Honda Odyssey vs Kia Carnival MPV

Cargo Room for Big Trips

Coming with seven standard seats and the option for eight, both the Honda Odyssey and Kia Carnival MPV had been made for big adventures with lots of passengers. Pack up your kids, their friends, and all your luggage, and embrace the versatility of these SUVs.

Have less passengers and need more space for your gear? On either vehicle, take advantage of the 60/40 split on the third-row seats for extra cargo volume. You’ll also have easy access to the back row when you fold up and slide out the removable second row seats.

Whether you need to pack up your luggage, your kid’s sports equipment, the family camping gear, or the whole kit and caboodle, you’ll have plenty of room. The Carnival MPV is ready to give you a maximum total of 145.1 cubic feet of cargo volume.

However, if you’re in the game of getting the most out of every inch, you’ll love the Honda Odyssey and its maximum cargo volume of 158 cubic feet.

Drive Safe in These SUVs

You want to keep all your passengers safe, which is why both SUVs come complete with advanced safety features and drive assists to help keep you attentive on the road, such as:

• Forward Collision Warning
• Lane Departure Warning
• Lane Keeping Assist System
• Multi-angle rearview camera 

Drive safely on the highway with the steering torque of the Lane Keeping Assist System that activates when it detects you straying from lane markers. Back up safely with the multi-angle rearview camera, alerting you to rear obstacles with beeps and interior display indicators.

Beyond all this, there’s more to the Honda Odyssey that sets it apart from the crowd.

For example, the Odyssey’s cameras and sensors can read the speed limit markers of the road using the Traffic Sign Recognition feature. When it detects a speed limit sign, it will post that number on your interior Driver Information Interface for your convenience, keeping you alert to the rules of the road you’re on.
