“We are excited to introduce the new trims of the Carens,” stated Myung-sik Sohn, Chief Sales and Business Officer, Kia India, in reference to the updated Carens portfolio. Over 1.5 lakh families have chosen the Carens since its launch in 2022 as their personal mobility option because it is luxurious, dependable, and comfortable. We chose to update Carens because we recognized a lot of potential for a six-seating option and realized that more and more families are looking for lavish and comfortable trips, which is changing mobility preferences.
