Source Notes / Discrepancies

Notes No independent crash-test rating exists yet for the Carens Clavis generation itself; the 3-Star Global NCAP figure quoted in market coverage refers to the earlier, pre-facelift Carens and is carried over here for reference only, not a confirmed rating for this generation. Diesel engine's exact power and torque figures were not confirmed from a reliable source and are omitted. Specs sourced primarily from CarDekho's spec sheet.
