The Kia Carens is a member of the MPV family. It's a large vehicle with seating for seven and ample storage space. The interior is well-suited for family use, with comfortable seating. It can also be used for various trips within cities and for commuting.
The Kia Carens is approximately 4,525 mm long and 1,805 mm wide, with a wheelbase of 2,750 mm and a total height including loading beams of 1,610 mm. The vehicle weighs 1,429 kg with a 492-liter trunk.
Thanks to its longer wheelbase and the latest interior design technologies, the Carens offers a spacious cabin with room for up to seven passengers, in addition to the trunk. The second-row seats can also slide forward 240 mm, providing easy access to the third-row seats.
For young people and those seeking driving pleasure, the Kia Carens doesn't offer this option, as it's primarily a family car, so this isn't a drawback.
The car offers good cabin insulation at both slow and high speeds, and the side glass areas are large, making it suitable for families.
It can be said that the car solved the problem of the driver's seat being too high in the previous generation, offering a better height in the third generation. This provides greater driver comfort and increased space in the second row, especially with the possibility of a dining table in the back of the front seats. The rest of the car's seats are comfortable and suitable for long trips.
The car's main drawback is its extremely narrow third row, which is only suitable for children in terms of space. Accessing and exiting the seats in this row is also extremely difficult.
Storage space in the car is considered poor when the third row is in place. However, when the third row is folded, the car provides ample storage space, especially since the loading sill is low, making loading easier, and there is a storage area under the floor. The luggage compartment capacity reaches 492 liters. There are also numerous storage spaces inside the car.
When all seven seats are occupied, the minimum cargo capacity is 103 liters. When the front and second row seats are in use, the cargo capacity increases to 492 liters. Up to 1,667 liters can be carried when the second and third rows are folded. A total of 13 storage spaces are also provided inside the cabin.
The car offers three steering wheel modes (standard, comfort, and sport), as well as steering wheel controls for the CD radio, cruise control, and Bluetooth.
