    Now I appreciate doing review on This trim instead of the higher one... coz everyone does that... I wanted to see what the lower trim looks & feels like. So this is what I was waiting for. Thanks Ben. Just a suggestion though if you could add a slow pan view of the interiors.. coz every detail matters when it comes to deciding about the vehicles. Like for example Even the XLE Sienna Hybrid third row only left side has USB with only 2 cup holders & left third row is just blunt.. Little details... coz Sienna XLE runs at about 42k-44k. This LX trim from KIA is way better. Yes Hybrid has MPG but only V4. I would love to try Kia Carnival all trims.

    Love how Kia keeps reinventing each car that it replaces. The K5, Sorento, updated Stinger, and now this show that Kia is very aggressive in offering premium products but still at a value price. I really think the Carnival shows best in dark colors like this blue, as it allows all of the details to pop. The only small quibble for me on the outside is they did not hide the door track up higher underneath the rear glass, instead cheapened out and stamped it into thr body work. And those seats aren't leather, rather leatherette that will crack over time in something like a minivan due to high usage. Other than that, Kia has a homerun.

    • @fleuger99

      Leatherette will last way longer than cloth seat and requires no maintenance like leather would.

      All the premium trims have 19 inch wheels. Looks cool,helps with handling, but tires subject to bubbles if you hit any potholes, thus higher maintenance cost.

      I got the outgoing Sedona and some people find it's abit firm over bumps with the 19" rims, the 17" and 18" had a more balanced feel while being comfort but still very agile within its segment.. plus 17" for winter tyres there is more options, cheaper and soaks up rough winter roads alot better..

  • @th.8868
    @th.8868 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Here's what I'd like to see/focus because I've read about it and havent seen ANY CHANNELS that went over these features. Small details count! I like the fact that the actual floor is completely flat in vehicles like the prior sienna (the 2022 sienna messed it up by not allowing the removing of the mid row seats, big mistake), and the Pacifica has a flat floor when you stow the mid row, and the floor on the new Carnival is completely flat. Why is this important because in vehicles like the Odyssey (which I have) i like a custom seating for our needs so we remove the mid row seats except 1 seat so that other passengers that want to sit in the back do not constantly have to slide forward the other mid row seat (which wouldnt work anyways if you have a baby seat in it, so complete waste in the new Sienna on that). Also i measured (about 3.5 inches) you miss out on those large plastic/metal base that holds the Odyssey seats and this takes away standing height when trying to enter the vehicle into the back row!!! Now i know why the Pacific feels so large when getting in/out. I think this will give a major advantage of comfort to the new Carnival. Also, because the seats are easy to change out and the floor is completely flat, I read that you can actually flip the seats around in the mid row to look towards the back!!! Please show this!! Then my toddler wouldnt complain that he cant see mommy sitting in the back row next to baby.

      @th.8868 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@supertrooper73 I've been told differently. all trims below the top trim offer removable mid row correct? Which simply means if you can remove them (which I'm sure you can), you can turn them around. The only one you cant I believe is the top trim, which is because it's wired w/ electrical connections similar to the toyota sienna.

    • @supertrooper73

      Sure - you can remove the second row seats but the latches to place said seats to face the rear are blocked directly from the factory here in the states, however, there are youtube videos showing how to get around this. Cheers.
