At the same budget, let's consider highest selling variant of XL6, that's Zeta. If you compare XL6 Zeta AT with Caren's Prestige 1.4L 7 seater Manual which cost same on-road, XL6 is way way better option with better looks, more features, better pre and after sales network, better service network and better resale value. Also, XL6 holds double the market share than Kia's carens. I'm buying XL6 after comparing all the cars. Kia has to improve their staff behaviour, they don't care about the customer at all, no one cares to even talk to you when you're there to buy their car. This is the same behaviour I had seen in Ford. Some Nexa showroos are same, won't lie, as they have way higher demand but not a single Kia's showroom I visited was willing to talk. Also, the most important thing, mileage, Karen's actual on-road figure is about 50-60% of XL6, 7-9 KMPL in comparison to 13-16 KMPL. A colleague has a Seltos which has the same engine as Carens and they literally prefer to drive their Audi over it for mileage. XL6 is a way better package at the cost it sells, although the differences shrink as you go up on its variants.
Great comparison. But as reliability goes, if we compare the petrol trims, XL6's TC Unit fairs better than Carens's DCT unit. MPV+DCT not a perfect combo.
Xl6 cant accommodate adults in 3rd row, carens can. My head was hitting roof in 3rd row in xl6. That was key factor for me in booking a carens. Carens is better in all departments barring it's to be seen long term reliability, as it's a new vehicle. There's bound to be issues popping up in a 1st gen, if kia can rectify all, no problem then
Whenever Vikranth Singh enters the picture, the scene lightens up very well😀. Kia Carens is a really compelling package than what others in this segment offers and more vehicles should try to fill this space apart from these two.
You forgot to mention the blinds in the second row of the Carens they are a boon in hot Indian summers and those overhead a/c vents work very well: never close those vents and never shut off the rear blower for fear of condensation over the roof of the Carens.
Please talk about service of Maruti vs Kia. On this count alone, it is advisable to give Kia a miss. We have sen over the years, each and every new make has faded away. The only ones which are here to stay are Maruti, Honda, Hyundai and Toyota.
When comparing bootspace the person unnecessarily tilts the luggage tries it and suddenly pivots it in xl6…Carens is a good car! But need not undermine the competition
One of the worst comparison.Performance, Luxury and other aspects of XL6 is much better than what you show cased in the video. Know the realities and do the reviews.
Nice and beautiful with simple and practical explanations along with differences and mass features.. I am going to buy Kia carens.. thanq sir. Helped a lot.
Dear Vikrant, considering the great trust people have in you, I humbly request you to please tell us about your thoughts on the 3 star rating. I know there is a lot of the and cry about this, but do you think 3 stars are adequate for city usage? Thanks in advance.
We thought about it… but given so many buyers choose top spec variants over mid spec or entry level versions, we thought this type of comparison might give viewers and buyers a different perspective.
Sir, you seem to be victim of being confirmation baised. You have already decided carens is better than Xl6. But let's be aware the models you are comparing are 5lacs apart.
❤🤍❤🤍 I have bought Carens Diesel prestige (manual transmission). Iam very much satisfied, Excellent ride wuality, even better than Innova, mileage is best,more than 22km/ liter.💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍
Now that you have watched the video, what would you do? Save or Spend?
Probably, spend
Ex xl6 owner here. Xl6 is joy to drive in bumper to bumper traffic of blr due to its smart hybrid technology.

Best practical review and comparison between the two cars. You are spot on with all the aspects you have covered.
I find your videos so relaxing. Good review once again.
Thank you Jimmy!

One of the best comparison videos.

On budget ,will go with xl6
Good comparison but please compare the cars with same price,so that we can choose cars according to our budget
Awesome comparison video🙂
Can u throw light on Mileage of both the cars...? Petrol Automatic Versions
Iam a pride owner of kia carens🥰
Vikrant Sir Again A Great Review One Thing which Varient In Carens Is Vfm package Its an eye opener for all Too many Trims in kia / Hyundai stable
The XL6 had more height than the Carens yet when you took the reins through the second row, your head kissed the roof.
Petrol me xl6❤
Diesel me carens❤

The goal is to show how numbers don't necessarily translate to usable space, not undermining anyone.
He didn't try to fit the luggage property.

Very true… Seat comfort is good in xl6 compared to carrens
Xl6 better products. 4 lakhs difference thoda hota hain. Aur mileage xl6 ka jabardast hain. Not a good review.
Nice and beautiful with simple and practical explanations along with differences and mass features.. I am going to buy Kia carens.. thanq sir. Helped a lot.
Good to know. And thanks for the appreciation.
Confused b/w carens and XL 6. My priority is 7seat option and enough engine power
Carens

4 lakhs matter Boss. I found xl6 more value for money product. Also discuss on mileage😂
Would've been better to compare similarly priced trims
We thought about it… but given so many buyers choose top spec variants over mid spec or entry level versions, we thought this type of comparison might give viewers and buyers a different perspective.
@@vikrantsingh6916 true, as a buyer, this would’ve been my thought
The Carens Prestige Plus Turbo Petrol vs XL6 top AT Variant.. The Carens still is the better package and the better car .. In my humble opinion
XL 6 is better value for money
@@anki53 i went with carens petrol na 1.5 prestige eventually...
For the money we give XL-6 offers more. We will go with XL-6 rather than with its Korean competitor.
how's the performance of kia Carens 1.5 petrol is it good or should i go for XL6 plz suggest who own the cars
The Kia Carens is definitely peppier and quicker
Mileage kitna gain 8-10 ka😂😂😂
Finally you told Kia carens is the best MPV compare with XL6.
Give 4 disc brakes to the xl6 alpha plus variant at least.
Sir, you seem to be victim of being confirmation baised. You have already decided carens is better than Xl6. But let's be aware the models you are comparing are 5lacs apart.
Result not surprising carens is far better engine and transmisson
U r Kia agent brother
True.. I also did the test drive of both... Carens is 40% better than xL6 ,or Eartiga or Rumion
❤🤍❤🤍 I have bought Carens Diesel prestige (manual transmission). Iam very much satisfied, Excellent ride wuality, even better than Innova, mileage is best,more than 22km/ liter.💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍
Jo 5 lakh jyada diye. Uska recover karne mein 5 saal lagenge. Bad planning bro😢😢
Crysta 🤴
Too too too expensive.
@@vikrantsingh6916 True; and going to become more so once it becomes a hybrid.
