Kia Carnival v Hyundai Palisade v Nissan Pathfinder 2023 comparison review: Best 8-seat family car?

[@ntumbathabisomnguni79]

Great comparison review 👏

[@tempestv8]

Why doesn't the Kia in Australia come with the digital instrumentation like USA spec Carnival MPV? Also, I much prefer the traditional gear shifter, which is found in the USA model, unlike the rotary knob shifter in Australia.

[@hotwings9382]

Covid electronic shortages on the right-hand drive is the reason. Its also missing auto wipers.

Im 60yr, from the UK. Family-of-six holidays from essex to wales or scotland, and many places in between, were done in a VW beetle😁 when we moved to Australia first family car was holden kingswood😊 more room for those trips to grandparents in swan hill or family trips up the coast to various spots, incl. QLD, but none of comforts of these cars😁 im not a parent but i can see why these vehicles would be much more appealing than a kingswood or beetle😁 although its funny what you can cope with or put up with if need be😁

[@karla5996]

Amazing thank you guys!

Great review guys. But I still dont see why Rich and Emily need 8 seater car from this review. All the test can be done the same on 7 seater. I suppose what I want to see is out of the 3, which one accomodate 8 people the best (in comfort, space, is the performance the same when in full load, etc). Anyway, maybe next time 😊

Carnival is technically not a SUV like the Palisade and the Pathfinder.

[@MrKingsempoi]

Palisade n pathfinder are both big suv.should compare with kia telluride not carnival.karnival is a mpv

[@d3n0tz_]

We didnt get Telluride here in Australia. So cant compare

[@Rollaroundtap]

Where’s the ldv Mifa?

[@retromummy]

Our new Kia Carnival is being towed back to the dealership for a 2nd time in its first 5 months as it loses all power while accelerating in hot weather. It was supposedly fixed but happened less than 1 week earlier and is going to cause a serious accident stopping in the middle of the road. I am warning people to be careful - seems to also be an issue for people in Canada in freezing temperatures. Diesel model only.

[@ceosealemon]

The latest minivan diesel car is required to make sure it is filled with urea.

[@kylosolo6128]

So avoid the Nissan, got it

[@Karl-Benny]

Last review i saw the carnival got 17 per 100

[@romemancer7905]

Shopping centre carpark battle more like it...i found a parking bay but i cant open my doors...LOL...SUVs are bigger but parking bays are not...Most moms will find these near impossible to park...this takes the shine off owning big SUVs...Get real people !!!

[@twinrotors]

Why would you not go with the diesel engines for palisade and Carnival… V6s are ancient

[@TundeEszlari]

Nice video.

[@Karl-Benny]

Not much improvements since 2016 ford territory 4 litre petrol or Diesel 7 seat

[@StigsSlovakCousin]

Uh, Emily and Richard in one review 🥳👍

[@herogreat2797]

2nd seat high Pathfinder: too tall Carnival: which is good I know this biased vid has no value to me. Still can be used as a reference tho

[@chrunilee459]

how's the carnival 65800??

[@chrunilee459]

to clarify.. have not seen it south of 70k.. ever.

[@gertrudespants]

​@@chrunilee459It depends if you are buying a showroom model or ordering one. We put in an order for a diesel Special Edition (platinum minus Bose sound system and ventilated seats), $65k driveaway with a towbar. They have a 6-9 month wait time though, so all the floor stock is heavily marked up to take advantage of that.

[@smsfsyd]

​@@gertrudespants If you don't mind me asking, did you haggle price? Or haggling is a taboo word now because we live in the car shortage world 😅?

[@junaidbangash2095]

its very bias, pathfinder is really great vehicle. you guys are unnecessarily harsh to it.

[@abwk3478]

Agree with you. Did a test drive and bought a Pathfinder and it is a great car. Japanese made, reliable, great resale value, luxury and excellent ride quality with very quiet cabin noise. All against the reviewer. If you want honest good reviews, watch Carwow(Matt) of CarExpert (Paul) google reviews and you see completely opposite reviews and real comments.

[@vigilant069]

Can you suggest best family car ( 7 seater ) with good off road capability . Budget :- 50k

[@gertrudespants]

Assuming a new car and by 'good off-road' you mean having a 4WD system with low range and decent ground clearance/towing, probably a SsangYong Rexton ELX is your best bet ($49k driveway). $50k isn't much of a budget these days unfortunately. Pajero Sport could also work, if you don't really plan to use the 3rd row (it is very cramped and the boot basically disappears when in use).

[@jameskim9909]

Ssang yong Rexton 😊

[@sydneyaustralia2011]

Stop assuming it's all about families lol pls. Sooooo many single people with friends use this

[@ReyesRjM777]

This review seems more like, "What is better, more practical for a family? An SUV or a people mover". Of course the carnival will win. Why don't you compare 'like' cars? Compare a Carnival to an Odyssey.
