BHPian highwaypatrol recently shared this with other enthusiasts:Why The Syros?For the past four years, my wife and I shared countless memories in our trusty 2021 Diesel AT 4×4 Thar. That SUV wasn’t just a vehicle-it was a companion. The towering driving position, the way it made bad roads in Bangalore feel almost nonexistent, the weekends filled with off-road adventures, and the unmistakable presence it carried on the streets-all of it made the Thar truly special to us. Every drive felt like an occasion. But life has a way of steering us in new directions. When we discovered that my wife was expecting, our priorities shifted almost overnight. Somewhere between excitement and responsibility, we realized that the Thar-fun as it was-just didn’t fit into this new chapter. What we needed was comfort, space, practicality, and something equipped with all the modern touches that make life easier with a growing family. And so began the search. We found ourselves at the Kia showroom, exploring every option within our budget. The Seltos caught our attention with its balanced package, and the Sonet impressed in its own way. But it was the Syros that stopped me in my tracks. The moment I slid into the driver’s seat of the Syros, it all felt familiar. Coming from years of driving the Thar, I’ve grown used to a high, commanding driving position-and the Syros delivered that effortlessly. The drive was peppy and smooth, the features felt endless, and the cabin had that sense of space and elevation I craved. In just one test drive, the decision was made. It wasn’t just practical-it still spoke to the driving enthusiast in me. Without hesitation, we booked it then and there. Walking out of the showroom that day, there was a mix of relief and excitement. Relief that we’d found the right balance of comfort and practicality, and excitement for all the new journeys waiting to unfold with our Syros. Now, as I eagerly wait for delivery day, I can’t help but feel like this is the start of another long and memorable journey-one that will carry not just the two of us anymore, but our family. The Thar chapter was about adventure. The Syros chapter will be about life, growth, and new beginnings. And I can’t wait to share more in my detailed ownership story soon.
