Among the three engine options on offer, the 1.4L turbocharged engine draws the attention of most driving enthusiasts. Moreover, the availability of paddle shifters, DCT automatic, and sports mode bring immense driving thrill. It\u2019s worth noting, Mahindra Marazzo comes with a diesel engine, and Ertiga is offered with a 1.5L naturally aspirated petrol engine. These cars compete against the base and mid-variants of the Carens.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"longest-wheelbase-in-the-segment\">Longest Wheelbase in the Segment<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>The wheelbase is the length of the cabin of the car and this is a major determinant of space available for passengers. The Kia Carens has the longest wheelbase in the segment of 2,780 mm, which is 20 mm more than that of theHyundai Alcazar and the Mahindra Marazzo, and 30 mm longer than that of the Toyota Innova Crysta. The longest wheelbase of Carens translates into great comfort in second and third rows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192226\/Kia-Carens-space-1160x653.jpg\" alt=\"Kia Carens Cabin\" class=\"wp-image-499965\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192226\/Kia-Carens-space-1160x653.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192226\/Kia-Carens-space-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192226\/Kia-Carens-space-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192226\/Kia-Carens-space.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"safety-features-as-standard-fitment\">Safety features as standard fitment<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Making safety a priority the Kia Carens has generously loaded the Kia Carens with safety features across the variants. The standard safety features of Kia Carens are 6 airbags, ABS, ESC, hill-start assist, disc brakes at all four wheels, TPMS, and rear parking sensors.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"large-dual-digital-display\">Large dual digital display<\/h2>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192256\/Kia-Carens-display-1160x653.jpg\" alt=\"Kia Carens display\" class=\"wp-image-499966\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192256\/Kia-Carens-display-1160x653.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192256\/Kia-Carens-display-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192256\/Kia-Carens-display-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192256\/Kia-Carens-display.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As compared to its rivals, the Kia Carens features the largest (10.25-inch) touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and Kia\u2019s UVO connected car features. In addition to this, it features a 12.5-inch LCD digital instrument cluster with a 4.2-inch colour TFT MID screen. It&#8217;s worth noting, the Carens\u2019 digital instrument cluster is larger than the Alcazar\u2019s 10.25-inch infotainment display.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"64colour-ambient-lighting\">64-colour Ambient Lighting<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>One of the strongest attractions of the Kia Carens is its 64-colour ambient lighting to suit the specific moods of passengers. While ambient lighting itself is not much of a differentiator in more expensive segments, in this price bracket, Kia Carens and Hyundai Alcazar are the only two options.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ventilated-front-seats\">Ventilated Front Seats<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Considering the Indian climate, the soothing comfort of ventilated seats is a considerable seller. While no other car in this price point offers ventilated seats, the Kia Carens sports ventilated driver and front passenger seats with three levels of cooling.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"practical-interiors\">Practical Interiors<\/h2>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192404\/Kia-carens-tray-1160x653.jpg\" alt=\"Kia Carens tray\" class=\"wp-image-499967\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192404\/Kia-carens-tray-1160x653.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192404\/Kia-carens-tray-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192404\/Kia-carens-tray-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220317192404\/Kia-carens-tray.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In a departure from feel-good features like a panoramic sunroof, the Kia Carens comes with many utilitarian advantages which significantly elevate the cabin\u2019s convenience and ride comfort. These features include the pop-up cup holder, under-seat storage tray, cooled cup holder (front and rear), and an electric seat tumble on the left side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With such stand out credentials, the glorious beginning of Kia Carens\u2019s journey is showcasing a permanent favour to Indian consumers. Hopefully, the raised standards will better the premium and safety levels of upcoming products in Kia Carens\u2019s segment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The hot-selling sales figures of Kia Carens are worrying most rival automakers.
