Kia Syros — Price, Variants & Specs (2026)
The Kia Syros is priced between ₹9.00 Lakh – ₹17.80 Lakh (ex-showroom, July 2026) across 6 key variants. The HTX 1.0 Turbo DCT variant costs about ₹15,54,500 on-road in Delhi.
Launched in early 2025, the Kia Syros slots between the Sonet and Seltos with boxy, EV3-inspired styling and a surprisingly premium cabin. It brings big-car features to the sub-4-metre class, including a panoramic sunroof, Level 2 ADAS and segment-first reclining-and-sliding rear seats with ventilation. A 5-star Bharat NCAP rating strengthens its case against the Tata Nexon, Maruti Brezza and its own sibling, the Sonet.
