Korean automaker Kia has revealed the India-spec Carnival 3-row MPV for the Indian market. Scheduled to be launched on October 3, the new Kia Carnival will be a 7-seater model and will come as a Completely Built-Up Unit (CBU). It will be launched alongside the brand's upcoming flagship Kia EV9 electric SUV.

Kia Motors India will introduce the facelifted version of the fourth-gen Carnival MPV, which debuted in global markets in November last year. For people not in the know, Kia had showcased the 4th generation Carnival as a KA4 concept at the 2023 Auto Expo. The new Kia Carnival features the brand's new design language, which offers a sharper exterior design. It retains the boxier design with clean surfaces on side and rear.
The front has the signature 'Tiger Nose' grille with L-shaped LED daytime running lamps. It rides on newly styled 18-inch alloy wheels. The rear also has the L-shaped theme with an LED light bar connecting the tail-lamps. There is a silver chrome bar on the C-pillar that merges with the chrome garnish on the bottom of the rear windscreen. Also See - Kia Carens - All Details
The new Kia Carnival is offered with two exterior colour options - Glacier White Pearl and Fusion Black. Kia is offering two dual-tone interior themes - Navy and Misty Gray and Tuscan and Umber.

The new-gen Carnival will be powered by a 2.2-litre, 4-cylinder turbo diesel engine that churns out 193bhp and 441Nm of torque. Compared to the previous model, the new model offers 1Nm less torque and 7hp less power. Power is transmitted to the front wheels via an 8-speed torque convertor automatic gearbox.
The new Carnival MPV will go on sale in the country on October 3, 2024. The Kia Carnival will be offered in two variants - Limousine and Limousine Plus. To be introduced as a fully imported model, the new 7-seater MPV is likely to cost above Rs 50 lakh. The company could start local assembly of the new Carnival at a later stage. It won't have a direct rival in our market. In fact, the new Kia Carnival will be introduced as a more premium alternative to the Toyota Innova Hycross.
