Why it stands out

The 2025 Kia Carnival stands out by bringing minivan practicality in a package that looks far more aggressive, angular, and modern than most rivals. It has a long, boxy shape that pays dividends for cargo capacity and passenger comfort, especially for adults in the third row, while its low step-in height and relatively light curb weight make it easier to live with than many truck-based SUVs. Kia also gives it a strong value argument, with prices that start just over $40,000 and a cabin that is aimed squarely at large families.

What makes the 2025 model especially distinctive is the breadth of equipment available across the range. Most versions use a 3.5-litre V6 with 287 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission with multiple driving modes. For 2025, Kia also added a gas-electric powertrain with a 1.6-litre turbo inline-four and small electric motor producing 242 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque, along with much better fuel efficiency. The 2025 refresh also brought a wider, longer grille, vertically stacked headlights, amber daytime running lamps with turn signals that resemble giant hooks, revised taillights, new bumpers, new wheels, and a redesigned dashboard with updated infotainment screens.

Buyers looking for a well-equipped family vehicle will find plenty to like, especially in the higher trims, which add features such as a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with built-in navigation and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a surround-view monitor, and Kia’s semi-automated Highway Driving Assist 2 technology. The top trim’s “VIP Lounge” seating adds heating, cooling, extended recline, and power leg rests to the second row. The main drawbacks are also clear: low towing ratings, the lack of all-wheel drive, mixed safety ratings, and a cabin and engine that were found to be louder than those of competitors in testing.
