This Hyundai MPV Will Be The Answer To Kia Carnival in India!

This a Carnival-based Hyundai MPV that’s slated for a debut in 2021 and this could very well be on Hyundai’s cards for India. Hyundai has surely gone the length to give it a different identity from the Kia Carnival.

We had already reported to you that Hyundai is working on a premium MPV for India and it will most likely come to our market in 2021. This premium MPV will in fact be based on the Kia Carnival and it will be borrowing plenty of bits from the Carnival as well. This Carnival-based Hyundai MPV has now been spied for the first time without any camouflage on international roads and we will tell you everything we know about it.

A you can see from the images, this Hyundai MPV has a very distinct and unique identity. Unlike the Carnival which has a much more elegant design, Hyundai has gone all-out with this MPV with a very jazzy and bling design. There are all sorts of sharp cuts and creases on the body with a huge chrome-laden grille dominating the face, much similar to the Vision T. A sharp shoulder line and the dual-tone alloy wheels add a lot of character to the sides. The rear meanwhile has a much more conservative design with a connected LED tail lamp units.

It has been spied uncamouflaged on international roads for the first time.

The spy images also give us a glimpse inside the MPV and here again, its very different from the Carnival. The dashboard is dominated by a large free-floating horizontally oriented touchscreen infotainment system and the steering wheel is straight out of the Creta. The faux AC vents running across the width of the dashboard also give it a very unique look and seem inspired from new age Audi cars. Much like the Carnival, we expect this Hyundai MPV to also offer a range of seating options ranging from 7- to 11-seater options.

Under the hood, this Hyundai MPV could be using the same engines as will under the hood of the recently unveiled new Kia Carnival. That means there will the following engine options –  a 294PS/355Nm 3.5-litre V6 direct injection petrol, a 272PS/332Nm 3.5-litre MPi V6 petrol and a 202PS/440Nm 2.2-litre diesel engine. All the engines will come mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission only. This MPV is expected to officially debut sometime in 2021 and given the positive response the Carnival has garnered in India, this surely will be on Hyundai’s cards for India.
