**New Delhi, [Date of Publication]** – Kia Motors has officially launched its all-new Syros SUV in the Indian market. While pricing details remain undisclosed, bookings will commence on January 3rd, 2025, with deliveries starting in February 2025.
The Syros is available in six trims: HTK, HTK (O), HTK+, HTX, HTX+, and HTX+ (O), each offering a range of features catering to diverse customer needs.
**Engine and Gearbox Options:**
The Syros offers a choice of two engines: a 1.0-liter petrol engine generating 120hp and 172Nm of torque, and a 1.5-liter diesel engine producing 116hp and 250Nm of torque. Both engines come standard with a 6-speed manual transmission. However, higher trims offer automatic transmission options: a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic (DCT) is available for the petrol engine from the HTK+ trim upwards, while a 6-speed torque converter automatic (6AT) is offered for the diesel engine in the HTX+ and HTX+(O) trims.
**Trim-wise Feature Breakdown:**
The feature set varies significantly across trims. The base HTK model offers essential features such as a 12.3-inch touchscreen, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and basic safety features. Higher trims progressively add features like sunroof, alloy wheels, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) in the top-end model, ventilated seats, premium sound systems (Harman Kardon), and advanced safety technologies. Detailed specifications for each trim are available on Kia’s website.
**Safety:**
Kia assures that all Syros variants come standard with six airbags, Electronic Stability Control (ESC), and Vehicle Stability Management (VSM).
The Kia Syros aims to compete in a rapidly growing segment of the Indian SUV market. With its diverse trim options and feature set, Kia is clearly targeting a broad range of buyers. The final pricing will be crucial in determining its success in this competitive landscape.
