While sitting between the Sonet and Seltos, the Syros is expected to be similar in size to the Creta and Seltos but put greater focus on cabin comfort. Kia says that the cabin is ‘designed for the modern, tech-savvy buyer’ and will offer ‘an ultra-spacious environment, complete with industry-first connected features.’   The cabin design remains under wraps for now though we expect it to also share elements with Kia 2.0 models such as the recently launched Carnival and EV9.
