It’s your life and it’s a Carnival

Anyone who’s ever tried getting a family of eight around town knows it can be a circus. Which is why Kia designed the Grand Carnival. Helping meet the hectic demands of modern family life, the Grand Carnival is a truly multipurpose vehicle.

With its versatile 2+3+3 seating design, the Grand Carnival has the room to move your entourage in style and comfort. What’s more, you’re surrounded by user-friendly features from every seat.

Packed full of innovative practicality, the Grand Carnival has been ergonomically designed to cater for all kinds of trips with the entire family. Plus you’ll find plenty of spare room for their luggage, sports gear, and also the family pet.

In fact, virtually every square centimetre of the Grand Carnival has been designed with a practical purpose in mind – whether it’s for storage space or comfort, the Grand Carnival’s got it all.

All the space you’ll ever need

You’re never short of space in the Grand Carnival. Its one-touch double folding seats in the second-row not only create easy access to the third-row of seats, they can also be easily removed to expand the rear cargo space. Plus, the third-row seats fold flat and collapse into the floor, for when you need some extra luggage space.

The power to keep up with a busy family

At the heart of the Grand Carnival is an incredibly powerful 3.5L V6 CVVT (Continuous Variable Valve Timing) petrol engine with aluminium block design or a fuel-efficient 2.2L CRDi diesel engine. Both powerplants have been designed with the latest technological advancements to ensure you have the right amount of power and torque, even when every seat is occupied. While at the same time, delivering a quiet and ecofriendly ride.

The clever 6-speed Sportsmatic auto transmission features fuzzy-logic intelligence for processing information on driving styles and conditions, and an advanced powertrain control unit for smoother gear shifting.

Safeguard your most precious cargo

Safety has always been Kia’s number one consideration in the development of the Grand Carnival. To help protect your passengers and provide peace-of-mind, the Grand Carnival features an abundance of advanced active and passive safety systems, including lifesaving ESC (Electronic Stability Control) with TCS (Traction Control System), ABS brakes, six airbags, as well as optional rear parking sensors and rear view camera.

State-of-the-art safety features such as ESC help maintain control under unexpected road conditions, and incorporates TCS and Brake Assist System, which enhances the ABS to give you maximum stopping power without skidding.

The Grand Carnival’s rigid steel frame creates a safety cell that absorbs impact energy, with front and side collision protection at every important point to help protect passengers in the event of an impact.

When sensors monitoring steering angle and wheel speed detect a potential skid, ESC (Electronic Stability Control) adjusts power and brake to help keep you on course.

A second line of protection is offered by six state-of-the-art airbags. Front dual and side airbags help protect the driver and passenger from front and side collisions. While roof-based side-curtain airbags provide protection for the head of the passengers in the first and second rows.
