All-New 2021 Kia Carnival revealed, potential hybrid powertrain? 01

Kia Motors Corporation has revealed first images of the new Kia Carnival, the fourth generation of the brand’s flagship minivan. Back in April, we were teased with renderings of the rear-end of the new Carnival.

The new Carnival features a shorter front overhang, with the base of the A-pillar moved backwards to create a longer hood. Its increased wheelbase also contributes to greater space throughout the cabin.

No details have been mentioned on the powertrain, but reports in recent months have pointed to options that include the Hyundai group's 2.0 L 4-cylinder petrol hybrid system (229 PS/350 Nm combined) and 2.5 L turbo petrol engine (281 PS/421 Nm)

With an SUV-inspired design, it is no wonder then that some us at WapCar think it looks a bit like the Lincoln Aviator. We predicted a boxier look when we saw leaked images of the rear bumper, but the overall design is rather pleasing to the eyes.

Kia has only released these images with very little detail on the powertrain and features of the all-new Kia Carnival. Those are to be revealed soon.
