The 2024 Carnival MPV is a carryover model with minor packaging changes. The Carnival competes in the Midsize MPV segment, but its combination of SUV styling, exceptional passenger and cargo volume, and practical convenience features also make it uniquely positioned to compete against three-row SUV crossover models.

Last month, sales of the Carnival were up 81 percent over the previous March record, contributing to the brand’s eighth consecutive month of record-breaking sales. The 2023 Carnival was also one of nine Kia models included in the 2023 Car and Driver Editors’ Choice Awards list, representing the publication’s annual standard of automotive excellence.

The Carnival continues to offer best-in-class cargo space ¹, along with class-leading 290 horsepower² with 262 lb.-ft. of torque and 3,500-lb. towing³ capacity. Standard hands-free power sliding doors and available hands-free power tailgate with auto closing, one-button all-door open/close functionality, and modular second- and third-row seat flexibility, including second-row center multi-function free mode seats, lend to the overall convenience of the Carnival.

For the 2024 model year, the All-Auto Up/Down & Safety Power Windows were removed from the EX trim, but remain standard for the SX and SX Prestige. The Carnival EX Power Tailgate Delete Package (8-Passenger) is no longer available.
