The facelifted Kia Carnival has hit our showroom floors and we're loving the new upgrades on offer across the range.
Here's a quick list of the five things we love the most about it so far.
The MY25 Kia Carnival boasts a highly adaptable interior, perfect for all your family needs with its flexible seating and smart storage solutions.
The standard 8-seat layout includes second-row seats that slide, tilt, and fold to make access to the third row an absolute breeze.
Cargo space is exceptional even with all rows in use with 627 litres to play with. When the third-row disappears flat into the floor the cargo space expands to an absolutely monstrous 2,785 litres.
From smart charging to voice commands and remote vehicle control, the Carnival is connected on every level.
We love the super convenient combination of the wireless charging station and wireless Apple CarPlay.
Kia Connect is also a game-changer with its ability to lock and unlock the doors and control your climate settings.
The Carnival is built to keep your family secure with all the latest active safety technology featured as standard across the range.
Your Carnival keeps an eye out for every road situation. It knows what lane you're in, it knows when there are cyclists and pedestrians about, it knows when a possible collision may occur at an intersection, it knows what's in your blind spot, and it also knows when the driver is inattentive.
The Kia Carnival's revised, geometrically-inspired exterior styling looks incredible transforming the stereotypically frumpy people mover into a ride that could even be considered sexy.
We love the new front-end design with its revised grille, headlights, and taillights that align with Kia's latest design language.
The GT-Line also gains fresh 19-inch alloy wheels and quilted Nappa leather upholstery.
The thing we love the most, and what is by far the biggest addition to the Carnival range, is the all-new hybrid powertrain option.
The 1.6-litre turbo-petrol system puts out comfortable power and torque figures of 183kW and 367Nm which are good for a satisfying combined fuel consumption figure of 5.8 litres per 100 kilometres - making it the most frugal Carnival ever produced.
If you've got a growing family, or just looking for a car with convenience and the space to match, speak to the team at Motorama Kia today and organise a test drive of the new Kia Carnival.
