| Petrol engines (Kia Carnival) are generally cheaper to purchase and maintain, with simpler mechanics and consistent highway performance. Hybrid (Chrysler Pacifica) engines, on the other hand, provide significantly better fuel efficiency and lower emissions, especially in urban and stop-and-go traffic conditions. | |||

| Ground clearance: | 171 mm (6.7 inches) | 130 mm (5.1 inches) | |
| Because of the higher ground clearance, Kia Carnival can perform better on bad roads - it can go over higher obstacles and bumps. At the same time, the higher ground clearance can reduce stability and handling on paved roads, especially at higher speeds. Note, however, that this Kia Carnival version does not have 4x4 drive, which is very important in poor road conditions. | |||
