The Kia Carnival only has a single engine and transmission option. It is powered by a 2.2-litre inline-4 VGT-turbo-diesel motor that generates 200 PS and 440 Nm of maximum power and torque figures, respectively. It comes paired to an 8-speed automatic gearbox. Although the Carnival is extremely heavy, nearly 2,200 kg, the engine-transmission combo never let the vehicle feel lethargic.

There is plenty of equipment on offer as well. The top-trim offers like Dual Electric Sunroof, dual 10.1-inch touchscreen entertainment and leg-rests for the second-row seats, multiple USB charging ports and a 2-point charging port. Other than that, you get power-operated sliding door for easy ingress and egress, and power-operated tailgate for the boot. The prices of the Kia Carnival begins at Rs. 24.95 lakh and goes up to Rs. 33.95 lakh (both prices ex-showroom, New Delhi). Currently, there is no direct competition for the Carnival MPV, although MG might be planning to bring one in the future.
