Kia Carens Clavis 2026: If you’re looking for a luxurious and safe MPV for your family that fits both luxury and budget, Kia Motors has opened a magical box of joy for you. The company has launched an updated model of its popular Kia Carens Clavis in the Indian market, creating a stir in the mid-size MPV segment.
This time, Kia has not only introduced two new variants, the GT-Line and X-Line, but has also made luxury features like a sunroof and ADAS more affordable than ever before. With these new models, priced starting at ₹19.80 lakh, Kia has proven that premium features are no longer the exclusive preserve of the wealthy; middle-class families can also enjoy them.
Luxury Features
This time, Kia Motors has carefully considered the pulse of its customers, focusing on bringing premium features to the lower variants. You no longer have to wait for the most expensive models to get advanced safety technology like ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System). This feature is available in the new HTX (O) A variant for just ₹19.85 lakh, ensuring your safety during long highway journeys.
Furthermore, for mid-sized customers, the HTK+ trim now has an electric sunroof option, which was previously limited to the more expensive variants. Furthermore, the HTK+ (O) trim has been made even more high-tech, with a panoramic sunroof, a built-in dashcam, and bright LED headlights that illuminate the road like day in the dark.
GT-Line and X-Line
The biggest highlight of the 2026 model is its new GT-Line and X-Line variants, which come in a 6-seater configuration with comfortable captain seats in the middle row, providing airplane-like comfort during long journeys. The GT-Line trim also features newly designed alloy wheels and an updated front bumper, along with lime-colored brake calipers and metal pedals, giving it a rugged and sporty look.
If you prefer a dark and classy look, the X-Line is the car for you. Available in a new Dark Gun Metal finish and Aurora Black Pearl paint scheme, it looks like a true black beauty on the roads. Gloss black ORVMs and roof rails further enhance its muscular body.
Powerful Engine and Speed
Kia has maintained its strong position on the engine front, offering customers three powerful options to suit their needs. The 1.5-liter petrol engine is perfect for city driving. For speed enthusiasts, the 1.5-liter turbo petrol engine produces a whopping 160bhp, providing a sense of confidence during highway overtaking.
For those seeking long-range and fuel efficiency, there’s also the option of a 1.5-liter diesel engine, renowned for its robust torque. Kia has also offered a remarkable variety in transmissions, with customers choosing from a 6-speed manual to a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic, allowing every type of driver to find the perfect ride and create memorable journeys.
