The Kia Carnival (KV-II) is one of the Kia entries the open record knows by name, and by little else. That is not nothing: a name in the catalogue is where a car's story starts to be recoverable.

Where it sits

Its Kia stablemates include the Kia K5 (Optima) and the Kia Magentis.

What it costs now

The money question first: $22,400–$41,500 is the typical asking range today, and running it — fuel and maintenance at its age — costs about $3,699–$7,055 a year. Insurance sits around $1,520–$2,300 a year. The figures are class-level estimates from the federal record, with the formula on the methodology page; the model-year pages carry complaints, recalls and repair costs year by year.

The record

The open record for the Kia Carnival (KV-II) carries no verified engine, output, weight or price yet. MotorJury does not fill gaps with guesses; this entry gives the model a home in the catalogue and grows as sourced specifications and photographs arrive. Corrections: corrections@motorjury.com.
