  • MPVs used to be something you bought more out of necessity than any particular desire for a big and often clumsy family car, with practicality often coming at the expense of any style or excitement.
    But recently things have changed, and cars like the stylish Kia Carens now prove that you can drive an MPV and look cool while doing it.
    With smart looks, plenty of equipment and attractive pricing to boot, do models like the Carens finally make the people carrier cool?
    In this review, we take an in-depth look at the interior of the Kia Carens including its boot size, dashboard and back seats. We then run through performance, price and finish up with the all-important verdict - is the Kia Carens a good car?
    Constantly updated, Car Keys provides first-hand video reviews, as well as all of the latest car news.

    This car, in my view, is the most stylish SUV. It actually looks sporty although it obviously isnt. But then if you want a sporty car you don't buy an SUV. Which is the obvious reposte to all those petrol head motoring journalists who criticise the way it handles. Believe me it's fine and it's easily the most comfortable car I've ever driven. The electrically adjusted drivers seat really hugs you so it's superb for a long run. You also get a lot for your money and with that 7 year warranty what's not to like.

    Great Review. Three things that I believe could be useful to include in reviews are the throttle response, body roll, motorway insulation.

    Two years ago I part-exchanged a 2012 VW Touran I.6 SE semi-auto with 71,000 miles on it which I'd owned for the previous two dreadful years for a 2017 Carens 3 diesel auto. Unlike the wretched VW the Carens has needed no visits to the garage other than for servicing in 20,000 miles. It just goes, and it looks like it'll keep on going. I appreciate it's a much younger car but I have to say the quality of the cabin and controls is also streets ahead of the nasty grey plasticy and fragile fittings in the VW. Only thing I didn't like was the non-adjustable and too-low front passenger seat.

    Hi it does look very smart and that the Kia warrant you can't go far wrong but I think the price is a bit too expensive for a Kia let's face it there are probably slightly better cars out there for the price cheers Phil

    Amazing that a 20% variance in the actual and advertised fuel economy can be shrugged off as "not that bad". Of course, it's not the Carens that's at fault, it is the industry standard. But honestly, how can the standard be acceptable if it is so misleading and so far off the mark? The industry testing standard absolutely must be changed.

      Hey Stephen, a new 'real world' test is set to be introduced next year, we actually ran an interesting article on this today if you want some more info: www.carkeys.co.uk/news/the-only-car-that-actually-passes-fuel-consumption-tests-a-430bhp-aston-martin

      agreed, bugged me for a long time, nothing short of fraud and totally unachievable in the real world. I hope the new tests are a lot more realistic

    You think this is better looking than rivals? It's as dull as dishwater. The current Citroën Picasso is the best looking MPV to have been sold in the UK.
