Touch wood.Ĭarnival performed extremely well. So, because ANCAP is somewhat compromised in this regard, I’ll give you a quick overview of how Carnival performed and where it went right and wrong.Įssentially, these are the two most common crash scenarios you’re probably going to be involved in in a crash, if you’re that unfortunate, of course. Those of you familiar with my channel will know I’ve kinda had it in for ANCAP in recent times for their lack of competence in developing a straight-forward, easily digestible rating system for the average consumer. This is, of course, important to know - before you spend the big bucks. My fortnight in Kia Carnival was split equally between the V6 petrol Platinum and the 2.2 turbo-diesel Platinum, so you can get an idea which powertrain is going to suit you best.Ĭarnival is not perfect - no car is - so the purpose for bringing you the hate, as as well as the love, is A) hate balances out (and legitimises) the love, and B) it alerts you to the things you might not ultimately like about the vehicle, which might matter more to you than they do to me. Something many of its potential customers probably don’t feel these days, folding endless washing and mashing potatoes en masse. Except for one thing - this time around, the fourth Carnival, Kia has actually made it look pretty sexy. In the context of what this vehicle claims to be, it’s a very faithful execution indeed. The 2021 Kia Carnival is better than an SUV, for most people. There are thousands of families out there squashing, cramping and folding themselves into their fashionably meagre seven-seat SUV, when they should be using a Carnival for moving their three or more kids around, especially in the diesel. The Kia Carnival has always been a vehicle I want to detest, overall, because it’s a people mover.
