Transform everyday travels with Kia Grand Carnival

GONE are the days when road trips involved shabby wagons, one-suitcase-per-person policies, or intense seat space rivalry. Here’s news from Kia: Kia solved all that and more with the all-new, 11-seater Kia Grand Carnival.

Central to the Kia Grand Carnival’s appeal is its elegant use of space.

It can comfortably sit up to 11 passengers, has a wide array of seat folding variations, and can fit cargo of various shapes and sizes without compromising the look and feel of its modern, premium cabin. Now, families and travel buddies can have a space for fun and a space for all.

A stand-out feature of the sleek Grand Carnival is the stain-less technology cloth used for its seat material.

Liquid spills easily bead up and can be wiped away while hard stains that have been rubbed or pressed can be removed with soap and water without difficulty.

Indeed, the Grand Carnival is highly versatile making every trip more convenient and more memorable than ever! What’s more, convenience features are extended to the driver, too.

Drivers will enjoy a wide, center console that features a 3.5-inch OLED type touch screen display with rear view camera, easy-to-reach controls for light, active eco system, and engine, and Standard, Hydraulic Type (HPS), and Tilt and Telescopic Adjust-type of power steering.

From the outside, the Euro-inspired styling of the Kia Grand Carnival is what makes it a true head-turner.

It has a polished silhouette, strong and clean lines that run the length of the vehicle, and a bold, cab-forward design. Completing the Grand Carnival’s young, urban, and luxurious appearance are its signature Kia grille, projector headlamps, and halogen fog lamps.

Efficiency under the hood

Matching the well-appointed interior and stylish exterior is the R2.2L in-line, 4-cylinder, CRDi, DOHC, 16V engine that delivers efficiency and optimum handling.

In fact, Kia Grand Carnival’s fuel consumption was recently tested through the Euro 4 fuel efficiency run that the Department of Energy and Petron Corporation organized.

The government sanctioned challenge involved 22 automotive companies in the Philippines to test the fuel efficiency of light-duty motor vehicles.

Columbian Autocar Corporation (CAC), the exclusive distributor of Kia vehicles in the Philippines, sent a mix of gasoline and diesel variants of almost all Kia models to take part in the 280 km run on a highway setting from Angeles, Pampanga to the Tarlac- Pangasinan- La Union Expressway.

The Kia Grand Carnival 2.2 FWD 6A/T posted a notable 19.20km/L fuel efficiency mark.

All in all, both quality- and style-conscious buyers will certainly appreciate how Kia Grand Carnival can transform everyday travels into grand, enjoyable rides with its ideal mix of style, comfort, space, and power.
