Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Kia Carens Clavis
- The new design looks more SUVish. Full-LED lighting, 17-inch alloy wheels, roof rails add to the appeal.
- Loaded with features: twin 12.3-inch displays, 8-speaker BOSE branded audio system, 360° camera, front seat ventilation, wireless charging — the works!
- Space. One of the select few cars that can accommodate 6/7 adults with relative ease.
Maruti Suzuki XL6
- Captain seats are large and comfortable for wider passengers with dedicated armrests.
- Usable third row: Average-sized adults can be comfortable.
- Good practicality: Spacious glovebox, 4x 1-litre door pockets, seat back pockets and two cooled cup holders.

Kia Carens Clavis
- No CVT option with the non-turbo petrol engine. Diesel-automatic is available in a single variant.
- Features such as wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay and rear seat ventilation could have been offered with the top-variants.
- ADAS is offered only with the turbo-petrol engine + DCT combination in the top model.
Maruti Suzuki XL6
- A diesel engine option would’ve offered effortless performance on inter-state journeys.
- Misses some useful features like automatic day/night IRVM, rear window blinds and rear cup holders.
- Single-tone interior design has started to look old.
