Moreover, the MPV is equipped with 16-inch dual-tone crystal-cut alloy wheels featuring a glossy black outline, contributing to its bold and stylish road presence.
Premium interior upgrades for a comfortable ride
Inside, the Carens X-Line features a dual-tone Splendid Sage Green and Black color scheme with orange stitching, creating an upscale ambiance.

These interior upgrades aim to deliver a luxurious experience for both drivers and passengers.
What about its performance?
Under the hood, the Kia Carens MPV's X-Line version draws power from a 1.5-liter, turbo-petrol engine that makes 158hp of power and a 1.5-liter diesel mill that puts out 114hp. Transmission duties on the former are taken care of by a 7-speed DCT gearbox, while the diesel motor is paired with a 6-speed automatic unit.
