The first 2 units of the new locally-assembled (CKD) 7-seater 2022 Kia Carnival has just arrived in Bukit Jalil, just in time for preparations in setting up the WapCar Auto Show, slated to happen from 1- to 3-July, at Pavilion Bukit Jalil.
This new MPV is the first CKD Kia model sold by Dinamikjaya Motor, the new custodian of Kia in Malaysia.
Exterior-wise, the CKD Carnival is nigh-on identical to the imported (CBU) model. The key visual differences are inside.
