The Kia Carens Clavis specifications matter because three engines and several gearboxes fill the range. The spec sheet changes clearly as you move up it. Three engines mean there is a version for almost every buyer.
The 1.5 litre petrol makes 113 bhp and 144 Nm with a manual. The 1.5 litre turbo petrol makes 158 bhp and 253 Nm, with a manual, iMT or DCT. That 253 Nm gives strong mid range pull for overtaking. The 1.5 litre diesel makes 114 bhp and 250 Nm, as a manual or automatic.
On fuel, the diesel manual leads at 19.54 kmpl, with the diesel automatic at 17.50 kmpl. The turbo reads 16.66 kmpl on the DCT and 15.95 kmpl with the manual and iMT. The plain petrol sits at 15.34 kmpl. Real figures fall in traffic and with a full load. To place these, compare the Carens Clavis mileage by engine.
The body measures 4550 mm long on a 2780 mm wheelbase, which frees up three usable rows. The boot holds 216 litres with every seat in place and grows as you fold them. Ground clearance of 195 mm helps on rough roads, and the tank holds 45 litres. You can check the Carens Clavis price near you.
Taken together, the numbers show an MPV that behaves like a tall estate car. Strong torque, three rows and a car like footprint make it easy to own. It is easy to place on the road despite its length. It is a genuinely usable family car with a premium edge.
