7 Missing Features In Maruti Nexa XL6 Over Kia Carens | V3Cars

Maruti Suzuki recently launched the updated 2022 XL6 to rival the popular Kia Carens. The Carens is the latest product from Kia in India and it comes with an impressive price tag. The Carens comes loaded with a ton of features and now Maruti Suzuki also added new features to the XL6 in a bid to make it more appealing to buyers.

Maruti Nexa XL6 Features Over Kia Carens

Here are 7 features that are missing in the XL6 but present in the Carens.

1. 10.25-inch Touchscreen

Kia offer a large 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system with telematics, Android Auto and AppleCarPlay with the Carens. The XL6, however, continues to get a 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system.  Fortunately, it too offers telematics, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

2. Digital Driver’s Display

The Carens comes with an all-digital LCD driver’s display. The driver’s display gets several visual themes that change according to the selected drive mode. On the other hand, the XL6 comes with a conventional dial setup with a colour MID in the middle.

3. Drive Modes

The Kia Carens comes with multiple drive modes. Users can choose from Eco, Normal and Sport, which change the characteristics of the engine and gearbox. The XL6, on the other hand, comes with a manual mode for the transmission but no dedicated modes to alter engine and gearbox response.

4. Diesel And Turbo Petrol Engines

Kia offer the Carens with three engine options — 1.5L normal petrol, 1.4L turbo petrol and 1.5L turbo diesel. The 2 turbocharged engines come with both manual and automatic transmission options. Meanwhile, the XL6 is only offered with a 1.5L normal petrol engine. It gets 2 transmission options – a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed torque converter automatic transmission.

5. Electric Sunroof

Kia offer the Carens with a regular-sized electric sunroof. Meanwhile, no car from Maruti Suzuki’s Nexa portfolio offer the option of an electric sunroof to date. The upcoming Grand Vitara, which will be sold via Maruti Nexa, will change all that as it is likely to offer a large panoramic sunroof.

6. 6 Airbags

The Carens comes with 6-airbags as standard across all the variants along with other standard safety features. The XL6, meanwhile, comes with 4 airbags as standard across all the variants. If you want to know why the new XL6 doesn’t get 6 airbags, click here.
