KIA Syros

Key Features of KIA Syros

• 
  Dual Pane Panoramic Sunroof

  The Kia Syros comes equipped with a dual-pane panoramic sunroof, a feature highly sought-after by modern car buyers. This sunroof not only adds character to the cabin but also floods it with natural light, enhancing the overall ambience.

• 
  Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS)

  The Syros features Level 2 ADAS with 16 autonomous driving assistive features, including adaptive cruise control, front collision warning, leading vehicle departure warning, and lane keep assist. These features prioritize safety while also serving as a brag-worthy addition for tech-savvy buyers.

• 
  Front & Rear Ventilated Seats

  Setting a new standard in comfort, the Kia Syros offers ventilated seats for both the front and rear rows- a first in the segment. Typically, only the front row receives this feature, but the Syros ensures rear passengers also experience premium comfort.

• 
  30-Inch Trinity Panoramic Display Panel

  A standout feature of the Syros is the 30-inch Trinity Panoramic Display Panel. This innovative setup integrates two 12.3-inch displays for the digital instrument cluster and infotainment system, with a 5-inch touchscreen for climate control in between.

• 
  6 Airbags

  Safety is a priority in the Kia Syros, which comes standard with six airbags to ensure maximum protection for all passengers in the event of a collision.

• 
  360-Degree Camera

  The Syros includes a 360-degree camera system, providing a comprehensive view of the surroundings to assist in parking and navigating tight spaces effortlessly.

• 
  OTA Updates

  The infotainment system in this car will update automatically, as the chipset inside it will receive updates periodically. It also comes equipped with features like Kia Connect Diagnosis, a wake-up command, and multilingual VR commands. None of its competitors or the Sonet offer these features.

• 
  Harman Kardon Premium 8-Speaker Sound System

  Kia elevates the audio experience with the Harman Kardon Premium 8-speaker sound system. While most cars in this segment settle for basic audio setups, this system offers crystal-clear sound and deep bass that rivals much higher-end models.

The Kia Syros is a no-nonsense, practical offering from the Korean brand, blending unconventional design with impressive functionality. Despite its subjective styling, it’s hard to find fault with this sub 4 meter compact SUV. The cabin of the Syros offers ample space for five adults, complemented by a generous boot and a comfortable ride. Its extensive feature list includes segment-first innovations such as ventilated rear seats. Two robust engine options power the Syros—while not the most fuel-efficient, they deliver solid performance. Kia’s premium brand presence and excellent after-sales service add to its appeal. For those seeking a spacious and well-rounded compact SUV, the Syros could be the ideal choice.

Pros & Cons of KIA Syros

• What we admire in this car

  • Boasts a boxy and unique exterior, making it one of the most stylish compact SUVs in its segment.

  • Big boot space of up to 465 litres

• What could have been better

  • The carmaker is not offering any naturally aspirated engine with the Syros. The availability of an NA engine can make the model more affordable.
  • The turbocharged petrol variants may not be as fuel-efficient as naturally aspirated engines.
  • Whereas the design part is unique and stylish for many, Syros’s design may look polarising to some who are inclined toward conventional aesthetics.
  • Not a driver’s car, the Syros offers decent ride quality but it is not meant for dynamism and enthusiastic driving
  • The suspension is on the softer side which can be a concern for some peopl
  • The placement of the headlamps could have been better, they are prone to get scratched easily

KIA Syros Detailed Review

It looks like a smaller EV9 and it will stand out on Indian roads. 9

• The Syros is the first car under the new Kia 2.0 programme, and as such it receives futuristic styling and other elements inspired by the bigger cars in its lineup.
• The nose is blanked out, similar to an EV, but it gets an actual grille lower down. The front bumper gets a chrome skid plate as well.
• The headlamps are vertically-stacked LED units, with DRLs placed on the side. This setup looks similar to what we have seen on the Carnival.
• The side profile is probably the most futuristic angle of the car, featuring a unique B-pillar treatment, flush-fitting door handles, and 17-inch crystal-cut alloy wheels.
• The rear also has plenty of traces of the EV9, featuring L-shaped sleek LED tail lights, flared arches, and a silver skid plate treatment on the bumper.

The futuristic treatment continues on the inside as well, aligning with the new design language. 9

• The Syros’ dashboard is a major step up from the Sonet, featuring a 30-inch tri-screen setup, blending the instrument cluster, infotainment, and the climate control screen.
• Fortunately, not everything is controlled via touch screens, as the Syros retains buttons for the air-con and other various functions.
• The new two-spoke steering wheel draws heavy inspiration from the EV9. That, along with the unique centre console treatment play an important part in the futuristic look and feel of this cabin.
• The Syros is the only car in its segment to feature a ventilated rear bench, which also slides and reclines.
