Kia India Plans Launch of Syros Electric SUV and Sorento Hybrid Models
Kia India is set to expand its electrified vehicle lineup with the upcoming launch of the Syros EV, a compact electric SUV expected around August, and the Sorento Hybrid, a flagship hybrid SUV. The Syros EV retains the boxy design of its petrol counterpart with EV-specific features like aerodynamic wheels and a charging port, targeting mass-market competitors. The Sorento Hybrid, seen testing, will be positioned above the Seltos as Kia's premium hybrid offering. Both models include advanced driver assistance systems and premium interiors.
