The upcoming Kia Syros will be revealed on December 19; Price announcement in January 2025.
Kia India is all set to launch the Syros compact SUV in the Indian market, which will be positioned above the Sonet in the brand’s line-up. Ahead of the launch, the Korean carmaker has partially revealed the exterior design of the sub-4-meter SUV. Let’s look at the design details of the Kia Syros.
Kia Syros Design Revealed: Front Fascia
Upfront, the teaser highlights the new tri-beam LED headlamp with integrated DRLs and a black bumper paired with a silver skid plate. The headlamps give the SUV a premium appeal, however, the black bumper speaks of cost saving. The grille is yet to be revealed and we expect it to be a bit different from the current lot of Kia SUVs.
Kia Syros Design Revealed: Side Profile and Alloy Wheels
The side profile reveals that the SUV will sport an upright stance with clean lines and flush-type door handles. The ORVMs are mounted on the door rather than the A-pillar. The side body cladding is prominent and heavy. The teaser also reveals the 17-inch alloy wheels on the Kia Syros.
Kia Syros Design Revealed: What Else?
The new Kia Syros will get panoramic sunroof on the top-spec trims and we can also spot roof rails in the teaser. The rear profile will have vertically stacked sleek tail lamps, positioned on the sides of the rear windshield. A beefy bumper at the back will also be a part of the package.
Kia Syros Powertrain and Expected Pricing
The Syros will be powered by the familiar 1.0-litre tGDi petrol and 1.5-litre CRDi diesel engines. The turbo petrol unit will get a manual and a 7-speed DCT gearbox while the turbo diesel will rely on a 6-speed manual and a 6-speed torque converter automatic gearbox.
Being offered with the 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine, the Syros will command a good premium over the Sonet and we expect the prices to start from Rs. 10 lakh (ex-showroom).
