No one makes plans quite like a Filipino family. Schedules get juggled, arrangements get made, and no matter how full the week gets, there is always room for one more person in the car. This International Family Day, Kia Philippines celebrates Filipino families in all their forms: the young and growing, the multigenerational, and those redefining what families look like today. Kia celebrates each of them with vehicles built to carry the whole household and more on every road, at every milestone, and through every version of the life they are building together.
Made for What Matters: Kia Sorento and Kia Carnival
Every day should begin with the quiet luxury of a first-class experience, where the morning rhythm feels effortless, and the family moves through it with ease. The Kia Carnival Turbo Hybrid is the centerpiece of that lifestyle, transforming the school run and the Sunday market trip into a seamless itinerary of premium comfort. Its quiet hybrid performance and sophisticated cabin design bring the whole family into a space of collective calm, where every journey feels composed and intentional. Because a family that starts the day this way arrives at every destination ready for whatever comes next.
For the families whose days are a relay race of commitments, work, school, practice, errands, and everything in between, the Kia Sorento Turbo Hybrid is the vehicle that holds it all together. The seven-seater SUV takes on EDSA traffic and unpredictable Monday mornings without breaking a sweat. When the weekend finally arrives, its all-wheel-drive system is ready to take the family well beyond the usual routes. What makes it all sustainable is knowing that neither vehicle asks the family to choose between capability and efficiency.
Both the Kia Carnival Turbo Hybrid and the Kia Sorento Turbo Hybrid return an impressive 23.8 kilometers per liter in urban driving conditions, based on UNR101 testing standards.That kind of efficiency is the quiet confidence of knowing every journey is covered, because a family that moves through the world with purpose deserves a vehicle that matches their pace on every kind of road, paved or otherwise.
The Pioneers of Possibility: Kia EV5 and Kia EV9
Families have always made choices with the future in mind, from the schools they choose, and the habits they build, to the world they are preparing their children to inherit. The Kia EV5 fits naturally into a household that already lives this way, one where sustainability is part of the routine and thoughtful choices are the norm. It offers a cleaner, smarter way to move through the week, one that reflects the values a family lives by without asking anyone to give up comfort, style, or the small pleasures that make everyday life feel good. What makes that choice even easier is knowing that driving a Kia EV can translate to up to 70% in energy cost savings compared to typical internal combustion engine vehicles, making it a decision the whole family can feel good about, today and for the years ahead.
And when the whole family finally gets to go somewhere together, the Kia EV9 with its versatile six-seater configuration makes sure the journey is worth remembering. Its cabin is spacious enough for everyone to claim their own little corner, relaxed enough for the long stretches, and refined enough that the drive itself comes as part of the experience. Named the 2024 Car of the Year, it is the vehicle for families who believe that how they get there matters just as much as where they are going. With Kia being part of ACMobility, every road the family travels is supported by a growing network of EV charging infrastructure across the country, so the journey never has to stop at the edge of a full charge.
Built for Every Road They Travel
Every family’s journey is its own, shaped by the people in it, the roads they take, and the life they are choosing to build. From the everyday capability of the Carnival and Sorento to the forward-looking electrified mobility of the EV5 and EV9, there is a Kia for every family and chapter they are living through. Across every model, thoughtfully engineered safety technology gives families the freedom to be present for what matters most: each other. For Kia, this is what Movement That Inspires truly means: a life lived fully and together on every road that is theirs to own.
“Rooted in love and driven by resilience, the Filipino family is the heartbeat of the nation. At Kia, we aim to match every Filipino family’s spirit with a vehicle designed to support every milestone as they move through life. Because the greatest journeys are not measured in kilometers but in the moments that bring us closer together, and that is the Kia Movement,” said Jay Lopez, Managing Director of Kia Philippines.
