Kia Carnival discounts in May 2026

Up to Rs 2.7 lakh

The offers on the Carnival go up to Rs 2.7 lakh – the highest in Kia’s line-up this month. These include exchange support of Rs 2 lakh, along with scrappage and corporate benefits.

The upmarket MPV continues to stand out for its spacious and flexible cabin, particularly the second-row comfort. However, it is priced at a premium. While the Carnival does not have a direct rival, the MG M9, at Rs 59.42 lakh, sits in a similar price bracket.

Kia Carens Clavis discounts in May 2026

Up to Rs 1.55 lakh

Kia is extending significant benefits on the Carens Clavis ICE line-up, particularly the 1.5-litre turbo-petrol version; savings could go as high as Rs 1.55 lakh. The brand is also offering a free 5-year extended warranty (3 years standard + 2 years extended/unlimited kilometres) on the turbo-petrol variants. Benefits on the diesel and naturally aspirated petrol variants are lower, a maximum of Rs 85,000.

The Clavis stands out for its spacious, practical cabin and good comfort across all three rows. However, the diesel automatic lacks punch, and engine noise is noticeable inside the cabin.

The Clavis rivals MPVs such as the Maruti Suzuki XL6 and Toyota Rumion, while its price also overlaps with larger three-row SUVs such as the Hyundai Alcazar and Tata Safari. Prices range from Rs 11.21 lakh to Rs 21.57 lakh.

Kia Carens Clavis EV discounts in May 2026

Up to Rs 1.3 lakh

The Carens Clavis EV’s ER and SR variants are available with exchange bonuses, loyalty benefits, scrappage support and corporate offers that add up to a maximum of Rs 1.3 lakh.

The Clavis EV offers a practical, well-finished cabin along with strong performance even under load. However, it is not ideally suited for long-distance travel and is significantly more expensive than the ICE-powered Clavis. Priced between Rs 17.99 lakh and Rs 24.99 lakh, it rivals models such as the BYD eMax 7 and Vinfast VF MPV 7.

Kia Seltos discounts in May 2026

Up to Rs 95,000

Older MY25 Seltos inventory receives the highest benefits, with total offers of up to Rs 95,000. Newer MY26 variants receive lower benefits of up to Rs 40,000. The Seltos continues to offer a comfort-oriented ride without sacrificing handling balance, while the turbo-petrol engine remains a strong point. However, some expected features are still missing in this segment, and the diesel engine lacks punch.

The Seltos rivals the Hyundai Creta, Tata Sierra, Maruti Grand Vitara, Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder, Volkswagen Taigun, Skoda Kushaq, Renault Duster and MG Astor. Prices range from Rs 10.99 lakh to Rs 19.99 lakh.

Kia Syros discounts in May 2026

Up to Rs 85,000

MY25 Syros inventory is available with benefits of up to Rs 85,000, while newer MY26 units receive lower offers of up to Rs 50,000. Kia has also clarified that newly introduced variants launched in April 2026 do not receive any discounts.

The Syros stands out for its stylish cabin and spacious rear seats, although NVH levels in both petrol and diesel variants remain high.  The Kia Syros rivals include the Tata Nexon, Mahindra XUV 3XO, Maruti Suzuki Brezza, Skoda Kylaq and Hyundai Venue. It is priced from Rs 8.39 lakh to Rs 15.80 lakh.

Kia Sonet discounts in May 2026

Up to Rs 35,000

The Sonet receives relatively limited benefits compared to the rest of the line-up. MY26 stock gets offers of up to Rs 35,000, while MY25 units receive slightly lower benefits of up to Rs 30,000.

The compact SUV remains feature-loaded and good to drive, although rear-seat space is limited and higher variants are expensive. The Sonet rivals the Maruti Suzuki Brezza, Tata Nexon, Skoda Kylaq, Hyundai Venue and Mahindra XUV 3XO. The Sonet is priced between Rs 7.30 lakh and Rs 14 lakh.

Kia Carens discounts in May 2026

Up to Rs 40,000

The Carens gets benefits of up to Rs 40,000 on MY26 stock, while older MY25 units receive slightly lower offers of up to Rs 35,000.

The Carens offers a spacious and premium cabin along with a strong feature list. However, diesel performance under full load is not particularly strong, and the petrol engines are not very fuel efficient. The MPV rivals the Toyota Rumion and Maruti Suzuki Ertiga, and is priced between Rs 10.99 lakh and Rs 12.77 lakh.
