ALL ABOARD The powerful yet refined Kia Carens is designed for adventurous and active lives. With a pioneering 7 year/100,000 mile warranty, the Carens is a family vehicle well equipped with all the thoughtful touches and safety features you’d expect. The dynamic 'Kia face' is made up of a distinctive tiger-nose grille, sculpted front bumper and reshaped bonnet. These stylish changes are complemented by body coloured bumpers and door handles. The combination of comfort and versatility puts the Carens in a class of its own. Designed with enough space to seat adults, children and friends plus everybody’s luggage, but compact enough for city traffic and parking spaces. The Carens is available as a 5- or 7-seater and the practical 60:40 flat-folding 2nd row seats mean you can arrange the ideal configuration for every trip, offering greater flexibility to suit your needs and an impressive 2,106 litres of load

capacity. Stylish privacy glass is a standard feature on the Carens '3' model. As well as providing security it adds elegance to the exterior appearance of the model. Inside, the Carens is roomy and resourceful. With a contemporary centre fascia that brings all controls within reach and a commanding driving position for a clear, all-round view, every trip is a pleasure. The raised gearshift is conveniently located in the middle console, where it’s close to hand. For added comfort there is an air conditioning system, electrically adjustable door mirrors, all-round electric windows with driver's auto down function and an RDS radio/ CD audio with MP3 disc compatibility.

Leather interior currently unavailable in the UK

STRETCH OUT Sporting a long wheelbase and high roofline, the interior of the Carens offers lots of space, translating into more head room, shoulder room and leg room than traditionally seen in the mid-sized MPV market. The Carens allows you to arrange the five or seven seats to suit your needs, whether it's picking up a car full of children or a trip to the shopping centre. The easily adaptable seating configurations make life easy.

With class-leading levels of versatility, the Carens features creative storage compartments that produce lots of additional space. Storage boxes and pockets throughout the cabin ensure that everything is neatly tucked away and within reach, no matter where you sit.

COMPLETE PROTECTION The advanced safety features throughout the Carens ensure driver and passenger protection at all times. Intensive research and development work has gone into ensuring that high levels of protection are built into the body shell, structure and chassis.

The impressive standard safety and security feature list includes six airbags (twin front, front seat side and curtain), front seatbelt pretensioners and front active head rests to protect front passengers against whiplash injuries.

Other safety and security features include ISOFIX child seat anchor points and rear door safety locks to protect younger occupants, a front passenger airbag cutoff switch and allround 3-point seatbelts.

The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) ensure braking energy is evenly distributed between the four wheels to keep you in control whatever the conditions whilst maximising stopping power and shortening braking distances.

All Carens models are fitted with Electronic Stability Control (ESC) as standard. This important safety technology automatically applies the brakes to individual wheels as required to help bring the car back under control in adverse conditions or to correct over or under steer.

POWERFUL PERFORMANCE WITH PRECISION Packed with power, yet quiet and fuel efficient – that is what drives the art and science of Kia’s engine technology. The Carens range has a choice of a 1.6 litre petrol or diesel 5 seat version and diesel 7 seat versions. All engines comply with the latest Euro 5 emission standards so are highly efficient and produce lower emissions, saving you money as well as lowering the environmental impact. For added fuel economy, an eco-shift indicator comes as standard (on petrol models only), alerting you to the optimal time to change gear.

The diesel engine is fitted with a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) to reduce harmful exhaust gases without compromising engine performance. The Carens is available with smooth 5-speed (petrol) or 6-speed manual transmissions (diesel) for a refined and responsive drive.
