Highlights

What stands out about the Carnival

For big families with even bigger dreams

The Carnival is hard to beat when it comes to intimate adventures, offering comfortable seating, plenty of space, lots of light, and the connectivity to keep you in touch with the rest of the world. Luxurious, practical and enhanced with the latest technology, the Carnival makes sure every family member is taken care of.

Game-changing design

Who said people movers can’t be beautiful? From the Carnival’s futuristic headlamps embedded into the tiger-nose grille, to the broad, dramatic stripe of the rear tail lamps, fresh details establish a luxurious new design vernacular among people movers. Sleek body lines serve an aerodynamic purpose, while the expansive windows and dual sunroof complement the cabin‘s feeling of openness.

Versatility to handle whatever the future brings

It’s hard to think of a more accommodating and flexible interior than this. Seating options let you fit up to eight people, while some or most seats can be removed to make way for cargo. You can even turn the walk-in (non-reclining) 2nd row seat to face backward, so occupants can see each other while they talk, limousine-style.
