Is the ground clearance of the Kia Syros a deal breaker on Indian roads?

For city use, ground clearance is overrated. Such clearance is not really needed on most urban roads. For its target audience, the Syros should be fine.

Are you kidding? India requires ground clearance. With one bad road or big speed breaker, you’re scraping the bottom. It's a deal-breaker for me.

Until the official specs come out, I think we should wait to judge. Kia is not stupid, they know the Indian market. It will be competitive clearance, I bet.

It may even be a bit lower, but if it works, the practicality might be worth it. I prefer more interior space and being a little more careful over speed bumps.

It depends on where you live. It’s probably fine for metro cities. Higher clearance is a must though, but for tier 2 or 3 cities, or anyone who travels between cities often.

Most people who buy these cars never leave the city, let’s be real. Probably more than enough ground clearance for the target audience.

I believe it's more about the idea of safety and ruggedness that goes with having higher ground clearance. If it's too low, even though practically it's sufficient, Kia might have a hard time selling it.
Will the Kia Syros's distinctive design stand the test of time or become unfashionable fast?
06 January 2025 07:32
I think it'll age well. There’s something about a boxy design that seems to make it a classic. Look at the Suzuki Jimny or the old Land Rover Defender. Form over function often doesn't make it past the history books.

It already looks outdated, there is no way. In a few years it will be a sore thumb next to sleeker designs. This is a big, big risk for Kia.

I hope that it becomes a cult classic. Cars that are practical tend to be followed by a devoted following. Fan appeal could make it the next Skoda Yeti.

I think it'll age okay but not great. Some of the details will probably look dated pretty quickly, but the overall shape will probably hold up. To keep it fresh, Kia might have to feed it frequent updates.

It's going to be polarizing for a while. Some people will always call it ugly, some will love it for being different. It's not a bad thing, at least not boring!

I have a feeling that it will grow on people. Can you remember how odd the Kia Soul looked when it was first released? It now has a strong following. The Syros could take the same route.

It will probably age better than we will. With EVs becoming more common, and boxy designs more acceptable for its efficiency, the Syros might be ahead of its time.
Do the Kia Syros' sliding rear seats actually make sense, or are they just a gimmick?
06 January 2025 07:32
They're definitely useful. Having kids, the ability to adjust the space between car seats and cargo is a huge plus. It's sort of the mini-van feature in a compact car.

Seems like a gimmick to me. How often will you actually be adjusting those seats? And it's just one more thing that can break down the line.

It’s genuinely innovative for this segment, I think. It gives that extra flexibility that you normally only get in much bigger cars. It’s a game changer for small families or folks who occasionally need to carry around larger items.

It’s useful, but I wonder about long term durability. With time, sliding mechanisms can wear out. I’d like to see how they hold up after a few years of use.

It seems to me that it would be really handy for road trips. For long drives, adjust for more leg room, and then slide forward for more luggage space when you arrive. It's not revolutionary, but I like it.

It's solving a problem that doesn't really exist. People set their seat and forget about it. I prefer to have more total space than adjustable space.
