Kia has revealed its Syros SUV in India and this is a sub 4m SUV that is slightly bigger than the Sonet but promises to have even more space than the Seltos.

Deliveries will start from February 2025 while prices would be revealed in January.

 

Colour options include Frost Blue, Pewter Olive, Aurora Black Pearl, Intense Red, Gravity Grey, Imperial Blue, Sparkling Silver plus Glacier White Pearl.

If we talk about dimensions, then the Syros has a length of 3,995mm, width of 1,800mm, and a height of 1,665mm. If we talk about the wheelbase then it is 2,550mm.

The SUV also has a claimed boot capacity of 465 litres.

 

 

Looks wise, it is a boxy SUV that borrows styling cues from the EV9 and has a lot more space than what its length suggests.

The front-end has vertical LEDs and a styling theme which is radical while the roofline stays flat for a boxy look while the rear headroom is maximised.

Then the Syros also gets flush door handles and 17-inch wheels for the top-end trim along with tail-lamps in L shape.

 

The interiors are unlike the Sonet and gets a large digital instrument cluster as well as a touchscreen with features like connected car tech with OTA updates, 360 degree camera and more.

 

Other features include ADAS level 2, a panoramic sunroof, reclining rear seats, a wireless charging pad, dual row ventilated seats, 8 speaker audio system, a powered handbrake and more.

 

In terms of engine options, the Syros comes with  a 1.0l turbo petrol as standard unlike the Sonet while there is also a 1.5l diesel.

 

The turbo petrol has a DCT and a manual transmission and the diesel has a manual and a torque converter automatic too.

 

The Syros enters into a crowded sub 4m SUV segment but Kia says it has the space to match bigger SUVs.
