Today, vans are experiencing an uptick in popularity, and one of the big factors driving this change is an unlikely source: SUVs.
use the words “van” or “minivan,” instead referring to the Carnival as a “multi-purpose vehicle.” Kia even went so far to say the Carnival filled “the unoccupied space between SUV and family hauler” – a niche we didn’t know existed – touting the van’s “bold and boxy SUV-like design.”
Silly as that sounds, the thing is, it worked. Through the course of 2021, Kia sold 25,155 Carnivals, besting the number of Sedonas sold in 2020, 2019, 2018 and 2017. "The design helped with the visibility," said Joseph Choi, Kia’s product strategy manager for the Carnival."We took everything that makes this type of vehicle compelling but then hit on an area of design that kind of expanded the appeal." That should only get stronger as the Carnival moves through its lifecycle, too.
“As good as the car looks, I'm already very excited about the next iteration of its design," Choi said.
