STORY

Carens is Kia's compact people carrier, first sold in 1999 on the Sephia platform. The second generation debuted at the 2006 Los Angeles show and carried the Rondo name in North America and Rondo7 in Australia, while Europe kept Carens. The third generation was revealed at the Paris Motor Show in September 2012. Kia's European press kit lists a 1.7-litre CRDi diesel in two outputs, 115 PS and 136 PS. The torque of the stronger one is given as 330 Nm by some sources and 320 Nm by others.
