    I recently rode on the new Kia Carens and I have to say the space and the comfort within it was truly next level. I have friends and colleagues who swear by the InNova Crysta but Carens suprised me in the best manner possible as I had to ride in it for 9 straight hours. I still had energy left to direct a shoot after doing the ride which I have Not felt with any other car till Now

    I found the KIA Carens Most Lovely And Practical Car in its segment. Ground Clearance Is Well Good And Appropriate in its segment. Mileage And Pickup Is Excellent but little bit stiff on big potholes. Power is good and torque is better. And it's interior is classy in its segment.
