New 2025 KIA Carnival Facelift (242HP) - Wonderful 11-Seater! Interior and Exterior Details

New KIA Carnival Facelift 2025 - Visual Review The 2025 Carnival makes its official debut courtesy of images showing only the exterior. The minivan’s headlights and taillights have been fully redesigned and have a similar layout resembling the letter “T.“ It looks as though the updated front grille will have different patterns depending on the trim level. Speaking of which, this South Korean version of the family hauler ushers in a “Gravity“ grade with dark metallic accents. As with the midsize sedan we mentioned earlier, the front bumper has a cleaner design after getting rid of the separate fog lights. At the back, Kia has moved the indentation for the license plate lower on the tailgate. The Carnival HEV pairs a turbocharged four-cylinder with a 72-hp electric motor, good for a combined 242 HP and 271 pound-feet of torque and sent through a six-speed automatic transmission. Kia will continue to offer the V-6 on every trim, although the automaker quotes it at 287 horsepower and 260 pound-feet, down by 3 horsepower and 2 pound-feet versus the published figures for the 2024 model. Both setups power the front wheels.
