Kia Carens Engines and Transmissions
Kia Carens engine options cover both fuels: petrol units such as the 1.6 MT and 2.0 MT pair with a manual gearbox, while the 2.0 AT diesel adds an automatic. Every powertrain here sends drive to the front wheels, a drivetrain layout that keeps the floor low and interior space usable.

Kia Carens Trims and Equipment
Kia Carens trim levels sit on top of a technical version rather than replacing it. The petrol 2.0 AT, for example, appears as LX 5-seat and LX 7-seat, so the mechanical package stays identical while seating capacity and cabin equipment differ. Choosing between them is mainly about how often you carry extra passengers.
