South Korean car manufacturer Kia is expected to launch two new cars in India this year and this will include the new Carnival as well as the EV9 flagship electric SUV. While the new-generation of the Carnival is expected to offer some changes over its predecessor, the EV9 will be the first seven-seater electric SUV offered by the company. The new generation of the Kia Carnival has been launched in the global market and it is time to make its entry into India.

There is an eight-speed automatic transmission on offer and it is front-wheel drive. In India, we might get a 2.2-litre diesel engine just like its earlier version. On the other hand, the Kia EV9 is the flagship electric SUV by the company and it will be available 7–seater layout in India. It is expected that the SUV will be launched in June 2024. The SUV is expected to cost Rs 80 lakh or above.
