Kia's worth seemed to be true when the Carens was announced as the winner of the 2023 Indian Car of the Year (ICOTY). The vehicle was judged on the basis of design, comfort, space and performance. The MPV was launched in the country in February 2022 having a starting price of Rs 10.19 lakh (ex-showroom). As for its top spec model, it costs Rs 18.44 lakh (ex-showroom). Currently, Kia Carens is available in five trims namely Premium, Prestige, Prestige Plus, Luxury, and Luxury Plus. Depending upon your requirement, there are multiple seating and powertrain options available to choose from. The four-wheeler comes with a seven-seater option for the Premium to Luxury trims while the Luxury Plus trim is offered with a choice of either a 6 or 7-seater option.

When it comes to talking about Kia car design, they are crafted with a lot of research and skill. No wonder why, the moment you look at their exterior design or interior layout the finesse and style automatically complements the overall appeal of the product. This is demonstrated by key elements like the traditional Tiger Nose Grill, LED DRL’s, projector headlamps, fabric seats / leather upholstery, Bose sound system, ventilated seats, sunroof, three-zone climate control, 5 to 7 seat configurations depending upon the model selected among many others. Plus the buyer has the option to choose from a subcompact SUV - Kia Sonet to Compact SUV - the Seltos, among MPVs there is the Carens at the lower end of the spectrum with the Carnival providing top-end-luxury. In the EV category, Kia Motors offers the EV6 to its customers that exhibits a futuristic design, performance and practicality.

India is a very price sensitive market and therefore fuel efficiency plays an important role in the purchase making decision. Keeping this aspect in mind, South Korean automaker Kia always prioritizes fuel economy when making its car models. So let us start with their smallest offering, the Sonet provides a fuel efficiency figure of 18.2 kmpl to 24.1 kmpl. The Seltos comes with a range of 16.1 kmpl to 21 kmpl followed by the Carens that returns 15.7 kmpl to 21.3 kmpl. As for the Kia Carnival it is said to give 14.1 kmpl of mileage. Note all figures mentioned here are ARAI Certified.

On the whole as you can see, with so much on offer buying a New Kia car makes all the more sense depending upon your requirement and budget. We hope that we were able to educate you about why Kia Cars are a great value for your money.
