Captain Seats and Easy Third-Row Access
The 6-seater replaces the second-row bench with two individual captain seats. As a result, middle-row passengers get more personal space and support on long drives. In addition, the gap between the seats creates a walkway, so third-row passengers can get in without tumbling a seat. This makes it ideal for families travelling with elderly parents or teenagers.
Kia Carens Clavis EV HTX 6-Seater Features
Alongside the captain seats, it gets Level 2 ADAS with 20 features, including smart cruise control with stop and go and lane following assist. It also offers a dual-pane panoramic sunroof, 64-colour ambient lighting and a Smart Pure air purifier. Moreover, dual 12.25-inch screens and roof-mounted rear AC vents add comfort. For safety, it gets 6 airbags and a rear occupant alert. However, it skips ventilated seats, Bose audio and a digital key.

What's good
-
Huge Space: It is one of the few electric cars where the third row is actually comfortable for adults.
-
Safety Features: Having Level 2 ADAS and 6 airbags makes it a great choice for families.
Cool Tech: Features like ventilated seats and the Bose sound system make it feel like a luxury car.
What's not so good
-
Large Size: It is a long car, so it can be a bit hard to find parking in crowded city areas.
-
Low Ground Clearance: When the car is full of people, it sits a bit low, so you have to be careful over very large speed breakers.
-
No Spare Tire: It comes with a puncture kit instead of a full spare tyre, which can be scary on long trips.
