Pros Cons of Mercedes-Benz V-Class

Pros

  • Spacious And Luxurious
  • Loaded With Tech And Features
  • Decent Performance

Cons

  • Panel Van Design
  • Pricey Proposition
  • Few Variants

Verdict

The Mercedes-Benz V-Class maintains the quintessential van-like silhouette with its boxy proportions. Yet, it distinguishes itself with a series of bold character lines adorning the bonnet, front bumper, and vehicle profile. These design elements echo the sophistication and style typical of Mercedes' sedan range, infusing the V-Class with a sense of refined dynamism that elevates its overall visual appeal.

Pros Cons of Kia Carnival

Pros

  • Captain Seats In Limousine Variant Is A Must Buy
  • Great Ride Quality
  • Diesel-Automatic Combination Is Great

Cons

  • Poor Safety On Lower Variants
  • Low Ground Clearance
  • 9-Seater Variant Offers Little Practicality

Verdict

The Carnival comes to India as a Completely Knocked Down kit, and while it has all the makings of a benchmark MPV, its higher price tag and the fact that Kia is still a relatively new brand is making a lot of MPV buyers shy away from the product. That said, it is undoubtedly a solid product and if you are out looking for a large, premium, chauffeur-driven vehicle, that can also double up as a family car or maybe a workplace on wheels, then you must consider the Kia Carnival.
