The vehicles costing around Rs 30 lakh were procured by the Telangana State Road Transport Authority on the instructions of the Chief Minister.
Kia Carnival
Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao has given 32 Kia carnival gifts to the collectors. It has been given to the collectors to help them perform their duty and travel around the district. CM Rao inspected the vehicles and then on Sunday the vehicles were flagged off by Transport Minister Puvvada Ajay Kumar. He was accompanied by Chief Secretary Somesh Kumar and Deputy Transport Commissioner Papa Rao.
The Kia Carnival starts at Rs 24.95 lakh for the base variant and Rs 33.95 lakh for the top variant. It is being said that a total expenditure of Rs 10 crore has been incurred in giving these vehicles. Due to this the Telangana government is facing huge opposition.
The vehicles costing around Rs 30 lakh were procured by the Telangana State Road Transport Authority on the instructions of the Chief Minister. An official said the vehicles would help the additional collectors in their extensive tours of the villages as part of their duty. BJP officials opposed this decision saying that the Telangana government has a debt of Rs 40,000 crore and the country has also faced the pandemic. According to him, this is a waste of public money amid the pandemic.
Why is this great car of Kia special?
The Carnival is the most affordable premium MPV that you can currently buy in the Indian market. Many were shocked when Kia after the incredible success of the Seltos decided to launch an MPV which was a mid-sized SUV. However, the Carnival has sold out in good numbers. It comes with a host of great features like three-zone climate control, power sliding doors, leather upholstery, dual-pan sunroof and much more.
In the top-end variant, you get VIP seats for the second row. The VIP seats come with leg support, Nappa leather upholstery, rear-seat entertainment system and captain seat arrangement. A 2.2 liter diesel engine has been given in the Carnival. The engine produces 200PS of power and 440Nm of peak torque. It comes with 8 speed automatic transmission.
