Kia has announced specifications for the upcoming Carens and Carens Clavis CNG models, marking the company’s entry into the factory-fitted CNG passenger vehicle segment in India. Prices are expected by the end of September or early October.
Both MPVs will use a 1.5-litre, four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine with a factory-fitted CNG system.
In CNG mode, the engine produces 22hp and 21Nm less than its petrol-powered counterpart.
The 60-litre CNG tank is positioned under the boot floor.
The CNG option will be available on lower variants.
The older Carens was previously available with a CNG option as a dealer-fitted kit, while the upcoming version will receive a factory-fitted system.
