Design of the Kia Syros EV
The Kia Syros EV carries forward the bold styling of its ICE sibling but adds several EV-specific design elements to give it a cleaner and more futuristic look.
The front fascia features a closed-off grille, sleek LED DRLs and vertically stacked LED headlamps, while the redesigned bumper improves its modern appearance.
At the sides, the SUV gets newly designed aerodynamic alloy wheels and subtle EV badging. The rear continues with connected LED tail lamps and a sculpted tailgate, giving the Syros EV a premium road presence. Overall, Kia has retained the SUV’s boxy proportions while adding distinctive touches that clearly set the electric version apart.
The Kia Syros EV measures 3,995mm in length, 1,800mm in width and 1,665mm in height, while its 2,550mm wheelbase promises a spacious cabin. The electric SUV also offers 190mm of ground clearance, making it well-suited for Indian road conditions and everyday urban as well as highway driving.
Powertrain, Range and Charging
The Kia Syros EV is available with two battery pack options. The 43.5kWh battery delivers a claimed range of 404km, while the larger 54.2kWh battery offers up to 526km on a single charge (MIDC).
The electric motor produces up to 171hp, allowing the SUV to accelerate from 0-100km/h in 8.1 seconds, with a top speed of 170km/h.
Using a 100kW DC fast charger, the battery can be charged from 10% to 80% in just 39 minutes. Kia also offers an 11kW AC home charger, which takes around 4 to 5 hours, depending on the battery pack.
