Despite offering a more upmarket look and feel, Kia's Carens hasn't abandoned its target clientele. Jonathan Crouch reports.

Ten Second Review
Kia's Carens is the market's most affordable five or seven-seat compact MPV. Despite that, it's a surprisingly appealing option for budget-minded families, with flexible seating, a decent specification, a lengthy warranty and a surprising amount of space for a car of this kind. In short, worth looking at before you consider a more obvious and much pricier rival in this segment. More efficient 1.6-litre petrol and diesel engines have now added to its appeal.
