Why it stands out

The 2025 Kia Carnival stands out by bringing a distinctly SUV-like look to the minivan formula. Kia gives it a long, boxy shape that helps with 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 larger, truck-based SUVs. It also offers a lot of standard technology and driver-assist features, and its pricing starts just over $40,000 in earlier model years, which helps explain why it is seen as a strong value for large families.

For 2025, Kia added a gas-electric powertrain shared with the Kia Sorento Hybrid. That version uses a 1.6-litre turbo inline-four and small electric motor making 242 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque, and Natural Resources Canada rates it at 6.9 litres per 100 kilometres in the city, 7.6 on the highway, and 7.2 combined. The Carnival’s V6 remains available, with 287 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, and the eight-speed automatic transmission with multiple driving modes is standard. In testing, the hybrid’s cabin and engine were louder than those of competitors, and its gas-electric system was not as smooth at low speeds as the Toyota Sienna’s, but the ride quality, body control, direct steering, and ability to adjust brake regeneration with the shift paddles were all praised.

The 2025 update 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 who want more equipment can move up through trims that add features such as a 12.3-inch touchscreen 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 “VIP Lounge” second-row seating with heating, cooling, extended recline, and power leg rests. The main trade-offs are familiar minivan ones: low towing ratings and the lack of all-wheel drive may steer some shoppers elsewhere, and Kia does not make folding the seats easy.
