Vehicle Overview

The 2015 Kia Carnival S YP is a large eight-seat people mover presented in white with a petrol 3.3-litre six-cylinder engine and automatic transmission. Its substantial cabin, sliding side doors and three-row seating configuration make it a practical choice for carrying passengers while retaining the familiar driving layout of a conventional SUV-style vehicle.

With eight seats and a third row that can be split-folded, the Carnival offers flexibility for changing passenger and cargo requirements. The second row reclines and slides, while the third row has flat-folding functionality, allowing the interior to be adapted when carrying luggage or larger items instead of a full complement of passengers. Lap-and-sash belts are specified for all eight seating positions, and adjustable head restraints are provided across the first three rows.

Access is helped by powered convenience features and sliding doors on both sides of the vehicle. Rear air conditioning is included, which is useful in a long cabin where maintaining a comfortable temperature across all seating rows can otherwise be difficult. Storage provisions include bottle holders, cup holders, door pockets, a centre console and seatback pockets, supporting the everyday demands of a multi-passenger interior.

The 3.3-litre petrol engine produces 336 Nm of torque and drives the front wheels through a six-speed sports automatic transmission. The published combined fuel-consumption figure is 11 L/100km, supported by an 80-litre fuel tank. This combination is oriented toward straightforward, capable road use and provides the torque and engine capacity expected of a full-sized passenger vehicle.

Equipment is focused on practical usability and includes cruise control, power steering, power windows, heated power door mirrors, automatic headlights, a rear-view camera and rear parking assistance with graphical display. Bluetooth, USB and auxiliary audio inputs, an MP3 decoder, an iPod input and a six-speaker stereo provide several ways to connect and manage entertainment on longer journeys. A trip computer and multifunction steering wheel add useful control and information without requiring the driver to reach across the cabin.

Safety equipment includes electronic stability control, traction control, brake assist, electronic brake-force distribution and hill-holder assistance, together with ABS and front, passenger, side and head-protection airbags. The vehicle carries a four-star ANCAP safety rating. Roof rails, a rear roof spoiler, remote boot release and a temporary space-saver spare wheel add further everyday practicality.
