Performance

The Kia Carnival Hybrid's powertrain consists of a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine and a 64-kWh electric motor. This setup delivers exceptional fuel efficiency without sacrificing performance. With an EPA-estimated 34 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway, the Carnival Hybrid achieves a combined 32 MPG rating.

The Carnival Hybrid's 242-horsepower hybrid system provides confident acceleration and smooth power delivery on the highways around Salinas, CA. A six-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive give it surprisingly nimble handling for an eight-passenger vehicle.

Interior and Technology

Inside, the new Carnival Hybrid exemplifies Kia's commitment to comfort and connectivity. All models feature a 12.3-inch touchscreen display with navigation, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and built-in Wi-Fi hotspot capability. Higher trims add luxurious touches like heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and available second-row VIP lounge seats with heating and ventilation.

The flexible seating configuration includes removable second-row seats that feature a 40-20-40 split design. With the second row removed and the third row folded flat, the Carnival Hybrid provides over 145 cubic feet of cargo space for Prunedale drivers to store their luggage or home improvement supplies. The SX Prestige trim offers a pair of luxurious second-row captain's chairs that reduce seating to seven. All three rows are spacious and comfortable, with ample headroom and enough legroom even for adults in the third row.

Safety Features

Safety is a strong suit of the new Carnival Hybrid, which comes with a wide array of standard safety technologies. Every model includes forward collision-avoidance assist, lane keeping assist, lane following assist, and blind-spot collision-avoidance assist. The standard rearview camera and front/rear parking sensors make maneuvering this MPV easier.

Advanced features include navigation-based smart cruise control with stop & go functionality, driver monitoring alert, and highway driving assist. Available intersection collision mitigation warns you of an impending collision during a left turn and applies the brakes in certain situations.
