BTW such a design flaw...the seats rails on the floor. How to put a proper floor mat..Malaysian weather and roads full of mud...car will be filled with dirt in no time with no proper floor mat! Obviously the car designed without a ladies input when it is the ladies that are making decisions on cars moving their kids and possibly ladies driving them...

The DRL is actually the small light , that you can turn on or off, with the switch at the lever. It doesn't turn on automatically during the day time when you start the engine. As such it gives the driver control over it.

Yes, there are some after market grills that you can change, but I think it will take some time before you can get them here in Malaysia, unless you buy directly from Korea or US and in websites like ebay

KX is 2 tone black and light grey. The lowest spec or the D model is also the same , however, the stock has not come in and will be based on order basis and longer lead time.

The rails allow the 2nd row seats to be pushed forward and folded in vertical position as shown in picture. This allow easy access for the passengers to the 3rd row seat. This is a great advantage , and thus allow the car to be an 8 seater instead of 7 seater by adding an extra seat in the middle of the 2nd row.

Nonetheless, if you are willing to sacrifice the middle 2nd row seat, you can remove the seat, and create an aisle in the middle so that passengers can have access to the 3rd row. When you do this, you don't have to bother about the rails on the floor or the sliding function of the 2nd row seats and you can buy "cut to size" coil mats to cover the entire floor of the vehicle.

So it is flexibility all around to suit your preference and needs, both for men and ladies.

That is probably the only setback. But all in all, the pros outweight the cons, in my opinion and in many reviews by car bloggers & critics in Malaysia.

Consumer already complaint it since Kia k5 model.
Kia k3 comes with double din radio, but look cheaper (ala made in china) type of radio, not similar like rest market for kia infotainment system.

Why kia malaysia still provide us old type radio? Why not using like rest kia model like in US etc.

Honda malaysia can do it.

Grand Carnival is currently a fully imported or CBU model. If Kia Malaysia were to bring in the big touch screen head unit from Korea, it is going to be very costly and the price of the car may increase by easily 7-8K or more, judging by our unfavourable currency exchange rate.

On the hand hand, Kia Cerato K3 is a FULLY local assembly model (CKD) including paint work at the plant in Gurun, hence it is feasible to outsource OEM head unit from China in bulk, which cost much less and allow the car to be priced competitively. The sales volume for Cerato is much higher, that is why it is a CKD programme.

For now, the solution for Grand Carnival head unit is to go with after market solutions. A sample unit photo is as attached below. Feel free to PM me if you are keen in the package + promotion.

The spare tyre is located at the underside of the car (RH, right below the 2nd row seating position). It is not at boot of the car, like most other cars.

The plan is there to do CKD in the near future. At this point, nobody knows if there will be any difference in the specs or pricing. However, it is unlikely that the pricing will differ by much, because KIA no longer has the national car status for special tax rebate, unlike the previous re-batching of Carnival to Naza Ria.
