Kia India future roadmap

At this moment, Kia India offers four models — Seltos, Sonet, Carens and EV6. The Carnival was discontinued, making way for the new-gen model that is on its way for the Indian market. While both the Seltos and Sonet have already been updated with major facelifts, the Carens is due for a facelift, which has already been spied on multiple occasions. The new Carens will offer a new design, putting the MPV in line with the new Kia models.
