Features and Technology

The Carens EV in its top-spec guise gets a pretty comprehensive feature list, quite similar to what is offered on the ICE model. This list includes dual-zone climate control, powered front seats with ventilation and dual digital screens. The second row in the six-seat guise has rear AC vents, seatback tray tables and USB-C charging ports. The third row collapses for additional storage space. Read more

Exterior and Interior styling

The exterior picks up the same design highlights as its ICE sibling. However, the tell-tale signs that set it apart from the ICE version include a blanked-off grille, front fender-mounted charging port, aero design for the alloy wheels, revised LED headlamps and DRLs, and redesigned tail lamps with a connecting light bar. Inside Kia has repositioned the gear lever to free up the space between the front seats. This is the same design offered on the EV9 MPV. Kia is offering the Carens Clavis EV in both six-seat and seven-seat guises. Read more

Safety

The biggest draw for the Carens EV is Level 2 ADAS and V2L. The safety suite includes automatic braking, adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, blind spot monitor with visuals on the speedometer, and rear cross-traffic alert and avoidance. All variants get six airbags as standard Read more
