Kia, India’s mass premium carmaker Today teased the upcoming Clavis in its inimitable style. The teaser film showcases the Clavis meandering through the wilderness, only to come face-to-face with a mysterious Viking warrior.

The teaser published by Kia showcases the advanced ADAS 2.0 technology of the Clavis. The teaser begins with a stunning shot of a silver Clavis smoothly meandering through the wilderness, slicing through the silvery mist amidst the woods. Its LED DRLs seem like the glowing eyes of a nocturnal beast. Suddenly, the ADAS of Clavis detects the presence of someone in its path and it slows to a halt.

Awash in the glow of the LED Headlamps, we see the face of a mysterious Viking warrior staring at the Clavis. His headgear sports a unique design, which is similar to the front design of the Clavis.
“The Clavis. Coming Soon.” Says the super along with heightened music.
