Kia has been one of the most popular brands when it comes to SUVs. The luxury and the ruggedness its cars offer have been highly talked about by its customers. And even when it comes to 7-seater SUVs, Kia does not fail to deliver. Anyone considering purchasing a 7-seater Kia SUV should look into what each model can offer in terms of specs and features to make an informed decision.

Kia Sorento
The Sorento is a luxury SUV from Kia that prioritizes space and comfort, making it an ideal choice for families. One of the ways in which it promises exceptional comfort is with its power seats that have cushion support, heating, and ventilation. Unlike most cars, the Sorento also provides separate fans and vents to the third row with a complete control panel. Here are the seating dimensions offered by the Kia Sorento across all eight trims:

• Headroom: 40.3 inches in the first row, 39.1 inches in the second row, and 36.8 inches in the third row.

Kia Carnival
The Kia Carnival is known for its exterior appeal as well as plush interiors. To ensure the utmost luxurious experience for its passengers, it features a unique “one-touch relaxation mode” in the second-row seats. This means, with just one touch, second-row passengers can sit with the seats fully reclined, footrests raised, and seat heating and ventilation turned on.

With the second and third-row seats folded, the volume can be extended up to 145.1 cubic feet. So shopping trips with this SUV are made extra easy. Like the Sorento, the Carnival also offers various driver-assist features, such as:

• Forward collision-avoidance assist with pedestrian detection
• Blind-spot view monitor
• Highway driving assist
• Surround view monitor.

Kia Telluride
