2023 Kia Carnival Specs & Performance

One of the first things many people will notice upon seeing the new 2023 Kia Carnival is that it looks quite rugged for its category. Although the vehicle is still 100% a pure minivan, it does offer a powerful 3.5-liter V-6 engine that can produce 290 horsepower. What makes the Carnival even better is that its engine is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission that adds up to an excellent road experience. People searching for a ride that has the looks of an SUV but the cargo capacity of a van, then the 2023 Kia Carnival is the one for you.
