Car Profiles - Kia Carens

KIA CARENS

One stare at this, and you'll forget about the staid looks of the previous model. Powerful diesel engine coupled with leather seats and sun roof in 1.7 EX. A choice for those who want something low and car-like.

The Good: Efficient and powerful diesels, kitted with everything except a kitchen sink, stylishly modern family MPV.
The Bad: Not that much spacious, not that cheap.

Price Range: P1,195,000-P1,525,000
Our Rating: ****
