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.
MG Hector Plus
- Easy-to-drive: Both petrol and diesel engines offer a smooth drive experience.
- Generous cabin space: Puts its wheelbase to good use, offering good leg space even for occupants over 6ft tall
- Good feature list: Offers a massive 14-inch touchscreen, gesture control, a 360-degree camera, and ADAS Level 2 features
- Comfortable Ride: Offers a good ride quality over bad roads and keeps the occupants comfortable
- Good cabin quality: Both the plastics and soft touch materials have a smooth and consistent finish

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.
MG Hector Plus
- ADAS is limited to the top-spec trim only
- Incomplete Powertrain: The lack of a diesel automatic powertrain feels like a fixable miss
- Polarising Look: Design, while distinctive, may not be to everyone’s taste. Styling may be too busy for some
- Needs Physical Buttons: Even with the gesture controls, the large touchscreen is still not ergonomic to use on the move
