare the third-row seats. A minivan’s cabin is vastly more spacious and versatile, with rear seats that slide fore and aft or even fold flat into the floor to create a completely flat floor.
A minivan feels more car-like from behind the wheel, making the drive not just easy, but pleasurable. It also grants the occupants a high ride height, giving the driver a commanding view of the road and the passengers a panoramic view of the road—a boon on long road trips.
And families and friends are the perfect van-mates for road trips. Whether it’s the peaceful beaches of Pagudpud or the serene vistas of Bicol, the journey itself is what makes a road trip unforgettable—the shared moments, the scenic vistas, and the exhilarating freedom of the open road, away from city traffic.
The right vehicle can elevate this experience, offering elegant styling, a smooth ride, and features that heighten convenience and enjoyment. People movers like the new Kia Carnival stand out as ideal choices, blending eye-catching designs, premium amenities, and fuel-saving technology. Whether heading to a tranquil beach, a quiet mountain retreat, or an idyllic countryside escape, a minivan ensures comfort and enjoyment mile after mile.
Four variants and two powertrains to fit every journey
Whether cruising on long highways or navigating through scenic routes, the new Kia Carnival ensures that families experience the journey to the fullest. Now available—thanks to an expanded lineup—in diesel (EX and SX) and turbo petrol-hybrid variants (EX and SX+), the Carnival provides versatile options to meet diverse needs, whether prioritizing power, efficiency, or eco-friendly driving for an memorable adventure.
Comfort and connection on twisty, winding roads
There’s something special about the soothing hum of the road, especially when journeying to destinations like Baguio, Tagaytay, or Zambales, with their twisty mountain roads and breathtaking views.
To enhance the journey, the new Kia Carnival offers both the Turbo Hybrid and Turbo Diesel variants, each designed to provide occupants with the perfect mix of comfort and performance. Its spacious cabin and Premium Relaxation seats with ventilation and lumbar support, available in the SX and SX+ models, ensure a smooth and comfortable ride.
The eco-friendly hybrid powertrain or the turbo-diesel engine are perfect motors for both long-distance drives or around-town motoring.
Stay connected and engaged on the long tollways
Every road trip is an opportunity for families and friends to stay engaged, especially when traveling the long stretches of national highways and expressways like NLEX, SLEX, SCTEX, and TPLEX. The new Kia Carnival Turbo Hybrid ensures a smooth and quiet ride thanks to its electric motor and turbocharged gasoline engine, eliminating the usual diesel sound for a truly serene driving experience.
Whether it’s enjoying a favorite playlist, navigating scenic routes, or catching up on podcasts, seamless connectivity is guaranteed with the premium sound system, wireless Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto.
For added convenience, the SX and SX+ models come equipped with a wireless charger and multiple charging points throughout the cabin to keep everyone’s devices powered up. Both EX and SX+ Turbo Hybrid models feature Shift-by-Wire technology and a rotary knob shifter, offering smooth, precise gear shifts for an enhanced driving experience, allowing families to stay comfortable and connected on every journey.
