Changed for 2027
Rear Seat Entertainment Moves to Hybrid
Kia now reserves the Rear Seat Entertainment package for the Hybrid SX Prestige only — this gas trim no longer offers it, a departure from the prior model year.
Available VIP Lounge Seats
This is the Carnival’s signature comfort option, offered only on SX Prestige and carried over unchanged for 2027.

You give up the 8th seat for a 7-passenger, first-class-style layout with power-adjustable comfort built for long stretches of highway. Note that Rear Seat Entertainment isn’t bundled in here for 2027 (details above) — that feature now belongs solely to the Hybrid SX Prestige.

Carnival SX Prestige FAQs
How Much Does the 2027 Kia Carnival SX Prestige Cost?⌄
Plan on $51,590 MSRP to start, before the $1,545 destination fee — that makes it the priciest Carnival trim, roughly $100 above the 2026 version. Check live SX Prestige inventory to see today’s actual transaction price once current offers are applied.
Does the 2027 SX Prestige Still Offer Rear Seat Entertainment?⌄
It doesn’t — Kia now reserves the optional Rear Seat Entertainment package for the Hybrid SX Prestige only. This gas-powered SX Prestige no longer offers it, unlike the prior model year.
What Are VIP Lounge Seats?⌄
These are optional 2nd-row captain’s chairs with power recline, leg rests, heating, and ventilation — a first-class, airplane-style setup that replaces the middle seat for a 7-passenger arrangement.
