  • Fuel-efficient

  • Great handling

Cons

  • Awkward second-row seat arrangement

  • All-wheel drive not available

Reviews Summary

The 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid is a new addition to the Kia Carnival minivan lineup, giving buyers the option of a hybrid powertrain for the first time. The Carnival gets a number of updates as well, including refreshed exterior styling and tech features, to help it remain competitive with the Chrysler Pacifica, Honda Odyssey, and Toyota Sienna in the small — but still significant — minivan segment.

Verdict: The Carnival's new hybrid powertrain enhances an already-impressive package.
