Singapore Motorshow 2024 is the venue for the right-hand drive (RHD) debut of the 2024 Kia Carnival facelift. The fourth generation of the pioneering Korean MPV saw a styling revision in its domestic left-hand drive (LHD) market in October last year. For now, the Carnival facelift that is shown at Kia Singapore’s booth during the city-island state’s premier motor show is only for preview as prices weren’t announced. The pre-facelift Carnival has also been discontinued in Singapore since June 202

Kia distributor for Malaysia and Bermaz subsidiary Dinamikjaya Motors has sold out most of its allocation of the fully imported (CBU) from Korea 11-seater Kia Carnival. The locally-assembled (CKD) Kia Carnival will be launched in Malaysia after May 2022, said sources familiar with the matter. Checks with dealers show that most of their allocation - said to be in the mid hundreds range - were snapped up within the first month of its launch in January 2022. The CBU Kia Carnival is currently sold a

The all-new 2022 Kia Carnival is Dinamikjaya Motors’ first model launched ever since it took over Kia’s Malaysian distributorship from Naza back in April. Priced from RM 196,340, the 11-seater MPV is fully-imported (CBU) from Korea with local (CKD) production to start in 2022. For now, the Malaysian-spec Carnival is only available with a single variant that is powered by a 2.2-litre Smartstream turbodiesel engine (199 PS/440 Nm). That engine is paired to an 8-speed automatic transmission that is

The Toyota Land Cruiser 300 was unveiled recently and that has primed the Lexus LX for an all-new model because as you know, the LX is based on the Land Cruiser. A leak alleging that it’s the all-new 2022 Lexus LX has surfaced on the internet. From the images, it appears to feature all the contemporary Lexus design cues like the spindle grille and L-shaped LED graphics. Other details from the front are difficult to discern as the image is rather dark, akin to a teaser. From the rear, the Lexus l

Malaysians - particularly the older generation - have a knack of calling reasonably-luxurious cars as 'big' cars. If you belong to a rather traditional family, you'll be golden with something large like a Toyota Alphard. Perhaps that's one of the reasons why some see it as something to strive for. But the Koreans called - they have the 2021 Kia Carnival to show you. If you've been in the third-generation (YP) model and found that to be big (we know we did), then the fourth-generation (KA4) ampli

The price of the 2020 Kia Grand Carnival with 11 seats has been revealed to be RM 175,088 on the road without insurance. But what’s more surprising is that the 11-seater will replace the Grand Carnival with 8-seats entirely so there is only 1 variant. As predicted, the 11-seater Grand Carnival will be powered by the same 2.2-litre diesel engine that dispenses 200 PS and 440 Nm of torque. The engine is mated to an 8-speed conventional automatic gearbox. This means that the Grand Carnival will sit
