The premium limousine was recently updated by the Korean auto giant for the Indian market
The Kia Carnival Limousine has garnered immense interest from potential buyers with 400 deliveries already completed within the first two months. That is a huge number for a vehicle which costs a whopping Rs 63.90 lakh, ex-showroom. This time around the Korean car marque has taken the premium quotient to a whole new level. As a result, the opulent MPV has gathered 3,350 bookings and the waiting period is over 6 months. Available in just two colour options, the car has a balanced demand for both.
