FactKia stretched the fourth Carnival by just 40mm overall, riding on a wheelbase only 30mm longer.
The fourth-generation Carnival (KA4) debuted in June 2020 on Hyundai-Kia's N3 mid-size platform, shared with the Kia Sorento (MQ4), and went on sale in South Korea in September 2020. It is 40 mm longer than its predecessor on a 30 mm longer wheelbase and is built at Gwangmyeong (Sohari) and in China, Vietnam and Malaysia. A facelift was revealed on 27 October 2023, adding a 1.6-litre turbo hybrid to the 3.5-litre V6, 2.0-litre turbo and 2.2-litre diesel engines.

This Presage minivan shares its underlying platform with the Teana sedan and the North American Murano crossover — one architecture doing three very different jobs.
Subaru's family-hauling Exiga got an unlikely STi treatment in 2009 — front spoiler, sport muffler, tighter suspension and a leather Momo wheel — but only 300 were ever built.
YRV stands for Young Recreational Vehicle, a mini MPV built to out-handle its own segment rivals.
The Terraza was Buick's first-ever minivan for the North American market - a badge-engineered cousin of the Chevrolet Uplander, Pontiac Montana SV6, and Saturn Relay.

Its steeply sloped windshield gave the Lumina APV one of the deepest dashboards ever fitted to a mass-produced car.
The first Presage wasn't really its own car underneath — most of its parts came straight from the Nissan R'nessa, with more shared with its platform twin, the Bassara.
