Dual-tone alloy wheels, Level 2 ADAS suite confirmed
- Coexists with the existing Carens lineup
- Features a panoramic sunroof and advanced safety tech
Set to break cover tomorrow, the 2025 Kia Clavis has been caught undisguised, revealing its distinct identity. Initially thought to be a mid-cycle refresh for the Carens, Kia has clarified that this model will stand as a unique offering alongside its predecessor.
Exterior Design Highlights
The Clavis showcases a bold evolution in styling. Spy shots reveal sleek, semi-transparent LED tail lamps paired with a full-width connected light bar at the rear, complemented by a prominent ‘Clavis’ badge. The vehicle also sports redesigned front and rear bumpers, updated LED headlights with integrated DRLs, and revamped skid plates. New dual-tone alloy wheels and restyled roof rails add a premium touch.
Interior and Feature Upgrades
Inside, the Clavis promises a refined cabin experience. A confirmed panoramic sunroof floods the interior with light, while a Level 2 ADAS suite enhances safety with features like adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assist. Anticipated upgrades include premium upholstery, a reconfigured dashboard layout, a 360-degree surround-view camera, and ventilated front seats for added comfort.
Powertrain Expectations
While Kia has kept technical details under wraps, the Clavis is likely to inherit the Carens’ versatile engine lineup: a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol, a 1.5-litre diesel, and a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol. These are expected to be paired with a mix of manual and automatic transmission options, ensuring flexibility for buyers.
The Kia Clavis is poised to redefine its segment with a blend of cutting-edge features and distinctive design, all while sharing showroom space with the current Carens.
