Kia Carens Clavis Htx (o) A Smartstream G1.5 Tgdi 6 Seater 7 Speed Petrol At (dct) Pros and Cons
What we like
The factory-fitted sunroof makes the CLAVIS's sporty, dark interior feel incredibly airy and premium.
The stunning factory alloy wheels give the CLAVIS's side profile an incredibly sharp, aggressive road presence.
A crisp, high-definition display perfectly integrates your smartphone, acting as a brilliant digital command center.
Level-2 driver assists act as a brilliant digital co-pilot, bringing tremendous peace of mind on long road trips.
Surround-view monitors completely eliminate dangerous blind spots when maneuvering the CLAVIS in tight city lanes.
The dual-clutch transmission turns the CLAVIS into a highly engaging, aggressive performer on open roads.
What to consider
The dual-clutch transmission (DCT) is prone to frustrating overheating warnings in heavy, bumper-to-bumper uphill traffic.
The excessive use of glossy piano black interior trims acts as a massive magnet for dust, fingerprints, and nasty micro-scratches.
The notoriously stiff suspension tuning means rear passengers will noticeably bounce around on poorly maintained rural roads.
The sloping, aggressive roofline cuts noticeably into rear-seat headroom, making it feel claustrophobic for taller passengers.
Insanely long waiting periods for top-spec CLAVIS variants often push frustrated buyers toward competitors.
The polarizing, hyper-aggressive design language means the CLAVIS certainly isn't for everyone.
