The reason for the no 1.2 L NA Petrol engine could be to keep it as a premium SUV over the Sonet SUV since it’ll be positioned higher. Additionally, the Syros will be fifth model from Kia to be offered with an diesel powertrain in India.
The Syros showcases a bold, boxy design that echoes elements from Kia’s broader lineup, such as the tiger-nose grille and vertically stacked LED headlights with striking LED DRLs. Its silhouette is designed for a strong road presence, complemented by sleek LED tail lamps. A distinctive feature includes a window line with a sharp kink towards the rear, reminiscent of the Skoda Yeti, enhancing both style and practicality.
Inside, the Syros promises a premium feel with a panoramic sunroof, which not only adds to the cabin’s luxury but also elevates the overall driving experience. The interior is expected to feature a dual-tone theme, a large 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a fully digital instrument cluster, wireless charging, and ventilated front seats. The cabin space is maximized with an upright design, offering more room for passengers and cargo, making it a practical choice for urban and family use.
Kia Syros will be equipped with Level 2 ADAS with functions like adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and collision avoidance systems, all hinted at by cameras mounted on the windshield. Safety is further bolstered with six airbags, parking sensors, a 360-degree camera, and hill-hold assist expected to be standard in higher variants.
