Just few days ago, Kia Clavis was spotted and there were expectations it would be positioned below the Kia Sonet SUV as an affordable Micro-SUV based on Hyundai’s Exter, but now it’s being said, the SUV will be positioned between the Sonet, and the Seltos. Let’s break it down for you.

Kia Clavis: What you need to know!

So, apparently, Kia thinks that the gap between the Sonet and the Seltos can only be filled by the Made-for-India SUV, Clavis. It’s being positioned as rugged, tall-stance lifestyle SUV with boxy design. The Clavis will be getting multiple powertrains like the 1.2 L NA Petrol, 1.0 L Turbo Petrol, and the 1.5 L Diesel Engine. It’ll have multiple gearbox options – 5 Speed MT, 6 Speed IMT / AT / MT, and 7 Speed DCT.

Since, its position above the Sonet, it’ll have features like 360 Surround View Camera, ventilated seats, Front and Rear Parking Sensors, 10.25-inch dual displays – Infotainment System, and Digital Instrument Cluster, Air Purifier, LED Projector Headlamps, Powered Driver Seat, Level 2 ADAS, and so much more.

It’s possible the Clavis could be inspired from their own lifestyle SUV called the Kia Ray (sold in South Korea). It could feature full-folding seats for all the seats including the driver seat. When you decide to go camping and reach your destination, you fully fold all the seats to make it your bed, and take rest. Moreover, it could sliding doors for the SUV making it the only SUV to have this feature.

Kia is looking to create its own segment again with the Clavis and would have no rivals on launch. The Clavis will also spawn an EV powertrain. The Clavis will be unveiled at the end of 2024 with launch taking place in around mid 2025.
