The upcoming Kia Carens three-row model was recently spotted testing in India. Clad in camouflage, the three-row MPV was caught on camera with two Hyundai Alcazar SUVs that were probably used for benchmarking. The Kia Carens MPV is set to make its global debut in India on December 16, 2021. Not many details are visible in the video, however, we do get to see the split headlamp setup and 5-spoke alloy wheels. The company is calling the new Carence a new class of recreational vehicle or RV, built on the design philosophy – ‘Opposites United’.

Kia Carense will be the fourth product to be launched by Kia in India

The Carens MPV will sport an aggressive front end that will get a split lighting setup, signature LED DRLs, sleek LED headlamps and a muscular bumper with large air intakes. It will also get alloy wheels, bold character lines and roof rails, sharp-looking wraparound LED taillamps, a sculpted tailgate and an aggressive rear bumper. Inside the cabin will see a minimalist design for the dashboard, horizontal air-con vents, multi-functional steering wheel, 10.25-inch Audio Video Navigation Telematics (AVNT) and more.

The upcoming Kia Carens MPV is also expected to include engine options from the Seltos which could include 1.5-litre petrol and 1.5-litre diesel. Transmission options will also be the same. It remains to be seen whether Kia offers the 2.0-litre petrol seen on the Alcazar. When launched, the Kia Carens will rival the likes of Toyota Innova Crysta, MG Hector Plus, and Hyundai Alcazar among others. It is expected to be launched in the price range of ₹16-22 Lakh space (ex-showroom).
