Kia’s upcoming MPV, the Carens, will go on sale with three engine options, along with a choice between six or seven seats

Kia India is all set to launch its fourth product for the Indian market – Carens – on 14 January 2022. The South Korean manufacturer will commence bookings for it on the same day. Kia Carens MPV was unveiled on 16 December 2021, and it is officially referred to as a ‘Recreational Vehicle’ by the brand.

The Carens is a midsize MPV with a sharp and handsome design. At the front, it gets a pair of vertically split LED headlamps and a sporty front bumper. The side profile of this upcoming Kia car has an SUV-ish appeal, thanks to the flat bonnet, thick plastic cladding near the bottom, and beautiful alloy wheels. The Carens also sports a pair of roof rails and body-coloured ORVMs (with integrated turn indicators).

At the rear, the MPV gets a pair of wraparound taillights, joined together by an LED strip. The rear bumper also looks quite sporty, and the Carens gets a healthy dose of chrome embellishments on the bumpers (front and rear), door handles, and window sills. The interior of the vehicle has a unique design, which looks and feel quite premium.
