Just ahead of its world premiere at the 2012 Paris Motor Show on September 27, Kia has nicked the covers off its all-new Carens MPV.
The new iteration of the Carens, which in its previous form was marketed worldwide under various nameplates, including the Rondo in the United States and Canada up until its demise in 2010, sports a fresh and far more modern design than the model it replaces.
The South Korean carmaker is keeping most details secret until the public unveiling of the car in Paris, but from what we understand, the Carens not only looks like a minivan variant of the Cee'd hatchback but is also based on a modified version of its platform and is likely to share the same engine lineup – at least in Europe.
