White Kia Carnival from a front three-quarter

White on Tan

Kia Carnival

Eight seats, sliding doors and a tan cabin — a van that stopped apologising for being one.

Kia drew this one to look like an SUV and then kept the sliding doors, which is the only part that matters.

The Carnival is eight seats in a better-looking shape: squared-off SUV proportions, a tan leather cabin, and behind it all the things only a van does — doors that slide, a flat floor, and eight seats nobody has to climb over.

White Kia Carnival from the rear three-quarter
01Long, flat and upright, with the rear door track hidden in the body side. Squared SUV proportions over a van’s doors.

The SUV shape is the look and the sliding doors are the point. Sliding rear doors open fully in a tight space, which is where a group with luggage actually loses time, and the flat floor means anybody can move front to back without stepping outside.

Inside it is trimmed in tan rather than the usual grey, and it feels a class above.

Drawn to look like an SUV.
Built with the doors of a van.

Refundable deposit
$350
A hold, not a charge, and released 5–7 business days after a clean return, longer only if there is damage to price.

Priced off the deposit rather than the rate. Your own qualifying full-coverage policy takes this line out of the quote entirely.
Driver, 21–24
$50 a day
Twenty-one is the floor, with a licence held two years. The higher band applies at or above a $1,500 deposit; this car is below it.
Shortest booking
24 hours
No maximum. Delivery is complimentary at our Robertson Boulevard lot and our four Beverly Hills partner hotels; LAX is $150 both ways with the car in the airport parking structure or $300 both ways to the terminal, half that for one direction.

Renting the Kia Carnival: the short answers

Can I book the Kia Carnival with a driver?
Yes. A chauffeur is from $100 an hour on a two-hour minimum, added to the car at its day rate — $514 for a four-hour evening in this car. No security deposit is taken on a chauffeured booking. The same car can be driven to the event and yours with the keys the morning after; the chauffeur service page has the runs and the hours.
What do I need to rent the Kia Carnival, and can international guests book?
A driver of 21 or over with a licence held at least two years — between 21 and 24 a young-driver fee of $50 a day applies on this car, and under 21 is considered case by case. A major credit card in the primary renter's name for the refundable hold, and cover for the car: your own full-coverage policy if it extends to a rental, or our Protection plan arranged with the booking. International guests rent on a passport and a home-country licence; no International Driving Permit is needed. The hold is released 5–7 business days after a clean return, longer only if there is damage to price. If the age floor or the cover is the thing in the way, the same car goes out with a driver instead — that booking asks neither of you.
Can the Kia Carnival be delivered to my hotel, my home or LAX?
Yes. Delivery is complimentary to the Beverly Wilshire, the Four Seasons at Doheny, L’Ermitage and the Maybourne, and collection from our Robertson Boulevard office costs nothing. LAX is $150 both ways with the car in the airport parking structure or $300 both ways to the terminal, half that for one direction. Any other address is priced by distance from the office, $75 one way inside 10 miles, and itemised on the quote before you pay.
How many miles are included, and can I take the Kia Carnival out of California?
Every car carries its own daily mileage allowance, and yours arrives in writing with the booking confirmation, together with the per-mile rate for anything over it. The car may leave the state — Las Vegas, Arizona, up the coast — as long as you tell us the plan in advance and keep the allowance in mind; it comes home to Los Angeles, since there is no one-way drop in another city.
What does a weekend in the Kia Carnival cost, and can I rent it by the hour?
$228 for two days and $342 for three, before the Protection plan, tax and any delivery — there is no separate weekend rate, and one day is the minimum on a Saturday too. The day is the shortest self-drive booking; by the hour, the car goes out with a driver, from $100 an hour on a two-hour minimum.
