We only have 5 days to go and its Christmas. As we prepare our road trip adventure with our family, its better to experience the best comfort while traveling. Columbian Autocar Corporation, the exclusive distributor of Kia vehicles in the country, shares us how their best-selling Kia Grand Carnival is the perfect family vehicle this Christmas:
1.) PERFECT FIT FOR THE FAMILY. The Kia Grand Carnival sets itself apart in the competitive MPV market because there is nothing else like it out there. Based on Kia’s innovative Crossover Utility Vehicle (CUV) design platform, the Carnival is bigger than a typical mini-van while possessing a more polished drive and design than a typical 18-seater van, finding itself in a sweet spot between function and fashion without compromising either one.
Comfortable leather-covered seats are a definite highlight of the Carnival experience. But it’s not just the upholstery material that makes these seats such a stand out feature. Like any good MPV, the seats can be rearranged to provide more storage. However, instead of simply folding up and to the side, or folding forward, the Carnival’s rear-most row’s sinking seats disappear down into the floor providing a completely flat surface. The second-row captain’s seats will slide forward and stand-up for both ease of entry and increased cargo room.
2.) FULLY AUTOMATIC. Power doors are something you never knew you wanted, or even needed in a car until you’ve experienced for yourself the convenience they bring, thanks to the Kia Carnival. With the push of a button, you can have the side doors as well as the rear tailgate open to provide full access to the Carnival’s cavernous interior.
Hands full with shopping bags? The Smart Tailgate will automatically open when it senses the key fob in the vicinity for three seconds. You can even conveniently change the maximum opening height of the tailgate if vertical space in your garage is limited or so your kids can also reach the power close button.
3.) DRIVERS CONTROL. The Kia Grand Carnival makes it easy and convenient for the driver to control every aspect of the vehicle’s interior from the cabin. The power doors can all be easily controlled from the center overhead console, within reach of the driver and front passenger seat along with the usual power windows and locks on the door’s armrest. The Carnival’s steering wheel controls could intimidate some driver’s with the array of options to manipulate the infotainment system and not just the direction where the car is going. Multi-sector climate control is also within reach for easy adjustments during those chilly evening drives.
4.) PICTURE PERFECT SCENE. The driver’s elevated seating position and the thoughtfully designed front windshield provide excellent viewing angles while you maneuver the Carnival. It’s not just the people on the front seats that can enjoy the views. The expansive side windows and sunroof allow everyone in the car to admire the colorful lights and decorations that emerge at this time of year. At night, the Carnival’s bright interior lighting is cleverly positioned for optimal illumination, from everywhere inside the car.
With the Kia Grand Carnival, Kia has set out to break all the stereotypes of the MPV category, and in the process, evolved from the format into something else entirely.
