Pros

  • Stylish design

  • Powerful engine

  • Excellent value for money

Cons

  • Mixed safety ratings

  • No hybrid or all-wheel drive options

  • Kia doesn’t make folding the seats easy

Reviews Summary

Ahead of a 2025-model-year refresh, the 2024 Kia Carnival carries over unchanged as Kia’s entry into a small, but competitive, minivan segment that also includes the Chrysler Pacifica, Honda Odyssey, and Toyota Sienna.

The Carnival offers a great driving experience and affordable starting price, but these upsides are tainted by a lack of all-wheel drive and mixed safety ratings.
