Kia Carnival
This ultra-luxurious MPV is a 7-seater, available in just two colors: white and black. On the day bookings opened, 2,796 orders were placed, and around 554 orders have been placed in the last month and a half. It has turned out to be a massive success for Kia, as people who typically opt for entry-level German luxury cars are now switching to it.
The primary reason why it's taking so long to get delivered is that this is a CBU unit, assembled at the Anantapur plant in Arunachal Pradesh. Additionally, according to a report by an esteemed media house, Kia is looking to increase production to meet the rising demand.

Verdict
The Kia Carnival is a fantastic product, a leap ahead of the previous generation in terms of features, luxury, and comfort. People who were planning to buy the Mercedes E-Class, BMW 3 Series LWB, or Audi A6 are now waiting for their Carnival to be delivered. This is because, at an on-road price of 70 lakh, the Koreans are offering a 7-seater option, with the second-row seats feeling like those in a first-class airplane cabin. Plus, it comes packed with some top-class features.
