Is Kia's boxy EV5 on the money or not?
03 January 2025 11:54
As a parent, I'm all for it. And that shape allows for easier loading of kids and cargo, and more headroom. I don't care that it's not the sleekest thing on the road.
Will the reported focus on rear seat space for the Kia Clavis turn out to be a game changer for Uber/Ola drivers?
03 January 2025 11:49
I don't know if that's going to make a whole lot of difference. Uber/Ola drivers most of the time go for the cheapest option that qualifies. Will the Clavis be competitive priced?
Is the Kia Clavis's reported panoramic sunroof a feature that will actually be used or just a gimmick for the Indian market?
03 January 2025 11:49
The real question is, how much is it gonna add to the cost? Of course, if it bumps up the price too much, it may not be worth it for many buyers.
Is the Kia Clavis really just a Sonet, but taller, or does it introduce something new?
03 January 2025 11:49
It’s far from being just a taller Sonet. With an emphasis on rear seat space and comfort, the Clavis seems to be aimed at a different crowd. It’s a smart move in the Indian market where backseat passengers are often prioritised.
Will Kia Clavis's ADAS features actually be useful on Indian roads?
03 January 2025 11:49
It’s good to see ADAS in more affordable cars like the Clavis. It will not be perfect, but it will help normalize the technology and over time lead to improvements.
Can Kia Clavis match Tata Punch’s safety reputation?
03 January 2025 11:49
If Kia comes close to matching the safety and can do better tech, they have a winner. The Punch is great, but it’s a pretty basic punch in some areas.
Could the Kia Ceed GT make for a worthy successor to the Golf GTI or Focus ST?
03 January 2025 11:45
In fact, I actually prefer my Ceed GT to my friend's Focus ST. It is quick enough and much more comfortable to use on a daily basis.
How does the Kia Ceed’s infotainment system compare?
03 January 2025 11:45
In fact, I find Kia's system more preferable than some of the more expensive brands. It’s intuitive and doesn’t try to be overly clever.
Is the Kia Ceed’s resale value worse than more established brands?
03 January 2025 11:45
It seems the higher spec models hold their value better. My friend's base model was harder to sell than my GT Line.
Is Kia Ceed really as good as people say it is?
03 January 2025 11:45
I think people get reliability confused with the long warranty. It’s not a guarantee of quality, it’s more of a marketing tool.
Is the Kia Ceed's interior cheap compared with its rivals?
03 January 2025 11:45
The interior of my Ceed was a pleasant surprise. It is not luxury, but whatever it is, it feels solid and well put together.
Do the Kia Carnival’s VIP lounge seats actually feel comfortable for longer trips?
03 January 2025 11:38
For a couple of hours, it was comfortable enough — but since they weren’t capable of fully reclining or stretching out, really long trips were beginning to take a toll on me.
How does the Kia Carnival perform compared to the usual minivans and SUVs?
03 January 2025 11:38
The steering is nice and weighted, but when you're driving a car this big you can't avoid the physics. It's comfortable, not sporty.
Could the Kia Carnival’s fuel efficiency be a deal breaker for potential buyers?
03 January 2025 11:38
It's a big issue for me. I am waiting for a hybrid version before buying, I love everything else about the Carnival.
Is the Kia Carnival worth more than a traditional minivan?
03 January 2025 11:38
It depends on what you value. If you don't want a minivan that looks like one, the Carnival is great. If you just need practicality, don’t go for the more expensive ones.
Does anyone really get fooled by the Kia Carnival’s SUV inspired design?
03 January 2025 11:38
It’s not about fooling anybody — it’s about making minivans cool again. What the Carnival does is that it does that without pretending to be something it’s not.
Is the lower crash test rating of the Kia Carens X Line compensated by its safety features?
03 January 2025 11:34
I think the people are overreacting regarding the crash test results. More safety features than most cars on the road, the X Line has. The ones that are more likely to keep you safe in real driving are those active safety systems.
Is the Kia Carens X Line’s infotainment system actually useful or just a gimmick?
03 January 2025 11:34
It's a mixed bag. The 360-degree camera is super useful, but some features are just unnecessary. If they spent a bit more time on making it user friendly than cramming in every possible feature, I would be happy.
Does the sporty styling of the Kia Carens X Line make sense for an MPV?
03 January 2025 11:34
The effort put into the styling is fine, but that's effort that should've been put into improving the driving dynamics instead. Make it really sporty, not just sporty looking.
Should you pay the premium for the Kia Carens X Line over lower trims?
03 January 2025 11:34
I honestly don’t think it’s worth it. Most of the important features are already included on the lower Luxury Plus trim, and the X Line additions are almost entirely cosmetic. But that extra cash could just as well have been put towards accessories or saved for further maintenance.
