[@vikall]

great analysis 👍, its a car to be driven around, back seat features are truly segment above.

[@DriveShrive]

Yes, rear seat is main priority here

[@KapilSharma-wf6dl]

I am an automobile enthusiast and a technically sound person. Kia has thoughtfully analyzed its buyers' needs and whether those needs are commercially viable for a company like Kia. I can see this gaining traction in terms of sales and customer satisfaction. The looks are subjective, but this is still not as bad as, or I must say as bad as, Maruti Espresso and related useless stuff. It offers several unique first-in-class features for such a category that till this point were only available in cars with 40 lakh and above price category; such as back seat multi reclining feature, air conditioning in the back seat though available in top trim, and the most classy feature that I liked is the 30-inch screen along with the steering column. In a way, they have tried to hit the bullseye in terms of the product line with long-term viability along with the pricing, as India is still a price-conscious market. The only change is that people now want more relevant and purposeful aesthetics as opposed to the anything-will-go mindset of the past. I can see this product gaining traction, and it would prove to be a turning point from the manufacturer's perspective. Having said that pricing still plays quite a pivotal role in its long-term viability and success.

[@DriveShrive]

Pricing isnt out yet but Kia went overboard with the looks, unlike tier 1 country buyer, Indians are still drawn to aesthetically handsome designs like Seltos and Sonet more than the quirky ones.

[@KapilSharma-wf6dl]

@ Sure; rightly said. But given the work that Kia has done with reference to the technology for this segment can prove to be a turnaround for this segment from peers perspective as this is just a glimpse of what’s coming up next from Kia’s product line. Of late people really consider interior aesthetics more than exterior. For example Creta from Hyundai, to me, is more of a hype than utility that commands such a hefty price tag.. isn’t it

[@DriveShrive]

Nops, Creta has proved itself in many parameters, it’s a true jack of all trades which gives incredible resale value. But i agree, Once a family sit inside the Syros, they will be sold immediately. Interiors are incredible for this segment. People dont know Kia has similar interiors in a 1cr car

[@satishkumarsharma779]

Hyundai Venue S(O) 1.2 MT on road 11.99 Lacs, by removing extended warranty, accessories, shield of trust it will be 11.71 on top of this showroom is offering me 10.70 L final deal. Person said of you book in next 3 days on table we will give best price below 10.70L. I'm not sure why 1 Lac discount upfront although I'm not exchanging. Suggest me what should be the reason so that it will be easier to negotiate further. Kia Sonet HTK 1.2 MT offering 10.74L on-road. On this price they are offering 25k discount only.

[@DrMS96]

Nice analysis 👍🏼 please drive it when it's available don't make us wait till it's ownership review. I booked XUV 3xO AX7L last week but thank god didn't went ahead, now I ll cancel & book Syros's top model Diesel AT. I hated 3 cylinder vibration in 3XO plus was concerned that I needed to get 91 Octane petrol for it that's why I was inclined towards Diesel automatic. I also test drove Tata Curvv Diesel DCA but hated NVH of it & it's front seat comfort is horrible. I quite liked Hyundai/Kia refined Diesels, heck they are more refined than 3XO's petrol. But their top models were going way out of budget. Radar ADAS for safety + Panoramic Sunroof is must for me as I live in a very beautiful city. I just hope Syros on-road price comes below 18lc 🤞🏼. What will be the Hyundai equivalent of Syros ? What do you think, am I doing the right thing ?? 🤔
