By George on May 1st, 2012

Kia has unveiled a long wheelbase version of their high selling Carnival MPV at the 2012 Beijing Auto Show called the Grand VQ-R , that will be exclusively available in the Chinese market.

The MPV features three rows of seats for up to seven passengers and a driver. The third row of seats can be folded below the luggage compartment floor to extend the storage capacity when required.

Power comes from a 194 horsepower 2.2-liter diesel unit also found in the European Kia Sorento, that is mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission.
