Kia has been spied testing its affordable electric MPV in India to become the first company launching an electric MPV. This is the Carens EV that was spied on the roads undergoing tests which looks the same in size as the ICE version.
Kia Carens EV Spotted in India: All Details!
Kia Carens EV was spotted in India completely camouflaged not revealing any details. From what we’ve seen from the spy shots, the front fascia looks reminiscent to the Kia EV5 like the L-shape LED DRLs within the headlamps unit connected by a thin LED light bar. The headlamp unit appears to be LED Projector and it’s possible the top-spec trim may get the full LED setup. The rear profile sees the C-shape connected LED Tail-lamps, and subtle changes to the bumpers both front and rear.
