Kia has equipped the Carnival with a 12.3-inch touchscreen system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay and digital driver’s display of the same size. There’s an 11-inch head-up display (HUD), powered and ventilated front and second-row seats, three-zone climate control and connected car technology. The most notable addition to the cabin includes heating, ventilation and massage function to the second-row captain seats.

The Carnival's safety equipment includes hill assist, TPMS, rear and side parking sensors, adaptive cruise control, ESC and all-4 disc brakes. Kia is also offering Level 2 ADAS with the seven-seater - two each at the first and second row and three in the last row.
The new Carnival will continue to be powered by a 2.2-litre, 4-cylinder turbo diesel engine that churns out 193bhp and 441Nm of torque. Compared to the 2023 model, the new MUV offers 1Nm less torque and 7hp less power. The engine output is transmitted to the front wheels via an 8-speed torque convertor automatic gearbox. It will be offered in one variant - Limousine Plus.
