Bookings for the Kia Clavis EV will open on July 22. It will be available in six colours, including Pewter Olive, Glacier White Pearl, and Ivory Silver Matte.


<p>The Kia Carens EV has been spotted testing in India for the first time, generating excitement ahead of its anticipated launch. This latest test mule, covered in heavy camouflage, signals&nbsp;notable changes, including an updated suspension system that promises improved handling and ride quality.&nbsp;In April this year, the automaker announced plans to launch a battery-powered version of the Carens. Although the company has not provided a specific launch date for the Carens EV, it is anticipated to arrive on our shores&nbsp;by late next year or early 2026. The upcoming&nbsp;model, part of the brand's expanding electric vehicle range, aims to meet the increasing demand for eco-friendly and efficient transportation options in the Indian market.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Kia Carens EV: Design and Other Details</h2>

<p>A test prototype of the fully-electric Carens has recently been spotted for the first time. Unlike the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/kia/ev6/">EV6</a> and <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/kia/ev9/">EV9</a>, which use a dedicated electric skateboard platform, the Carens EV will utilise the same foundation as the current petrol and diesel models. Several components such as the body shell, panels, and interior elements will be carried over from its internal combustion engine counterpart.</p>

<p><img alt="Kia Carens EV Spyshot" src="/uploads/2024/09/Kia-Carens-EV-spyshot.jpg" style="width: 1280px; height: 720px;" /></p>

<p>However, the electrified model&nbsp;will differ from the petrol and diesel versions in some aspects.&nbsp;The Carens EV will feature redesigned front and rear bumpers, and its alloy wheels will resemble those found on Kia’s electric vehicles. Additionally, the test mule&nbsp;shows a distinct rear suspension setup and lacks an exhaust pipe assembly, indicating its electric nature.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/kia/">Kia</a> has kept the electric vehicle's&nbsp;mechanical&nbsp;details under wraps, but it may share its powertrain with the upcoming <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/hyundai/creta-ev/">Hyundai Creta EV</a>,&nbsp;anticipated to launch in the first quarter of next year.&nbsp;With a single&nbsp;front-axle mounted&nbsp;electric motor and a 45kWh battery pack, the new Carens EV is expected to offer&nbsp;a 500km&nbsp;range on a single&nbsp;charge.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The Carens EV is anticipated to retail for between Rs 22 lakh and Rs 26 lakh. As a point of comparison, the petrol-powered Carens ranges in price from Rs 10.52 lakh to Rs 19.67 lakh. All prices shown are&nbsp;ex-showroom. Upon launch, the Kia model will rival the likes of the upcoming <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/mahindra/xuve8/">Mahindra XUV.e8</a> and <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/maruti-suzuki/evx/">Maruti Suzuki eVX</a>.</p>

<p>Meanwhile, Kia is also preparing for the launch of its next EV&nbsp;in India, the EV9,&nbsp;scheduled for&nbsp;October 3. It will come to our market via the&nbsp;completely built unit (CBU) route. The EV6&nbsp;is currently&nbsp;the only&nbsp;battery-powered vehicle in the company's India portfolio.</p>

Kia Carens EV Spotted Testing in India Ahead of Launch; Shows Revised Suspension Setup and More

The Kia Carens EV has been spotted testing in India for the first time ahead of its anticipated launch. Unlike the Kia EV6 and EV9, which use a dedicated electric skateboard platform, the Carens EV will utilise the same foundation as the current petrol and diesel models.

<p>At Investor Day 2024, Korean automaker Kia revealed its strategic plan for India, highlighting the need to meet the varied needs of car buyers&nbsp;in a&nbsp;diverse nation like&nbsp;India. To cater to&nbsp;these expectations, Kia&nbsp;President and CEO Ho-Sung Song announced the company's intention to introduce two&nbsp;new&nbsp;mass-market electric models within the next 18 months. Notably,&nbsp;the&nbsp;Carens EV is anticipated to be one of these upcoming offerings.&nbsp;Furthermore, Kia intends to expand the range of EVs in its portfolio&nbsp;by launching the <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/kia/ev9/">EV9</a>&nbsp;in India this year. With this, the brand&nbsp;will offer electric models&nbsp;in both entry-level and premium price ranges. Read on to learn more about Kia's plans when it comes to the Indian market.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Kia Carens EV: Key Details</h2>

<p>The electrified Carens will arrive on Indian shores by 2025.&nbsp;The&nbsp;EV, which might be exported from India to other growing&nbsp;markets, will be&nbsp;Kia's first locally manufactured car. There will be another EV joining it; no specifics have been disclosed, but considering the preference&nbsp;of the category&nbsp;and the design&nbsp;of the vehicle, it is likely to be an electric compact&nbsp;SUV.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In terms of price, the Carens EV&nbsp;is expected&nbsp;to&nbsp;cost between Rs&nbsp;22 lakh and Rs&nbsp;26 lakh. For reference, the price range of&nbsp;the petrol-powered Carens starts at Rs 10.52 lakh and goes up to Rs 19.67 lakh. All mentioned prices are ex-showroom. Upon launch, the EV will go up against upcoming models like the <a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/bharat-mobility-expo-maruti-suzuki-evx-showcased-ahead-of-upcoming-india-launch-116029/">Maruti Suzuki eVX</a> and the <a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/top-upcoming-electric-cars-of-2024-kia-ev9-mahindra-xuve8-tata-punch-ev-and-more-115698/">Mahindra XUV.e8</a>.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Kia Future Plans</h2>

<p>Kia aims to maintain its growth in key regions with a broad EV lineup, improved product competitiveness, and Purpose-Built Vehicles (PBVs) to generate demand. According to the brand, it further hopes to set itself apart in new markets&nbsp;by providing excellent client experiences and expanding its production base to accommodate rising demand. With this year's EV3 introduction, the company&nbsp;plans to dramatically increase the number of electric vehicles in its lineup.&nbsp;After that, it&nbsp;will roll out&nbsp;EV2, EV4, and EV5, taking&nbsp;the overall number&nbsp;of mass-market cars to six in all significant markets. By 2027, Kia will boast 15 all-electric cars globally.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/kia/">Kia</a> is planning to&nbsp;sell 16 lakh electric vehicles by 2030. To meet this target, the company will need to sell 13 lakh more vehicles than it will in 2024. It is anticipated that by 2030, the share of EV sales in major regions will increase from 13 per cent&nbsp;this year&nbsp;to 52 per cent, with the North American and Korean markets potentially accounting for 40 per cent&nbsp;of sales and Europe for up to 79 per cent. However, no precise information was given regarding the volumes or penetration of our&nbsp;market.</p>
