Chronology
PredecessorKia Joice

The Kia Carens (Korean: 기아 카렌스) is a (C-segment) compact MPV manufactured by Kia since 1999, spanning over four generations, and was marketed worldwide under various nameplates, prominently as the Kia Rondo.

The initial three generations had an MPV body style. They were marketed worldwide, with presence in their home country, South Korea, in Europe, and North America since the second generation.[clarification needed]

The fourth-generation model came out at the end of 2021, retaining the MPV body style, with some different approach in terms of design and targeted markets, as it was developed as a "strategic model" for the Indian market, and it adopts a crossover-inspired exterior design.[1]

The name "Carens" derives from the word "car" and "renaissance", while the name "Rondo" derives from the musical term Rondo.[2][3][4]

The second generation Carens, known as the UN series, was launched in 2006. The Carens/Rondo followed Kia's introduction at the Frankfurt Motor Show of the Multi-S,[9] essentially the Carens/Rondo in concept form — the S standing for Sporty, Spacious and Smart. The Multi-S differed significantly from the production model, only its inclusion of a dual panel sunroof running the length of the roof.[9] In North America and Australia, the car is called the Rondo and Rondo7 respectively.

The Rondo made its public debut at the 2006 Los Angeles International Auto Show, with the 2007 model's North American sales debut in December 2006 in Canada and early 2007 in the United States. In Australia, sales commenced April 2008.

In the United States, Kia sold more than 20,000 units in each of the first two model years exceeding internal sales goals. Sales rapidly declined in the 2009 model year and remained low in 2010, its final model year.

North America

Available as a five or optional seven passenger vehicle with either a standard 175 hp 2.4-litre 4-cylinder engine or an optional 192 hp 2.7-litre V6 engine in two trim levels. In Australia, it is only available as a seven-passenger vehicle with a 2.0-litre four cylinder engine and a choice of an automatic or manual transmission, depending on trim level. The V6 was Kia's last engine to use a timing belt instead of a timing chain.

Standard features depending on market include: sixteen inch alloy wheels, AM/FM/CD player/Sirius Satellite Radio/MP3 Capability, iPod auxiliary jack, air conditioning, power windows and door locks, front/side/full length Side curtain airbags, four wheel disc brakes, ABS, electronic stability control, tire pressure monitoring system, LATCH, child safety door locks, tilt steering column, front and rear twelve volt outlets, front and rear cup holders.

Options include: moonroof, leather interior, heated front seats, cruise control, keyless entry, Infinity ten speaker stereo, automated climate control.

As of August 2010, Kia discontinued the Rondo in the United States and continued to market the 2011 facelifted Carens/Rondo in Canada, adopting Kia's new grille.

Kia debuted the third-generation Carens (codename: RP) in September 2012 at the 2012 Paris Motor Show. The V6 from the second generation has been dropped, and in its place is the option of a 2.0-litre Nu four-cylinder GDI petrol, producing 122 kW (166 PS; 164 hp) and 213 N⋅m (157 lb⋅ft), or a 1.7-litre U2 four-cylinder diesel producing 100 kW (136 PS; 134 hp) and 320 N⋅m (236 lb⋅ft), both paired either with a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic. A 1.6-litre GDI petrol engine was also available in the UK. The Carens is offered in either 5-seat or 7-seat configurations. Sales began in March 2013 in South Korea.

In North America, the third generation Kia Rondo was only available in Canada, due to slow sales in the United States.[15] Sales in Canada ended after the 2017 model year.

The fourth-generation Carens was revealed in India on 16 December 2021.[23] It was developed under the codename "KY".[24] Based on a stretched Seltos/Hyundai Creta platform, it is mainly marketed for India and other emerging markets as opposed to previous generations.[25] It is marketed by Kia as a "recreational vehicle" (RV) with 6-seater and 7-seater configurations offered and was developed with an emphasis on space for third-row seat occupants.[26][27]

The model shared the same powertrain and gearbox options as the Indian-made Seltos, consisting of two petrol engines and one diesel engine. The petrol engines are 1.5-litre naturally aspirated engine that makes 115 PS (85 kW; 113 hp) paired with six-speed manual transmission or CVT, and a 1.4-litre Smartstream turbocharged engine that produces 140 PS (103 kW; 138 hp) paired with six-speed manual transmission or a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. The diesel engine is a 1.5-litre U-Line unit that produces 115 PS (85 kW; 113 hp) paired with six-speed manual transmission or six-speed torque-converter automatic.[28]

The interior includes dual 12.25-inch displays—one for the infotainment system and another as a digital instrument cluster. Additional features include a panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, a premium audio system, ambient lighting, wireless charging, and a 4-way power-adjustable driver's seat. Safety upgrades on the Clavis variant include Level 2 ADAS, a 360-degree camera, and six airbags.[31][32]

The Carens Clavis is offered with three engine options: a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine, a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine, and a 1.5-litre diesel engine. Transmission choices include a 6-speed manual transmission, a 6-speed intelligent manual transmission (iMT), and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT).[33][34]

Safety

Template:Global NCAP

The fourth-generation Carens for the Indian market is equipped as standard with two frontal airbags, two front-seat side body airbags, two head-protecting curtain airbags covering the first two rows, antilock brakes, Electronic Stability Control, hill-hold and a tyre pressure monitor.[27]

Kia sponsored Global NCAP crashworthiness assessment for the Carens in March 2022 with results published in late June. The Carens was the last model to be assessed against the 2017-22 Global NCAP 1.0 protocols. In the frontal offset test, front occupant head and neck protection was good and airbag contact was stable.[48] Dummy readings showed some limited chest compression and chest protection was further downrated to 'marginal' because the passenger compartment became unstable, load path failures indicating poor reproducibility of structural measurements. Pedal movement was high, which was the major reason for the low score.[49]

Kia also sponsored a regulatory side impact test according to the ECE Regulation 95 protocols and the Carens passed, but this could not be used in the assessment because the Carens did not reach the minimum points in the frontal impact for a five star result. Template:Global NCAP In a bid to improve the Carens' star rating, Kia made changes to the structure of the Carens for Indian units produced from 2 May 2023, also adding three-point seatbelts to all seats and compatibility with i-Size child restraints.[50] This updated version was retested by Global NCAP and assessed against updated evaluation criteria. In the first retest, the pedals still intruded excessively and the passenger compartment became unstable again. Moreover, the driver's airbag was still inflating as the dummy's head made contact, resulting in dummy values showing an unacceptably high risk of serious or fatal neck injury, enough for Global NCAP to immediately award the Carens zero stars based on this alone. Child occupants were better protected than earlier because Kia selected new child restraints facing backwards.[51] Template:Global NCAP

With unspecified changes to the restraint systems for units produced from 11 December 2023, dummy values in a subsequent retest indicated risk of serious or fatal neck injury, while other problems persisted. This version was awarded three stars for adult protection by Global NCAP.[52]
