carnival sli vs platinum

The Carnival SLi and Platinum are siblings who share the same sensible shoes, but one wears a flashier watch.

Both haul eight humans with ease; the difference is how pampered those humans feel.

• Pros: Strong value with the family essentials and safety tech covered; ride comfort that keeps everyone civil.
• Cons: Misses premium niceties like higher-grade audio, surround cameras and fancy trim you’ll spot in the brochures.

• Pros: Loads of luxury and tech (think bigger wheels, extra driver aids, sunroof and seat ventilation depending on year/option).
• Cons: Higher price, a touch more tyre/road noise from the bigger rims, and pricier consumables.
