In a move to capture the mass market in the Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) segment, the leading carmaker Kia India has launched a new model called Syros. It is a sub-4-metre vehicle that has been positioned between Sonet and Seltos.
The latest offering has been offered in four standard trims and 2 option trims. The names included HTK, HTK (O), HTK+, HTX, and HTX+, HTX+(O). The company has not revealed the price details as of now. However, we feel that the base model is likely to flaunt a price tag under Rs 9 lakh, while the top model is likely to go up to Rs 17 lakh (all ex-showroom).
Bookings and Delivery
Interested customers will be able to pre-book the vehicle from January 3, 2025, and the deliveries will kickstart early February 2025.
Engine
The Kia Syros has been treated with two engine options, same as the Sonet. It gets 1.0-litre T-GDi petrol engine that generates a maximum power of 118 bhp and 172Nm. There is a 1.5-litre CRDi VGT diesel engine as well that churns out a maximum output of 114 bhp and 250Nm of peak torque.
The units are paired with a 6-speed MT, a 7-speed DCT (Petrol), a 6-speed MT and a 6-speed AT (Diesel).
Featured
The model is packed with a long list of trending yet segment’s first features. The list includes ADAS level 2 with more than 15 autonomous safety features, EV6-inspire multi-functional steering wheel, wireless charger, all ventilated seats with slide and reclining functions, multiple charging socket, panoramic sunroof, robust infotainment system with all wireless car connect technology including Android, Apple and Auto Carplay.
Design
Talking about the road presence, it seems like the comapny has taken inspiration from older sibling Carens. The model gets Kia’s signature style starmap LED headlight unit, paired with integrated DRLs, along with the eye-catching digital tiger face grille.
When it comes to the rear, the section features L-shaped LED taillamps, flaunting boxy look that makes it look more muscular the segment. The other notable elements include flush door handles, 17-inch crystal-cut alloy wheels and puddle lamps with Kia logo projection.
