The Syros is designed with a modern and rugged look, drawing inspiration from Kia's EV9 and Carnival models. It features vertically stacked LED headlights, L-shaped LED taillights, a bold front bumper, and a boxy profile. The interior boasts premium touches such as a panoramic sunroof, a dual-screen setup with infotainment and digital displays, a 360-degree camera, and wireless charging?
Regarding performance, the Syros is expected to offer two engine options: a 1.0-liter turbo petrol engine (120PS/172Nm) and a 1.5-liter diesel engine (116PS/250Nm). Transmission options will include a 6-speed manual, a 6-speed iMT, a 6-speed automatic, and a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic?
The launch of the Syros in India is anticipated in early 2025, and its pricing is expected to fall between the Sonet and Seltos models
