for those who would like to buy the new Carens.....please do not think twice. i have been a user since it first came out. very satisfied. gasoline consumption is 12-14 km/liter. sobrang comfortable ang ride. plus talaga ang variable steering system wherein you can choose among comfort, sporty or normal modes.
Sir I do not own a Carens but what would be prohibiting people from getting this would be the bad rep of the suspension. A cousin living in Antipolo has the old one and is having issues with the suspension as they cannot pinpoint the problem. Do you think the 2013 suspension has been improved?
The deal breaker here is the price... Too pricey.... For a Kia...

the 12-14 is mostly Metro Manila driving. i work at the Entertainment City and goes home to Merville through Multinational.
I agree with you sir on this...
Comparing the Carens EX with the Top of the Line Toyota Innova Diesel, obviously the Carens EX has all the edge except that the Innova has a higher ground clearance... Price difference between the two is around 260K but with the discounts given by Kia for the EX variant, the price difference would go as low as 100K which I think is very very reasonable considering all the features you are getting with the Carens EX...
By the way I currently own the previous gen Toyota Innova V...
Thanks sir!
For sure if ever I will get the Carens much better pa ang FC because my daily route is from Alabang to Cabuyao, Laguna via SLEX.
Normal driving speed ko is 80 to 100kph![]()

hi louie, i am sure you will enjoy the new carens. the same way i am enjoying it. i thought i made a mistake when i sold my ford escape to buy a carens. to my surprise, these two (carens & escape) are two of my most comfortable rides ever.
Hey guys, what's your opinions on this?
