Kia has revealed it's next product for India which is the Clavis and it will be positioned above the Carens. It will be a more premium product placed above the Carens while having a different exterior as well as interior. As the images show the exterior looks different and is in line with the global Kia design language. There are new LED headlamps and different looking DRLs while the bumper design is also different.

The side profile is similar to the Carens but we expect different alloys and the rear too would be different. The interior would also be expected to be completely different with being like the Syros hence expect the new look steering wheel with a different logo along with digital instrument cluster plus a bigger touchscreen. The interior too would get more features including as confirmed by Kia, ADAS.

We also expect a 360 degree camera and more. While the powertrains have not been confirmed we expect the engine options to be the same as the current Carens. The Clavis would be positioned above the Carens would be a premium 3 row offering. This car will compete with the likes of the Mahindra XUV700 and the Hyundai Alcazar amongst others. The Clavis would be having a captain seat layout for the rear seat too and would have a premium over the Carens. Expect more details to be revealed soon leading upto the launch.
