New Kia Carens To Launch On May 8; Here What To Expect

The 2025 new Kia Carens facelift is set to make its official debut on May 8, 2025. It will be sold alongside the existing model. It is expected to use a sufix after the โ€œCARENSโ€ word. The brand will also introduce its electric version at a later stage.

2025 Kia Carens Facelift โ€“ What To Expect?

Based on the spy shots, the Kia Carens will undergo a host of visual changes all around. The updated Carens is expected to feature a redesigned front facia, with new grille, revised lighting setup and redesigned bumper. While the silhouette of the MPV will remain largely unchanged, it will get new alloy wheels. Towards the rear, it will get new connected tail lamps and a redesigned bumper.

While the interior of the car is yet to be seen, it is expected to boast new colour scheme and upholstery, along with minor design changes to the dashboard.

Creature comforts will also be enhanced with new amenities like multi-zone climate control, powered front seats, upgraded sound insulation, connected displays for infotainment and instrument cluster, rear ventilated seats for 6-seater version, optional rear entertainment screens, a 360-degree camera, panoramic sunroof and level-2 ADAS suite.

We do not expect any changes underneath the hood. The updated MPV might continue with the existing engine options, comprising 1.5-litre N.A. petrol, 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol and 1.5-litre diesel. Letโ€™s take a look at their specifications: โ€“

Expect the new Kia Carens to command a significant premium over its existing model, which is currently priced from Rs 10.60 lakh-19.70 lakh (ex-showroom). Once launched, it will continue to serve as a premium alternative to the Maruti Ertiga, XL6 and Toyota Rumion.
