Kia Syros spy shots: interior design

The latest spy shots reveal that the Syros will feature a brand-new two-spoke flat-bottom steering wheel. This design hasn’t been seen on any Kia car in India, but it looks inspired by the K4 sedan that made its global debut earlier this year, along with other recent Kia models abroad. It will also feature an offset Kia emblem.

The interior shot also reveals dual displays, similar to those offered in the Seltos. It is likely to include a 10.25-inch touchscreen, paired with a 10.25-inch digital driver’s display. Additionally, the car also gets a few physical buttons below the touchscreen, including a scroll wheel to adjust the volume.

Kia Syros: features, powertrains

Previous spy shots have confirmed that the Syros will get a panoramic sunroof, roof rails, and all-LED lighting along with vertically positioned LED DRLs. It will also likely be equipped with diamond-cut alloy wheels, ventilated and powered front seats, drive modes, traction modes, a climate control system, leatherette upholstery, and a Bose audio system, among other kits.

As we’ve reported earlier, the Syros will have both petrol and electric powertrains, with the electric version expected to join the line-up about six months after the ICE. Both versions will be underpinned by the same platform, and a hybrid version may be introduced later. However, all versions will be front-wheel drive only.

Kia Syros: launch, expected price

The Kia Syros petrol will make its debut towards the end of this year, and it will go on sale early next year. Its EV is expected to launch by mid-2025. Expect a slight premium over the Sonet, which is currently priced from Rs 8 lakh (ex-showroom) onwards.
