    Kia Syros stands out with its stunning design and tech-loaded cabin. A standout feature is the ability to slide the rear seat backward, allowing you to utilize the boot space in a unique way. A perfect mix of comfort and innovation!

    From a family view, the Kia Syros looks premium and modern, the cabin has good space and the seats feel comfortable. The features work smoothly, ride quality stays calm on rough roads and mileage is decent for daily travel.

    Not to be biased or anything given the fact that I am considering purchasing it - the Kia Syros. I like that the tech features on offer are usable, it does Not devolve all controls to a touch screen, and the rear passenger seats are amazingly comfortable. It's also maneuverable to a large degree given its sub-4m status, and it makes for a great vehicle that my parents will also like. Would have preferred the DCT petrol engine to make a bit more torque but it's good eNough for city traffic.

    Currently, i love Syros: 1. Space: Perfect for 5 5-member family for comfort. 2. Feature and premium feel, yet less burden on the pocket. 3. Design language is Not flashy yet classy. 4. Great height

    I feel Kia Syros is the best among its competitors (sub compact category and price-feature wise too). Each car has its own charm, and I enjoy it's designs, the technology used.
