Our take on this /// Verdict
The Kia Carens Clavis HTE Diesel is a significant upgrade over its predecessor, offering a blend of modern features, enhanced comfort, and practicality. The vehicle retains the spacious and comfortable interior that the Carens is known for, while adding a fresh design element with 3-pod LED headlights, LED DRLs, and 17-inch alloy wheels. The diesel engine, producing 116PS and 250Nm of torque, is smooth and refined, making it suitable for both city drives and highway cruising. However, the lack of a CVT automatic option in the petrol variants might be a drawback for some. Overall, the Clavis makes for a sensible package with a good dose of desirability, especially with its improved insulation and minimal vibrations, making it a solid choice for those seeking a premium yet practical vehicle.
Price
The Kia Carens Clavis HTE Diesel is expected to be priced around Rs. 14.55 lakh in New Delhi. On-road prices would likely be higher, considering additional costs such as registration, insurance, and other local taxes, which could push the price to around Rs. 17-18 lakh. This pricing places the Clavis in a competitive segment, but the added features and premium feel justify the slight increase over the standard Carens. Its important to note that Kia has not yet revealed the final pricing, but an increase of Rs 50,000 to Rs 1.2 lakh over the standard Carens is anticipated, depending on the variant.
