Build and Price
Carnival Hybrid strikes the perfect balance of utility, purpose and energy-efficient hybrid performance. With inspired design and the latest in driver assistance and safety technologies, Carnival Hybrid offers a new dimension in family-ready mobility.
Carnival Hybrid features a 1.6L Turbo turbocharged gasoline direct injection (GDI) engine paired with a battery-powered electric motor. In all-electric mode, you enjoy quiet, zero-emissions driving. With gasoline power, you travel effortlessly. Together, you get smooth, confident performance with low fuel consumption.
Carnival Hybrid EV is available in 7- and 8-passenger models with remarkable comforts – such as 2nd-row VIP Lounge Seating – that create an environment ideal for family travel. And for the driver, an 11" head-up display (HUD) that turns the inside of the windshield, just below their eye line, into a key driving information centre.
Carnival Hybrid is available with Kia’s latest driver assistance and safety systems – including a Surround View Monitor system that provides a view of potential obstacles in front, behind and beside your vehicle – to help you manoeuvre with added confidence in tight spaces.
Using the Kia Connect app and available Digital Key 2.0, your smartphone becomes an all-in-one convenience for unlocking and starting your Carnival Hybrid, pre-warming or pre-cooling the interior, checking vehicle health and even creating a digital key you can share with other drivers in your family.
Surround View Monitor provides a 360-degree view of your surroundings so you can check for possible hazards around the vehicle when parking and before exiting the vehicle.
Using ultrasonic sensors at the front and rear of the vehicle, Parking Distance Warning helps make parking easier by warning you about objects that may not be visible to you during low-speed parking manoeuvres. Available side sensors extend the system capabilities to provide all-around coverage.
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) uses a forward-facing radar system to alert you to a potential collision and can automatically apply the brakes, if needed, to mitigate it.
Lane follow assist uses a camera at the front windshield to detect lane markers on the road to help keep you in the centre of your lane.
This standard feature activates whenever Carnival Hybrid’s transmission is placed in Reverse to detect traffic approaching from either side of your vehicle, helping you avoid collisions with vehicles you may not be able to see.
For added peace of mind, Carnival Hybrid is available with Highway Driving Assist 2, a technology that helps you stay in your lane, even on curves. It also has the ability to automatically adjust your lane position if a vehicle to the side of you is getting too close.
Every Carnival Hybrid is equipped to receive over-the-air (OTA) updates to many of its electronically controlled systems, including the powertrain. You get easy access to updates and available upgrades with fewer dealership visits over the life of the vehicle.
Shift-by-wire replaces mechanical transmission shift linkages with compact electronic controls for more precise and efficient shifting, while freeing more space in the centre stack and centre console for storage and easier-to-reach system controls.
Offers a panoramic exterior camera view to the rear, unobstructed by passengers or cargo.
Lets you keep an eye on rear-seat passengers and helps everyone communicate easily between rows.
Includes heated and ventilated captain chairs with recline function and soothing relaxation mode.
