Kia Carnival will have no heirs

Kia Carnival does not have heirs and left the scene in 2011. Was reported by the English site Autocar, quoting a source inside the Korean house. He is currently on the market the second generation of the MPV with seven seats large and its abolition would be linked to the constant dimunizione of sales not only of the car, but also of this type of. The article speaks of a decision on the British market, where it is sold as a Kia Sedona. But it is very likely that the Carnival will disappear from the lists of all the markets of the Old Continent. Moreover, in a period where the abatement of CO2 emissions and the spread of downsizing are becoming the cardinal points of the automobile industry, a car like the Kia Carnival is decidedly anachronistic.

Frankfurt Motor Show: Kia

Three world premieres for continuing the favorable trend: Kia’s sales in the period from January to August increased by 8.5% compared to corresponding 2008, and the manufacturer feeds its growth by introducing or renewing basic patterns in the logic of the range.

There is the Cee’d restyling, equipped with six-speed manual transmission and system start / stop ISG, there is the new Sorento, SUV “rethink” compared to the previous generation.

Decreases tonnage (although growing length) and well-haul 215 pounds weight, with minimal CO2 emissions of 171 grams of CO2 per kilometer, the Sorento is also the third Kia to get five stars in crash tests Euro NCAP. The latest addition is the Come, compact MPV derived from the prototype N ° 3. From which it differs in the natural trivialization of the details, even if the pitch of 2.615mm is a plus not indifferent.
