1. Booked 7 DCT 1.5T Petrol Prestige Plus (O) recently (11-April 20024) and overall experience is great. Sales guys are pretty knowledgeable and able to satisfy all the queries. 2. Driven this DCT version and its peppy, quick, stable, silent cabin (no engine noise or vibrations etc.), no lagging of power when need to pick it up after stand still at stop signals or transitioning from slow to medium to high speed. Clearly felt turbo engine prowess. By the way, we are 4 guys (adults) inside car during driving. 3. This is surely not a competition to MPV segment like Ertiga, XL6, etc., it has its own league way above the rest in competition. Carens is RV (Recreational Vehicle). Cabin is awesome and futuristic, ergonomically placed all features. Seating positioning particularly third row seat and its comfort and over all ride quality is awesome. Road Presence is fantastic, surely a head turner. Vehicle appears small from outside, but cabin space generated inside is felt really big and comfortable for a 7 seater vehicle. Pros: Overall Value for Money Cons: 360 Deg Parking Camera, Rear Camera on OVRM (Co-Driver side) for changing lanes, Hybrid Engine and CNG option (may be) for Taxi Segment mindset.

I searched so many 7 seater like ertiga, xl6. Finally I reached to kia carens, it's a amazing car look wise and performance. Interior is very good. Loaded with so many future... I like most in this car in mileage...

I have been using Kia Carens Diesel top of the line model. Average in the city depends but still I get 10-12 but when I travel frequently to Pune , I get 22 - 27. But recently after 15 months of purchasing and driven around 8900 kms I got an alert of Diesel fuel filter regeneration. I drove at a speed of 65 km/h for around 20 mins and the alert went off & next day car was picked up by the dealer for necessary action.
