The Kia Carens made its domestic market debut in early 2022 and it has been well received by customers. The MPV has already crossed the one lakh customer milestone and the new X-Line variants are expected to garner more consumers into the fold. The South Korean auto major is working on the facelifted Sonet and a few months ago, the updated Seltos was introduced.
