The Korean car manufacturer has mentioned that half of the Carens’ sales come from the mid and top-spec variants, which get features like the sunroof, ventilated seats, and connected car tech features. In the top-spec X-Line variant, you also get a matte shade which brings in a ‘stealth’ factor.

The sales milestone is undoubtedly impressive, but it doesn't come as much of a surprise, keeping in mind that the Carens has always been a well-rounded package. Its unique styling might not cater to everyone's taste, but its features list and premium cabin will surely impress you.
