Here is a closer look at six new family-oriented MPVs expected to launch in India over the next few years
The MPV space is waiting to witness a huge surge in volume as manufacturers plan a mix of internal combustion and electric models to meet shifting consumer demands. By introducing new options, automakers are set to renew the MPV landscape, offering greater adaptability for modern lifestyles with an emphasis on practicality and eco-friendliness. Here’s a closer look at what lies ahead:
1. Kia Carens Facelift:
Spy shots of the upcoming Kia Carens facelift hint at a range of design improvements. Key updates include newly styled LED headlamps connected by a sleek light bar, a reworked grille with new inserts, and revamped alloy wheels. The front and rear bumpers will also feature updated designs while the tail lamps will take cues from the latest Kia models. Although the equipment list is expected to see significant enhancements, the facelift is unlikely to introduce major mechanical changes.
2. Kia Electric RV:
Kia is reportedly developing an electric vehicle specifically for the Indian market, likely based on the Carens platform. Targeting family-focused buyers, this upcoming EV is expected to debut by late 2025. It is expected to have a range of 450 to 500 km on a single charge.
