London Kia
Planning a summer road trip through Ontario with the family? Whether you're heading to a cottage, touring the Rockies, or exploring provincial parks, the right SUV can make all the difference. At London Kia, we’ve picked out three standout models: Kia Carnival, Kia Sorento, and Kia Sportage, that offer the cargo room, comfort, and road-trip-ready features Canadian families need.
The 2025 Kia Carnival is purpose-built for road trips with big families. It seats up to eight passengers comfortably, offering a spacious 2-3-3 seating configuration. Front passengers get 1,044 mm of legroom, second-row passengers enjoy 1,029 mm, and even third-row riders have 902 mm of legroom, which more than enough space for adults or teens on long drives.
Cargo capacity is where the Carnival really shines. You’ll get 1,139 litres of space behind the third row and up to a generous 4,110 litres when all rear seats are folded flat.. And with features like tri-zone automatic climate control, rear-seat USB ports, heated front seats, and optional VIP lounge seating, comfort isn’t an afterthought, it’s the main event.
The 2025 Kia Sorento hits the sweet spot between size and flexibility. This SUV offers seating for seven passengers, with second-row captain’s chairs or a bench seat available. Front-row legroom measures 1,052 mm, second row offers 1,060 mm, and the third row provides 754 mm—enough for kids or occasional adult use.
Cargo space behind the third row comes in at 357 litres. Fold that down and you’ll get 1,090 litres behind the second row or up to 2,139 litres with all rear seats flat. That makes it ideal for family getaways that require a little extra gear.
What makes the Sorento so road-trip friendly is its mix of comfort and tech. Heated front seats and a heated steering wheel are standard, while available options include a panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, and a premium Bose® audio system. Whether you're commuting or heading to the coast, it makes every trip feel first-class.
For smaller families or active couples, the 2025 Kia Sportage delivers big features in a compact footprint. It seats five passengers, with class-leading legroom of 1,052 mm in front and 1,050 mm in the rear. That’s impressive space for a compact SUV, ensuring everyone has room to stretch out.
The cargo area offers 1,121 litres behind the rear seats and opens up to a solid 2,098 litres when the second row is folded down. If you’re heading off the grid, camping with kids, or just packing heavy for a weekend, you won’t feel short on space.
Comfort features include dual-zone automatic climate control, heated front seats, and available features like a heated windshield, panoramic sunroof, and Harman Kardon® sound system. A hands-free smart power liftgate adds extra convenience when your hands are full. All-wheel drive is standard on most trims, and the Sportage can tow up to 2,500 lbs when properly equipped which means it can tackle different terrains with ease and carry more than enough for your needs.
