Unlock the Future of Family Driving with the Kia Carnival Hybrid

As Kia's first-ever electrified 'Life Utility Vehicle,' the 2025 Carnival Hybrid introduces a groundbreaking hybrid powertrain that promises to redefine the way families experience the open road. Here are three ways this new powertrain changes the game when it comes to family driving.

Hybrid Power, Optimized for Family Adventures

At the heart of the Carnival Hybrid beats a harmonious fusion of power and eco-friendliness. Under the hood, a 1.6 turbocharged engine generates a potent 242 horsepower and 271 lb-ft of torque, mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission. However, it's the addition of a 54kW drive motor – boasting the highest output of any Kia hybrid – that truly sets this system apart. This dynamic duo ensures ample power for tackling daily driving demands while maximizing fuel efficiency, making it the perfect companion for families seeking adventure without compromise.

Regenerative Braking: Amplifying Efficiency, Mile After Mile

The Carnival Hybrid's commitment to efficiency extends far beyond its powertrain. Kia has thoughtfully incorporated multiple levels of regenerative braking, empowering drivers to choose their desired level of energy recuperation. This innovative feature not only enhances driving convenience but also maximizes energy savings, stretching every mile and reducing the need for frequent fill-ups. With regenerative braking, families can enjoy the freedom of extended journeys while minimizing their environmental impact.

Cutting-Edge Convenience Features, Designed for Families

For families constantly on-the-go, the Carnival Hybrid's exclusive features bring unparalleled convenience to the forefront. The cutting-edge Shift by Wire technology eliminates the traditional gear shifter, replacing it with an intuitive shift-by-wire system for a clutter-free cabin. Additionally, the available Remote Smart Parking Assist takes the stress out of maneuvering into tight spaces, allowing drivers to effortlessly park the vehicle with the touch of a button – from inside or outside the car.

Beneath its eco-friendly exterior lies a dedication to safety that families can rely on. The Carnival Hybrid is equipped with an array of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), including Forward Collision Avoidance Assist 2.0. This cutting-edge technology not only warns of potential collisions but can also automatically assist with braking and evasive steering, providing an extra layer of protection for precious cargo.

The 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid represents a true revolution in family transportation, seamlessly blending efficiency, performance, and convenience into one remarkable package. With its innovative hybrid powertrain, thoughtful energy-saving features, and advanced safety systems, this 'Life Utility Vehicle' is poised to unlock the future of family driving.

The Carnival Hybrid is slated to arrive at dealerships this summer, following the release of the gas-powered Carnival model this spring. Contact us today to learn more about this electrifying addition to Kia's lineup and how it can elevate your family's journey.
