The upcoming Kia Carnival will be available in three seating configurations. The Toyota Innova Crysta rivalling MPV will be showcased at the 2020 Auto Expo.
Kia Motors’ second offering from India is the premium Carnival MPV. It will be positioned above the Toyota Innova Crysta in terms of price as it is expected to be priced around Rs 25 Lakhs. The top-end variant of Crysta is priced around Rs 24 Lakhs (ex-showroom).
Autocar now reports that the Kia Carnival MPV will come in three seating options – 6-seater, 7-seater and 8-seater. These three seating arrangements will be offered across different variants, suited to fit in the budget of a wide range of buyers.
The 7-seater variant will come with a third-row bench, just like in the Ertiga. The 8-seater variant will get a three-seater bench in the second row as well. Usually, MPVs get two individual captain seats in the first two rows.
