Trending Questions on Kia Carens Clavis EV - Answered by Autocar Experts
Hi, my daily commute is about 50 km, with one longer trip of 200–300 km each month. I’m looking to buy a new car (preferably an EV or diesel) with a budget of ₹18–25 lakh and want premium looks and features. Is it worth buying an EV now, or is choosing a diesel still a wise decision? Please advise.
Buying a diesel does have some level of uncertainty given the constant negativity around it, be it from official statements as to its certified life or restrictions on its usage on heavy air pollution days.
Thus, if you are open to an electric, we would advise you to go ahead with this. Furthermore, your daily running is low, and even your occasional long distances are 300kms which should be manageable with something like the Kia Carens Clavis EV.
The Clavis EV also has a nice and premium interior and is very well equipped in typical Kia fashion. The recently launched Mahindra XEV 9S is also a very good option, again with a premium interior and a good equipment list.
I want to sell my Kia Carens and buy the cheapest electric 7-seater within a budget of ₹26 lakh. I want good features, ample space, and a premium feel. Please suggest.
I want to buy a high-seated 7-seater car like the Scorpio N (diesel manual). My daily running is around 50 km, but my family wants to buy an EV for the 50 km per day drive. Since we have mixed opinions, what would be the better decision, an EV or a diesel?
I plan to sell my car and buy a new one. I was considering the Innova HyCross hybrid, but it is going over budget. I am not a frequent road-trip person, maybe one or two trips a year. My primary requirement is that the boot space should be close to the BR-V. Suggestions?
I plan to buy an EV before June 2026. My daily usage is around 100 km (about 2,500 km per month). I am confused between a 5-seater and a 7-seater — we usually travel as 4 family members, but parents or my mother-in-law join occasionally, so a 7-seater may be useful. My budget is ₹15–25 lakh. The Clavis EV seems suitable, and I’ve heard about upcoming EVs like the XUV700 EV, Sierra EV, and new Suzuki, Toyota and Honda EVs, along with current options like the Harrier EV, Nexon EV and MG Windsor/ZS EV. Please suggest the right option, clarify whether I should pick a 5-seater or 7-seater, the best time to buy (including tax relaxation benefits), and whether PY/BH registration is cheaper.
We'd strongly advise you to get a 7-seat EV for times when more family members join in. Of the current options, the Kia Carens Clavis EV is a great option. It is very smooth, offers good performance, and the flexible seating means you can maximise middle row space (when there's only 4 on board) or make more space for the last row (when there are 6 or 7 passengers on board).
Upcoming 7-seat options include the Mahindra XEV 9S, which will be launched on November 25. Our review of the model goes live later this month. Stay tuned to know if it fits your needs!
I want to buy an electric SUV in the ₹20-22 lakh range — which is the best option?
The Hyundai Creta Electric with the long-range battery is a very good option that has features, good range and comfort. If you want more space, the Kia Carens Clavis EV has the same powertrain as the Creta and features set too. Either one of these two will be good.
