Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Maruti Suzuki Ertiga
- Comfortable 7-seater family car with usable space and practicality in all rows.
- Ride quality is comfortable over imperfections and regular speedbreakers.
- Available with a CNG: barely any difference in performance within city limits.
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 Ertiga
- No diesel engine options: would’ve been great for efficient highway runs.
- Boot space: Strictly limited to a couple of mid-sized suitcases with all three rows up.
- No tumble and fold function for the second row: would’ve made third row ingress-egress easier.
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.
