Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Kia Carnival
- Second-row VIP lounge seats with power recline, leg rests, and ventilation offer great comfort.
- The overall package is very much feature-loaded, with all the creature comforts covered.
- Accommodates up to 7 passengers comfortably, with ample legroom and headroom across all rows.
- Offers 540 litres of boot space even with all three rows up, suitable for long family trips.
Toyota Innova Crysta
- Great space: It is one of the most spacious MPVs for the price, which offers good space for 7 adults
- Practical cabin: Offers great storage spaces, AC vents in all three rows, and rear cupholders
- Capable powertrain: Comes with a powerful and efficient diesel engine with a rear-wheel-drive setup
- Necessary equipment: Gets all the required features like auto AC and a touchscreen that you’ll need for your daily drives
- Reliable family car: Comes with Toyota’s reliable and future proof engineering

Kia Carnival
- Priced at Rs 63.91 lakh (ex-showroom), it may be out of reach for many potential buyers.
- Available only in the fully-loaded Limousine Plus variant, and only in 2 colour options, White and Black, restricting choices for customisation.
- Lacks a petrol or hybrid option in the Indian market, which could be a drawback for some buyers.
- The 2.2-litre diesel engine offers a claimed mileage of 14.85 kmpl, which might be less economical for city driving.
Toyota Innova Crysta
- Less powertrain options: Misses out on a petrol engine and an automatic powertrain
- A little too expensive: Prices have gone up since its introduction and feel high for the feature list on offer
- The ride quality feels a little jumpy when driving with low load
