The Kia Carnival MPV returns to Bob Moore Kia for 2027, carrying more room for passengers and gear than any Kia SUV in the lineup. Kia calls it an MPV instead of a minivan, and the styling backs that up with sharper lines than you’ll find in a traditional minivan. The Carnival MPV slots above the Telluride for interior volume, so we’d choose it if you’re going to make daily use of the third row. In our guide below, we’ll preview the powertrain, seating layouts, and technology that separate the trims on the 2027 Kia Carnival MPV for sale in Oklahoma City. Take a look at our new Kia inventory to see which configurations are in stock. Visit Bob Moore Kia to see the 2027 Carnival MPV in person today!
2027 Carnival MPV Performance and Efficiency
Every 2027 Kia Carnival MPV runs a 3.5L V6 making 287 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque, and it’s paired with an 8-speed automatic that drives the front wheels. On paper, the Kia Carnival MPV’s fuel efficiency lands at an EPA-estimated 18 mpg city, 26 mpg highway, and 21 mpg combined. That’s the honest cost of moving eight people and their luggage in a single trip. Need to tow on occasion, too? Properly equipped, the Carnival MPV pulls up to 3,500 pounds with trailer brakes, so you’re covered for a small camper or a pair of jet skis. Second-row seats slide out and come out entirely, and the third row splits 60/40 and folds flat. Schedule a test drive at Bob Moore Kia and see how it settles on the highway.
2027 Kia Carnival MPV Trim Levels and Seating
Three rows come standard on every Kia Carnival MPV, but the passenger capacity varies by trim. The LX seats seven while the LXS is built for eight. The trims above them all start with room for eight, and you get captain’s chairs in the middle row for the seven-passenger layout on any of them. Cargo runs from 40.2 cubic feet behind the third row to 145.1 cubic feet with all seats folded. Kia claims best-in-class figures for both passenger volume and cargo space.
This year, the Kia Carnival MPV trim levels break down as follows:
| Trim Level: |
MSRP: |
| Kia Carnival MPV LX |
$37,490 |
| Kia Carnival MPV LXS |
$39,490 |
| EX |
$41,690 |
| Kia Carnival MPV SX |
$46,590 |
| Kia Carnival MPV SX Prestige |
$51,590 |
Hands-free power sliding doors, tri-zone automatic climate control, and a 12.3-inch touchscreen with navigation are standard across the board, so you’re well equipped even on the LX. Move up to the LXS and you’ll add Slide-Flex second-row seating along with heated front seats up front. The EX adds a smart power liftgate, and the SX layers on dual sunroofs and a set of panoramic displays. At the top, the SX Prestige brings leather, a heated steering wheel, and Dark Edition styling. You can also option VIP Lounge Seats with heating, ventilation, and a power leg extension. We’d point most families toward the EX, where the smart power liftgate and eight-passenger seating cover the everyday grocery run.

New Carnival MPV Technology and Safety
Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard on every trim, but there are also a couple of features here built specifically for parents. Passenger View puts a camera on the back rows so you don’t have to turn around to see what’s happening, and Passenger Talk pipes your voice through the rear speakers. The SX and SX Prestige add a Blind-Spot View Monitor, a 360-degree Surround View Monitor, and Highway Driving Assist 2 for long highway stretches. Audio steps up to a 12-speaker Bose system on the top trim, and you’ll get an 11-inch head-up display with it. Every Carnival MPV is backed by Kia’s 10-year, 100,000-mile warranty program, and that’s coverage you’ll appreciate on a vehicle this size.
