(Dan Tri) – Most new cars launched in the Vietnamese market in March are high-riding vehicles and multi-purpose vehicles, with the cheapest model also costing over 1 billion VND.
Kia Carnival has 2 new versions
Instead of launching a mid-life upgraded version (facelift), in March, the Kia car distributor in Vietnam quietly added 2 new versions to the multi-purpose car model Carnival, with some changes in appearance.
The two new versions are 2.2D Luxury 7 seats and 2.2D Signature 7 seats – without sunroof, with prices of 1,169 billion VND and 1,349 billion VND respectively.

In addition, Thaco has adjusted the selling price for the 7-seat 2.2D Premium version, decreasing from VND 1,329 billion to VND 1,309 billion.
As the name suggests, the 7-seat Carnival 2.2D Signature without sunroof is said to be aimed at a group of customers who believe that a sunroof is unnecessary and not suitable for use in Vietnam.
In addition to not having a sunroof, this new version only has 6 regular speakers, instead of 12 Bose speakers like on the regular Signature version.
Meanwhile, the new standard 2.2D Luxury 7-seat version differs from the 8-seat Luxury version in the number of seats.
Carnival is currently the only medium-large MPV model in Vietnam with both gasoline and diesel engine options.
