Kia India has officially expanded its electric vehicle portfolio with the highly anticipated launch of the Kia Syros EV. Priced at an attractive starting point of ₹13.49 lakh, this new electric SUV marks Kia's second major push into the country's mass-market electric car segment, following the footsteps of its successful EV line-up.
Power, range, and battery performance
The Kia Syros EV is available in two distinct battery pack options to cater to different driving needs: a 42 kWh version and a larger 51.4 kWh variant. Designed for both daily city commutes and longer highway journeys, the 42 kWh battery delivers a driving range of 443 km, while the premium 51.4 kWh battery offers an impressive range of up to 526 km on a single charge. Powered by a single electric motor generating 169 BHP, the SUV can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in a swift 8.1 seconds.
Fast charging and innovative ownership packages
To tackle range anxiety, the Kia Syros EV supports 100 kW DC fast charging, allowing the battery to juice up from 10% to 80% in just 39 minutes. For standard charging, it comes equipped with a 10.8 kW onboard AC charger. Additionally, Kia is introducing several industry-first ownership perks to build customer confidence. These include a lifetime battery warranty (valid for 15 years or unlimited kilometres) for the first owner, a 3-year assured buyback programme offering up to 80% of the resale value, and an innovative Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) option.
Futuristic cabin and advanced safety features
Inside the cabin, the Syros EV is a tech-lover's dream. The dashboard is dominated by a massive 30-inch panoramic display, which seamlessly integrates a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and a dedicated 5-inch climate control interface. Other premium features include a dual-pane panoramic sunroof, customisable ambient lighting, a 4-way power driver's seat, and highly flexible sliding and reclining rear seats. On the safety front, the SUV comes packed with a 360-degree camera, an integrated dashcam, and a comprehensive suite of Level 2 Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS).
