Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

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 XL6
- The redesigned front face packs more attitude and offers better road presence.
- New safety and premium features are a welcome addition
- Captain seats are large and comfortable
- Spacious 3rd row
- High claimed fuel efficiency of 20.97kmpl (MT) and 20.27kmpl (AT)

Kia Carens Clavis

- 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.
Maruti XL6
- Some useful features like automatic day/night IRVM, rear window blinds and rear cup holders are still missing.
- No diesel option
- Curtain airbags for rear occupants should have been part of the safety features.
