    Kia Carnes does not share its ground with MPVs in its segment. If we exclude the price difference Carens competes against the likes of Maruti Suzuki Ertiga and Toyota Innova. But when keeping the price into perspective the Carens lies between its competition. Furthermore, there does exist an MPV that might fit in Kia Carens’ price bracket, Mahindra Marazzo. But it failed to attract customers so this should not be a problem.

    Coming to the price, Kia will unveil the cost of this new MPV soon. Still, if we had to guess, Carens might be priced somewhere around Rs. 12 – Rs. 18 lakh (ex-showroom) price range
