Reportedly the new Carnival will share its platform with the all new Kia Sorento which is also on the verge of making its debut. Like the existing model, the 4th gen Carnival will be available in three- and four-row seating layouts. As for engines, in addition to conventional petrol and diesel options, a plug-in hybrid version will also be available in some markets.

Kia marked their comeback in Pakistan with the launch of 3rd gen Grand Carnival in 2018. Available with a 3.3 liter V6 engine, the Kia Grand Carnival comes in 2 trims– LX and EX and is priced at PKR 48.99 lac and PKR 64.99 lac respectively. It will obviously take a couple of years for the company to consider bringing in the all new Grand Carnival in Pakistan.
