2023 Kia Carnival
The 2023 Carnival had its clearest appeal where eight-seat practicality, sliding-door access and family comfort outweighed novelty. The relevant VFACTS line shows 11,312 Australian sales for the calendar year. That made it relevant to shoppers wanting a sensible vehicle for commuting, family use, work or weekend errands. Buyers would also have looked at the Hyundai Staria and large seven-seat SUVs.
