The 2026 Kia Carnival is not just a minivan; it’s a reimagined multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) designed to deliver luxury, practicality, and cutting-edge technology for the modern family. With its SUV-inspired styling, spacious interior, and advanced features, the Carnival sets a new benchmark in the family vehicle segment. Whether you’re planning a cross-country road trip or simply tackling the daily commute, the 2026 Kia Carnival ensures that every journey is comfortable and connected.
Unparalleled Design and Versatility
The 2026 Kia Carnival boasts an exterior design that challenges traditional minivan aesthetics. Its SUV-inspired styling, including bold vertical LED headlights, sleek lines, and available 19-inch alloy wheels, ensures you’ll make a statement on the road. For those seeking a more distinctive look, the SX Dark Edition offers exclusive dark accents and off-black two-tone interiors.
Inside, the Carnival doesn’t just meet expectations—it exceeds them. With Best-in-Class cargo and passenger space for up to 8 passengers, this MPV is ready to accommodate both people and gear. The available Slide-Flex seating system adds even more versatility, allowing the second-row seats to transform into a table or slide forward for easier access to the front row. Families will also appreciate the available dual sunroofs, which create an open and airy cabin environment.
Advanced Technology for Modern Families
When it comes to technology, the 2026 Kia Carnival doesn’t hold back. The dashboard features an available 12.3-inch Dual Panoramic Display and 11-inch head-up display, providing close to 24 inches of combined screen space for navigation, entertainment, and more. Rear passengers can enjoy the optional dual 14.6-inch integrated entertainment screens, ensuring everyone stays entertained on longer trips.
Driver assistance technology is also a key highlight. Standard features include Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist. For added peace of mind, the Carnival offers Highway Driving Assist 2, which helps maintain speed and steering control during lane changes. Meanwhile, the available 360-degree Surround View Monitor and Blind-Spot View Monitor provide enhanced visibility in tricky driving situations.
Comfort Meets Luxury
The 2026 Kia Carnival is as much about comfort as it is about functionality. The available VIP Lounge Seats in the second row come with one-touch relaxation mode, complete with reclining capability, power footrests, and ventilation options. Ambient lighting allows families to set the mood, while the tri-zone automatic climate control system ensures everyone stays comfortable, no matter the weather.
For parents who need to keep an eye on their little ones, the Passenger View Camera with Night Vision offers a clear view of the rear seats—even in low light. Add in features like the power sliding rear doors and Smart Power Liftgate, and it’s clear that the Carnival is built with convenience in mind.
