Most Helpful Review

Very good in segment

Compared to the competitor, this car is excellent in looks, features, mileage and comforts. Also, don't think about alternatives, just go for Kia Carens Clavis. Kia has the best MUV, and good service also.

Overpriced car

Little overpriced. They can introduce a variant between HTK plus & HTX without ADAS, without panoramic sunroof, without wireless charging, without Beige & Navy leatherette seat. Because the price difference between HTK plus & HTX is 2.5 lakhs. So by deleting the above-mentioned features, the cost can be reduced.
