Kia Clavis: New Sub-4 Meter Crossover From India Production

Kia has chosen a name for its upcoming crossover. It will be called Clavis and production is set to take place in India, according to sources cited by Autocar India. The designation signals Kia’s intent to broaden its small-to-midsize SUV lineup in a market where competition is intense and consumer expectations are high. The naming choice and manufacturing plan reflect Kia’s strategic push to blend contemporary design with practical, locally tuned engineering that resonates with Indian buyers and regional markets across North America as well. Autocar India notes the corroboration from multiple channels, underscoring a coordinated effort to bring a fresh model to the sub-4-meter category and to align with India’s evolving automotive policies and consumer demand.
