The Kia Syros Starts At 8.99 Lakhs

Compared to its rather cramped cousin, Exter, the Syros is about 2.8 lakhs more expensive, but you do get a lot more space for occupants, premium materials, and more powerful engine options.

Like a 1.0L turbocharged petrol engine producing 118 bhp and 172 Nm of torque, mated to a 6-speed manual or 7-speed DCT and a 1.5L turbocharged diesel engine producing 116 bhp and 250 Nm, available with either a 6-speed manual or 6-speed torque converter automatic

 All prices are Ex-Showroom, add up to 1 lakh more for RTO and Insurance.

HTK (Base Variant)-Rs. 8,99,900

As usual, the base model has all the bells and whistles a buyer like me and perhaps you would ever need. Most notably reverse camera and Type C port, Wireless Android Auto/Carplay along with an adequate 4 speaker setup. One big caveat to keep in mind here is that there is no automatic option here

HTX Plus-Rs. 15,99,900

I hate drum brakes they get squeaky after just a splash of water and are pretty much useless after a couple of spirited tops, the HTX plus variants solve this by giving discs all around. From here onwards the diesel and petrol automatics come into play as well, the manual is not available. 

• 17-inch alloy wheels, puddle lamps, aluminum pedals, 64-shade ambient lighting, Harman Kardon sound system, air purifier, dashcam, and ventilated rear seats.
