Now that you’re settling down and enjoying retired life, you need a vehicle that can transport you and your family members whenever they visit! Whether you’re taking a vacation with the grandkids or just taking your adult children with you on a weekend trip, the 2024 Kia Carnival is a great option that offers premium comfort and tons of easy-to-use safety technology.

Interior comfort

The first thing you need to know about the Kia Carnival is that it boasts best-in-class passenger space, giving you and your family plenty of room to stretch out and stay comfortable. In addition to offering tons of room for people, the Carnival also has best-in-class cargo space. When you fold down those rear seats, you’ll have a total of 145.1 cubic feet of space available.

Beyond having an amazing amount of room, the new Carnival can be outfitted with a variety of upscale amenities and materials. Seat trimmings are available in cloth, easy-to-clean SynTex, and leather. If you go with the Kia Carnival SX or SX Prestige trims, you’ll find top-tier features in the cabin like heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and an eight-way power driver’s seat with four-way power lumbar adjustment.

The available second-row VIP Lounge Seats come with a comfort headrest and leg extensions so your back-seat passengers can relax in style. Other standard and available amenities include a leather-wrapped gear shift knob and steering wheel, metal finish interior accent trim with a 3D pattern, open pore wood trim, and LED interior lighting.

Practical features and accessibility

Getting between two rows of seats in the back is a breeze thanks to the eight-passenger Slide-Flex seating and the power sliding rear doors. To make it easy to speak to back-seat passengers, the Carnival can be equipped with the Passenger Talk in-cabin intercom that amplifies your voice through the speakers.

If you’ll be switching between drivers often, consider getting the Kia Carnival SX Prestige or SX, which come with a driver’s seat integrated memory system. This means you can easily get back to your ideal seat, mirror, and steering wheel settings with the press of a button.

To help you load and unload items in the back, the available Smart Power Liftgate will open with a button on the key fob. Simply press the button again to close the door after you’ve gotten everything sorted back there!

Ride quality and performance

The Kia Carnival was tested across the globe to ensure that it can handle just about anything it encounters. From the Death Valley desert to the Alaskan tundra, the Carnival is ready for any family adventure. This multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) is powered by a 3.5-liter V6 engine that gets 290 horsepower, 262 lb-ft of torque, and a max towing capacity of 3,500 pounds.

Beyond pure power, the Carnival offers a smooth ride thanks to its independent MacPherson front struts and multi-link rear suspension. There’s also an Eco Drive Mode to help you get the best efficiency possible with the MPV.

Safety technology

It can be hard to navigate the roads sometimes, but the 2024 Carnival works hard to keep you secure with its advanced safety features. The Kia Drive Wise suite of driver-assist systems includes standard tech like:

Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist with Parallel Exit.
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection.
Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Avoidance Assist.
Park Distance Warning-Rear.
Lane Departure Warning.
Lane Keeping Assist.
Lane Following Assist.
Driver Attention Warning with Leading Vehicle Departure Alert.
