Auto Expo 2025: Kia Carnival Hi Limousine Revealed

2025 Kia Carnival Hi Limousine Exterior Design

Based on the recently launched new-generation Carnival, the Hi Limousine incorporates Kia’s current design language. Key exterior features include a prominent chrome grille, vertically oriented quad-LED headlights, connected LED daytime running lights (DRLs), 18-inch alloy wheels, and sliding rear doors. The most distinguishing feature is the integrated high-roof extension.

The dashboard design mirrors the standard Carnival, but the second row is significantly upgraded. 2 large captain seats with extended leg rests provide a first-class travel experience. Individual touchscreens control seat heating, ventilation, air conditioning, cabin lighting, and window curtains.

Tech highlights include dual 12.3-inch displays (infotainment and driver’s display) and an 11-inch head-up display (HUD). The driver’s seat offers 12-way power adjustability with lumbar support, while the front passenger seat provides 8-way power adjustment.

Safety is prioritised with 8 airbags, a 360-degree camera, disc brakes on all four wheels, a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and Level-2 Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), including front collision warning and lane keep assist.

Powertrain And Availability

Globally, the Carnival Hi Limousine is available with a 3.5L petrol engine (294 PS, 355 Nm) and a 2.2-liter diesel engine (194 PS, 441 Nm), both paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The Indian-spec Carnival already utilises the 2.2L diesel engine.

While an official India launch is pending confirmation, the Carnival Hi Limousine, if introduced, would be positioned above the standard Carnival as a premium alternative to models like the Toyota Vellfire and Lexus LM.
