Kia Carens 2017 Front

Under the compact MPV segment, Kia and Honda are among the few trusted brands that provide ultimate performance and classic designs since day one. For instance, it’s hard to ignore the refreshed features of the Kia Carens and Honda Odyssey J.

Exterior

The revamped Kia Carens has new exterior hues of Mysterious Blue. The front fascia is upgraded with fog lights, new bumper, and Tiger-nose grille that creates a solid figure. The rear is integrated with new bumper and real lamps that use the brands latest lighting signature. But the higher roofline and floor of the Odyssey J makes it look sportier than Carens. It also features enhanced front fog lights and alloy wheels. This is better because of the unique grill in the midsection that adds more expression to its fascia. The true elegance is even more enhanced by the front, sides, and rear chrome flashes.
