The Kia Carnival specifications turn on one diesel engine tuned for calm, quiet cruising. There is a single powertrain here, so the spec sheet stays short and simple to read. That keeps ownership refreshingly straightforward.
A 2.2 litre CRDi diesel powers the Carnival, making 190 bhp at 3800 rpm and 441 Nm of torque. An 8 speed automatic sends that pull to the wheels with little fuss. Peak torque arrives low, from 1750 rpm, which helps this heavy MPV move off cleanly. The setup favours relaxed progress over quick sprints. You can see how the diesel behaves on fuel before deciding.
On size, the Carnival stretches to 5155 mm long on a 3090 mm wheelbase. Width runs to 1995 mm and height to 1775 mm, so it has real road presence. That long body is what frees up the three roomy rows and the powered sliding doors. Ground clearance sits at 180 mm, and the fuel tank holds 72 litres.
Boot volume measures 627 litres behind all seven seats. Kia rates the diesel at 14.85 kmpl, a fair number for a heavy MPV like this. Comfort and safety kit arrive as standard on the lone trim. Next, check the Carnival price for your city.
Read together, the numbers describe a quiet limousine built around its middle row. The engine is strong enough for a full cabin, and the long wheelbase keeps the ride settled at speed. For long motorway trips it is hard to fault. This is a spec sheet about comfort, not outright pace.
