2025 Kia Carnival MPV

Offering a range of options, the 2025 Carnival MPV Hybrid is available in four trim levels: LXS, EX, SX, and SX Prestige. All model variants have LED auto-control headlights. The LXS features Gloss Black 17-inch wheels, and the EX and higher trims come with 19-inch wheels that enhance the vehicle's road presence. The SX and SX Prestige also have dual sunroofs to let in lots of light. All trims have heated side mirrors, and the EX, SX, and SX Prestige trims add a power liftgate with auto-close.

The 2025 Carnival MPV Hybrid delivers impressive performance with an advanced power system. At its core, a 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine teams up with a 54-kilowatt electric motor. Together, they generate 242 horsepower and 271 pound-feet of torque. This powerful combo sends energy to the front wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission.

The hybrid setup offers additional features, such as regenerative braking, which saves energy that would usually go to waste. The engine's design showcases aluminum components, which make it lighter, and the gasoline direct injection system uses fuel more efficiently. A smart cooling system keeps things running at optimal temperature, no matter how far you drive.

The Carnival MPV Hybrid aims for a combined fuel economy of 33 mpg. Its E-Handling system enhances stability, makes turns smoother, and helps you stay in control. For comfort, E-Ride tech adjusts the automobile's response on bumpy roads. The steering system is quick and precise. These attributes work together to create a family MPV that's practical and fun to operate.

Kia offers a spacious and comfortable interior in the Carnival MPV Hybrid, seating seven or eight people. Trim options include cloth or leather seats, and the vehicle comes with tri-zone climate control. The available second-row captain's chairs provide extra luxury.

The Carnival MPV Hybrid comes with a 12.3-inch touchscreen as standard, and the SX and SX Prestige variants add a 12.3-inch curved display. The optional rear-seat entertainment system includes dual screens. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connect wirelessly, while a Bose Premium 12-speaker sound system delivers quality audio in the SX Prestige. Wireless charging and multiple USB ports add to the convenience.

The 2025 Kia Carnival MPV Hybrid delivers robust safety features. Forward collision-avoidance assist forms the core of its protection system. Highway Driving Assist 2, available on the SX and SX Prestige trims, adjusts speed and steering for enhanced control. Other safety features include blind-spot monitoring, traffic alerts, and safe exit assist.

A blind spot view monitor provides a clear view of hard-to-see areas, while lane keeping assist helps keep the vehicle in its lane. Kia's safety technologies work to protect passengers, making the 2025 Carnival MPV Hybrid a top choice for families who prioritize security.
