How powerful is the new Kia Carnival?

2022 Kia Carnival engine specs and towing capacity

We just can’t stop admiring the all-new Kia Carnival, which is just now arriving on dealership lots across the country to replace the Sedona as a large Multi-Purpose Vehicle (MPV) fit for the entire family. If you have been on the fence about making the leap from a sedan to something larger and you’ve been considering SUVs or minivans, the Carnival may be right up your alley. It offers the kind of space you can expect for passengers and cargo in a minivan while also providing the utility you expect in a traditional SUV, including engine power. Let’s take a closer look at the 2022 Kia Carnival engine specs and towing capacity. 

Engine horsepower and torque

The 2022 Kia Carnival is offered in four trims: LX, EX, SX, and SX Prestige. The LX even has sort of a sub-trim called the LX Seat Package, where you can pair the LX features with eight-passenger seating instead of the standard seven available in the LX. No matter which trim level you choose, however, you will be offered the same impressive 3.5-liter V6 engine capable of delivering 290 horsepower and 262 lb.-ft of torque. With that kind of power at your command, every drive behind the wheel of the Carnival will feel spirited and confident. 

Maximum towing capacity

With its bulk and engine power, you would think that the Carnival has a remarkable towing capacity, and you would be right! The 2022 Carnival can tow as much as 3,500 pounds when it is properly equipped. Factor that in with its impressive passenger and cargo capacities, and you have yourself an ideal vehicle for family vacations, moving day, or even just the weekly drive to the grocery store.
