 The Best Kia Models for Families

Premium Suite of Safety Features

All Kia vehicles come with Kia Drive Wise, including advanced driving assistance tools like Auto Emergency Braking and Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance Assist. With smart tools to help warn and potentially intervene if a collision is likely, along with cameras and monitors to help detect hazards from any direction, Kia is investing in smart technology to help keep your family safe.

In their established and thorough safety ranking system, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) ranked the Kia Sportage, Kia Carnival, and Kia Sorento as Top Safety Picks for 2023, indicating excellent collision and safety ratings. The Kia Telluride was ranked a 2023 Top Safety Pick+, which designates it as one of the best safety choices in its category.

Space for Everyone and Everything

The midsize SUV Kia Telluride offers standard third-row seating for up to eight passengers. The optional second-row captain’s chairs offer best-in-class legroom, and the third-row split bench folds fully or partially flat, so you can adjust your seating and cargo to fit whatever or whoever you need to carry. The slightly smaller Sorento seats up to six with standard third-row seating. The Sportage is a smaller crossover option, with best-in-class second-row legroom and seating for five, plus ample cargo room.

The Carnival MPV replaces the minivan of years past. With a best-in-class cargo area, a third row that folds flat into the floor, and a removable second row, the Carnival is the most adaptable family vehicle. The interior was designed with a family in mind, with charging ports, smart power doors, ultra-comfortable lounge seating, and room for everyone’s gear.

Technology and Entertainment Options

All Kia models come with Kia Connect and a touchscreen console that allows access to smartphones through Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. You can connect your phone to your car’s system to access media through your touchscreen. The interior sound system has been engineered to be isolated to the front seats if the back seats are listening to their own devices or trying to sleep.

Kia offers a rear-seat entertainment system for the Carnival, Telluride, and Sorento as an optional upgrade. The system includes two headrest-mounted monitors and two remotes, plus USB ports so each can be tuned to different entertainment, or they can be used to play mirrored entertainment from another device.
