Summer road trips across Quebec often mean long highway stretches, whether the destination is the Saguenay region or the Gaspé Peninsula. A multi-day trip like that asks a lot of any vehicle: enough range to cover ground between stops, fast charging that does not eat into vacation time, and enough cargo room for a family’s gear. The 2026 Kia EV9 is built around exactly those needs, with battery...
You've faced the familiar dilemma—choose a practical family hauler with ample space or opt for a premium vehicle with comforts you deserve. The Kia Carnival HEV proves this compromise belongs in the past, bringing exceptional refinement and versatility together in one impressively efficient package.
Luxury That Surprises
The Carnival HEV transforms your daily drive with thoughtful premium touches. The available dual 12.3" TFT screens create a panoramic command center that keeps information clear and controls intuitive. This digital cockpit rivals what you'd find in vehicles costing thousands more, putting essential information and entertainment at your fingertips.
Your second-row passengers enjoy a first-class experience with available VIP lounge seats. These power-reclining captain's chairs with leg rests and relaxation mode transform routine trips into rejuvenating experiences. Family life demands a lot from you—your vehicle should give something back.
The Digital Key 2 feature turns your smartphone into a secure key, allowing you to lock, unlock, and start your Carnival HEV without fumbling for a keyfob. This small but significant innovation reflects the thoughtful approach to luxury throughout the vehicle.
Practicality Perfected
Behind the refined design lies a family vehicle engineered for real life. The Carnival HEV offers up to 4,110 litres of cargo space when you need it, easily adapting from people-mover to cargo hauler in moments. The 3,000 lb towing capacity handles your recreational needs without compromise.
Your visibility remains clear regardless of passengers or cargo thanks to the full display digital rear-view mirror, which provides a panoramic view behind you even when the traditional mirror's view would be obstructed.
The multi-zone automatic climate control ensures every passenger travels in comfort, while integrated manual sunshades in the second and third rows protect younger passengers from sun glare—a practical touch that makes longer journeys more pleasant for everyone.
Hybrid Efficiency
The Carnival HEV doesn't just look sophisticated—it thinks ahead. The hybrid powertrain delivers 242 hp and 270 lb-ft of torque while achieving impressive fuel economy ratings of 6.9/7.6/7.2 L/100km (city/highway/combined). This efficiency translates to fewer stops during your family adventures and reduced fuel costs throughout your ownership.
The smooth power delivery from the combined 1.6L turbo engine and electric motor provides confident acceleration when merging or passing, ensuring your precious cargo travels securely.
Interior Intelligence
Inside, the Carnival HEV adapts to your family's changing needs. The easy walk-in second row with auto fold and slide functions simplifies access to the third row—essential when managing younger children or older family members.
Storage solutions throughout the cabin keep essentials organized and accessible. Thoughtful details like the third-row seat back hook, front seat back pockets, and cargo net hooks help maintain order during busy family schedules.
The available Bose Premium Audio system transforms your cabin into a concert hall, while heated and ventilated front and second-row seats ensure year-round comfort for everyone.
The Carnival HEV proves that luxury isn't about compromise—it's about intelligent design that enhances your family's experience while respecting your practical needs.
