The Electric Family Car India Has Been Waiting For
Picture this: You’re planning a weekend getaway with your extended family. Seven seats, zero emissions, and a range that actually makes sense for Indian roads. That’s exactly what Kia promises with the Carens Clavis EV, now available for booking at just ₹25,000.
Starting at ₹17.99 lakh (ex-showroom), this isn’t just another electric vehicle – it’s Kia’s answer to making sustainable mobility truly accessible for Indian families.
Two Batteries, One Smart Choice
Kia understands that one size doesn’t fit all, especially in India’s diverse landscape:
Standard Option: 42 kWh battery delivering 404 km range (ARAI-certified) Extended Range: 51.4 kWh battery pushing 490 km per charge
Whether you’re commuting within the city or planning that long-awaited road trip to the hills, there’s a Carens Clavis EV variant that fits your lifestyle.
Technology That Actually Makes Sense
Remember when car interiors felt more like spaceships than family spaces? Kia’s taken a different approach. The Carens Clavis EV features:
- A massive 26.62-inch dual panoramic display that transforms your dashboard
- 64 ambient lighting colors (because mood matters, even in traffic)
- Dual-pane panoramic sunroof for those “are we there yet?” moments
- Boss mode – finally, backseat comfort that matches the front
Power That Delivers
Under the hood (or rather, under the floor), you’ll find either 126 kW or 99 kW of power output, paired with 255 Nm of torque. Translation? This electric MPV doesn’t compromise on performance.
The real game-changer? 100 kW DC fast charging that takes you from 10% to 80% in just 39 minutes. Time for a quick coffee break, and you’re ready for another 300+ kilometers.
Safety First, Always
Joonsu Cho, Kia India’s Chief Sales Officer, wasn’t kidding when he called this a “pivotal moment.” The Carens Clavis EV comes loaded with:
- ADAS Level 2 with 20 autonomous driving features
- 18 high-safety features
- 90 connected car features
- Four levels of regenerative braking with paddle shifters
Colors That Speak Your Language
Choose from six stunning exterior options: Glacier White Pearl, Gravity Gray, Aurora Black Pearl, Pewter Olive, Imperial Blue, and Ivory Silver Matte. Because your family’s first electric vehicle should reflect your unique style.
The Variants Breakdown
Kia offers four thoughtfully crafted variants:
- HTK Plus (entry-level excellence)
- HTX (premium comfort)
- HTX ER (extended range)
- HTX Plus ER (the complete package)
Why This Matters for Indian Families
This isn’t just about joining the electric revolution – it’s about doing so without compromising on space, comfort, or practicality. With 250+ EV-ready workshops and 100+ dealerships equipped with DC fast chargers, Kia’s building an ecosystem, not just selling a car.
Ready to Join the Electric Revolution?
Bookings are now live on Kia’s official website and at dealerships nationwide. With just ₹25,000, you can secure your family’s ticket to the electric future.
