The new-generation Kia Carnival has already received 2,796 bookings before the launch, the automaker revealed at the launch. The new-gen Kia Carnival has been launched and is priced at ₹63.90 lakh (ex-showroom). Much larger in proportions with a more luxurious cabin, the new offering is a major step up from its predecessor and also arrives initially in a fully loaded spec with a seven-seater configuration.
The new Kia Carnival limousine is being brought as a Completely Built Unit (CBU), which would explain the steep pricing on the new generation version. Kia will locally assemble the model at a later date, which should bring prices down by a substantial margin. Even then, the new Carnival will be significantly more expensive than the Toyota Innova Hycross. That said, the model is also significantly more accessible compared to other luxury limousines including the Toyota Vellfire and Lexus LM.
