Kia Carens [2023-2024] User Reviews

1. Buying experience: Could have been better. No clue when the vehicle will arrive and I waited for more than a month for getting the color I selected but it did not worked out and finally I moved to another vendor to get the vehicle. So, I would say no clear communication but it all depends on outlet to outlet. Cannot blame Kia. 2. Driving experience: Please note, this is not SUV , this is a complete family car where you get enough space, all corner smartly utilized, made for long and comfortable drive, enough power to drive on hills. suspension is good, you wont feel small humps. multiple charging point and bottle holders for all the passenger is plus. 3. Interior look is beautiful. really luxury. performance is great too. I dont feel any issue with IMT. easy to adjust for people who drove manual. no issues on hills or in narrow road or in pickup. Cons: 1. Dark color difficult to maintain and body is scratch prone. I did not found this in Hyundai. So Ceramic coating or PPF is must for dark else you can see lots of scratches even you use soft cloth or only water wash. 2. no sunroof: This is costly car but they have not provided Sunroof. it comes only with top end and that is also kind of useless because of very small in size. 3. Headlight: Is ok ok. you will feel the low power headlight when you are on highways mostly. Need a upgrade here in prestige plus or lower model. 4. No speaker at rare seat: front speaker is too good even if this is not of BOSE. but middle one is really average and worst for people sitting at last row. until you increase the volume too loud, rare seat people do not enjoy and that is pain for front end people because of loud music. when you reduce sound in front seat, sound quality gradually goes down. 5. Even after paying this much of amount, you wont get floor mat, mud flap or coated windshield/window. It is too bright and for all these, you need to pay for it. quite not appreciating thing. Pros: 1. Luxury feel inside. 2. smooth driving. 3. Good Mileage for 7 seater. 4. comfortable seating. 5. Royal look. 6. IMT is really good for new style of driving and no lack of power. 7. Many storage option available. 8. Full bending of Rare and middle seat allow you to do many seating settings. 9. Ground clearance is good. 10. not at all bumpy for middle and rare seats unlike many other 7 seatercars so this is plus point.
