South Korean automaker Kia Motors had started accepting bookings for its Carens SUV in India on January 14. Within just 24 hours since the orders opened, the car has received 7,738 bookings. The four-wheeler is available in five trim levels, namely Premium, Prestige, Prestige Plus, Luxury, and Luxury Plus. It is offered with a choice of three petrol as well as diesel engines.

Context
Why does this story matter?
  • For the Carens, Kia Motors has received the highest first-day bookings since the brand's arrival in the Indian market.
  • The car is likely to bear a starting price-figure of around Rs. 11 lakh and will undercut rivals like Hyundai ALCAZAR and Mahindra XUV700.
  • The SUV is expected to attract customers looking for a 6- or 7-seater SUV below Rs. 15 lakh.
Exteriors
The car has a radiator grille and roof rails

The Kia Carens flaunts a muscular hood, sleek headlights with DRLs, a narrow chrome bar, and a chrome-surrounded radiator grille. On the sides, the SUV is flanked by roof rails, indicator-mounted ORVMs, blacked-out B-pillars, and designer alloy wheels. A shark-fin antenna, a chrome trim on the bumper, a window wiper, and wrap-around LED taillights are available on the rear end of the car.

Information
It gets petrol and diesel engine options

Kia Carens has three engine choices: a 1.5-liter petrol engine that generates 113hp/144Nm, a 1.4-liter turbo-petrol mill that makes 138hp/242Nm, and a 1.5-liter diesel motor that puts out 113hp/250Nm. Transmission duties are handled by a 6-speed manual, 7-speed DCT, or a 6-speed automatic gearbox.

Interiors
The four-wheeler gets a sunroof and ventilated seats

Kia Carens has a 6/7-seater cabin with a sunroof, ambient lighting, an air purifier, an 8-speaker Bose audio system, ventilated front seats, retractable rear trays, and a flat-bottom steering wheel. The passengers' safety is ensured by six airbags, a rear-view camera, and ABS. It also houses a digital instrument cluster and a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment console with support for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

Information
Kia Carens: Pricing

The availability and pricing details of the Kia Carens in India will be disclosed at the time of launch next month. However, the SUV is tipped to carry a price-tag of around Rs. 11 lakh (ex-showroom).
