New Delhi. Kia Syros EV has started testing before launch in India in 2026. Dual charging ports, new wheels and 355 km range have been revealed in the spy image. In India, this car will compete with popular cars like Nexon EV and MG Windsor.

Spy image surfaced
The upcoming Kia Syros EV has officially entered its testing phase, which is going to be launched in India in 2026. The first spy image of this electric compact SUV has come from Korea. It was seen at the Public DC Fast Charging Station with Heavy Camoflad, which had a charging port on front fenders. Interestingly, it will have dual charging ports, which will be placed on both sides of the front fendrs, as we have seen in Clavis EV.

Arrow-optimized alloy wheels

The latest spy image includes arrow-optimized alloy wheels, neon color brake calipers (such as GT models in Kia in Korea) and disc brakes on both ends. The overall silhouette and design of the Syros Ev looks like its ice-powered variant. Design elements such as LED headlamps, LED DRLs and LED tail lamps, flush-fitting door handles and shark fin antenna will be taken from its Ice version.

Cabin layout and features
The cabin layout and features of the Kia Syros Ev are expected to be like the Ice-powered variant. However, EV is likely to get EV-specific software for the instrument cluster. The KIA can also offer trims and upholstery options for electric models.

Battery pack and range

According to reports, the upcoming Kia Syros Ev will borrow 42kwh and 49kwh battery packs from Hyundai Instar Ev sold at global level. Both batteries use nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) sales. The small battery pack offers a range of 300 km, while the big battery pack promises a range of up to 355 km on full charge.

approximate price
Ice-Powered Kia Syros is currently available in the price range of Rs 9.50 lakh-Rs 17.80 lakh (ex-showroom). The electric version of the SUV is expected to come at a price of about Rs 14 lakh for the base variant and about Rs 20 lakh for the top-end variants. After launching, Syros Ev will compete with Tata Nexon Ev, Mahindra XUV400 EV and upcoming Maruti Fronx EV.

It has a slightly changed bumper, in which the charging port is now located on the nose of MPV. There is also a new Ice-cubbed LED fog lamps and a new silver trim on the lower bumper.

Interior

Inside, the dashboard design is also similar to ordinary carens. However, due to this being an EV, the Center Console area is designed with a new floating design, providing additional storage space. KIA has used different colors for upholstery, and it is especially available in 7-seater gauges.

Combat with byd
