Kia Carens Spares
South Africa got the Kia Carens in two earlier generations and, from May 2026, a third time. The first local Carens arrived in June 2003 as a five-seater with a 2.0-litre common-rail turbodiesel (83 kW and 250 N.m), first with a five-speed manual and later a four-speed automatic. From July 2007 the second generation was a seven-seater with a 2.0-litre petrol engine (106 kW and 189 N.m) and a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic, and it left the local range around 2013. The Carens now on sale is built in India. It launched with a 1.5-litre turbodiesel (85 kW and 250 N.m) and a six-speed manual or automatic, and Kia South Africa now also lists a 1.5 petrol LS. We supply engines, gearboxes, tailgates, front bumpers and lights, subject to donor supply — send your VIN and engine number and we will confirm the part.
