I'm presently staying successful Australia, truthful that made maine comparison the prices
The taxation connected CBUs should beryllium reduced for sure. Even Australia has nary manufacturing units locally and CBUs are imported. But the pricing is simply a batch amended here.
Difference betwixt developed state vs processing state I guess.

Well the CBU taxes were kept to support the section players who instrumentality the effort to manufacture their cars present successful India, supply jobs arsenic good arsenic lend to the section improvement successful galore ways . But one judge Australia doesn't request to support thing arsenic their section players are negligible.

Re: 2024 Kia Carnival Review


The car looks precise bully from each the photos. The acceptable and decorativeness is good. All the tech is arsenic per the latest procreation cars. However I foresee fewer concerns for the imaginable extremity users.

1. The past enactment does not look to beryllium large capable to acceptable 3 people. So is this lone a 6 seater car.
2. The motor show is capable but not exciting. For 75 lakhs connected road, 0-100 successful 10.7 seconds is unacceptable. A Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder AT volition beryllium doing 11.99 seconds successful the powerfulness mode. (Link). How volition you consciousness erstwhile a elemental wide marketplace car is overtaking you.
3. If the erstwhile mentation of Kia Carnival was retailing beneath 40 lakhs, arsenic a user I neglect to recognize wherefore to wage Rs 75 lakhs for the caller version. As specified determination are nary important exertion upgrades (read engine) which requires truthful overmuch premium.

I whitethorn wage Rs 75 lakhs if I person excess wealth successful my pouch (read politician) and privation to person a standout car with large roadworthy beingness connected the road. But luxury buyers? Not sure.

If you announcement our thrust report, your presumption goes against our observations.

Since I ain a Diesel Tucson based connected the aforesaid N3 platform, astir each of the driving controls were excessively acquainted to me.

Do announcement that the Carnival is 2270kg vs the 1600kg of Tucson, portion having besides akin bhp/torque specs. So, we did expect it to beryllium sluggish. However, it was not sluggish astatine all, unless you effort to thrust it similar a sports car. But it is meant to beryllium a chauffeur driven car, truthful we drove it similar one. That means creaseless acceleration, and it responded precise well. Overtakes were a breeze, we ne'er had to struggle. If you thrust it similar an MPV, you can't truly kick astir the engine.

We discussed this with KIA. As we understand, it is truly astir positioning. Being a SKD, they program to import lone 300/month and that is the presumption they person chosen connected the request curve. It is rather superior to top-end Fortuner, and the customers who tin wage the other premium volition admit what it offers implicit Fortuner.
