Kia Syros: The Boxy Compact SUV Ready to Disrupt the Indian Market
Perfectly positioned between the Sonet and Seltos, the new Kia Syros introduces a rugged, boxy exterior along with premium features in the compact SUV category.
Overview
Kia India is on track to solidify its presence in the SUV segment with the upcoming Syros, an innovative compact SUV poised for a mid-2026 launch.
In contrast to the sporty Sonet, the Syros embraces a tall, boxy, and robust design inspired by the flagship EV9, ensuring ample headroom and a commanding presence on the road.
Targeted as a premium family vehicle, the interior is set to feature dual 10.25-inch screens, a panoramic sunroof, ventilated seating, and Level 2 ADAS for enhanced safety.
Under the hood, the Syros is expected to offer powertrain options similar to the Sonet, including the dependable 1.2L naturally aspirated petrol and the dynamic 1.0L turbo-petrol, available with both manual and DCT transmissions.
With a price range anticipated between ₹12 Lakh and ₹17 Lakh, the Syros aims to deliver a mini-Seltos experience for those who value spacious interiors and cutting-edge technology over sporty performance.
