Kia Grand Carnival

A Real Crowd Pleaser

The Kia Grand Carnival offers ample space to accommodate your family and all their gear, ensuring comfort and style for every journey.

It's Your Life and It's a Carnival

Designed for the demands of modern family life, the Grand Carnival is a truly multi-purpose vehicle. Its versatile 2+3+3 seating configuration provides generous room for up to eight passengers, ensuring comfort and style for everyone. User-friendly features are integrated throughout the cabin, offering convenience from every seat. Passengers enjoy ample head and legroom, even when all eight seats are occupied. The interior is packed with innovative practicality, ergonomically designed for all types of trips. There is also plenty of space for luggage, sports equipment, and even pets.

All the Space You'll Ever Need

The Grand Carnival maximizes space utilization. Second-row seats feature a one-touch double-folding mechanism for easy access to the third row and can be removed entirely to expand rear cargo capacity. The third-row seats fold flat and stow neatly into the floor, creating additional room for cargo and luggage. This flexible design ensures you have the space required for any situation.

Versatile Seating

Third-row seats can be folded and stowed away quickly into the floor. Flat-folding seats enhance the ability to transport cargo and luggage.

Convenient In-Floor Storage

Dedicated storage compartments are integrated into the floor.

Cargo Space Dimensions

Maximum cargo space: 2,280 mm (with seats folded/removed). Additional cargo dimensions noted: 1,393 mm.

The Power to Keep Up With a Busy Family

The Grand Carnival is powered by a choice of engines: a potent 3.5L V6 CVVT (Continuous Variable Valve Timing) petrol engine with an aluminium block, or a fuel-efficient 2.2L CRDi diesel engine. Both engines are engineered with advanced technology to deliver the necessary power and torque, even when the vehicle is fully occupied, while providing a quiet and eco-friendly ride.

The 6-speed Sportsmatic automatic transmission utilizes fuzzy-logic intelligence to adapt to driving styles and conditions, ensuring smoother gear shifts through its advanced powertrain control unit.

3.5L V6 Engine

• Displacement: 3,470 cc

Safeguard Your Most Precious Cargo

Kia prioritizes safety in the Grand Carnival's design. It features a comprehensive suite of active and passive safety systems to protect passengers. These include life-saving ESC (Electronic Stability Control) with TCS (Traction Control System), ABS brakes, and six airbags. Optional rear parking sensors and a rear-view camera further enhance safety.

Advanced features like ESC, TCS, and Brake Assist System work together to maintain control under challenging road conditions and maximize stopping power without skidding.

The Grand Carnival's rigid steel frame forms a safety cell designed to absorb impact energy, providing front and side collision protection at critical points.

Six state-of-the-art airbags are strategically placed: front dual airbags, side airbags, and roof-based side-curtain airbags for head protection in the first and second rows.

ESC actively adjusts power and braking when sensors detect potential skids, helping the driver maintain course.
