NCAP 5★

The Syros is a dependable compact SUV that prioritizes passenger protection with a 5-star NCAP rating and strong safety features, backed by comfortable interiors with ventilated seats and a sunroof. However, its 118 bhp engine feels restrained for the segment, and efficiency numbers don't inspire—you're trading some performance punch for everyday practicality rather than getting a standout value proposition.

Stands out

  • 5-star NCAP safety rating with 6 airbags provides genuine peace of mind
  • Ventilated seats and sunroof elevate comfort in its price bracket
  • Dual fuel option adds flexibility to fueling choices
  • Decent ground clearance and 465L boot for practical daily duties
  • Competent feature set with 6 tech inclusions

!Gives us pause

  • 118 bhp feels underpowered for highway driving and load scenarios
  • Fuel efficiency of 17.65 kmpl is modest—not class-leading by any means
  • No ADAS features, a noticeable gap versus newer rivals
  • Restricted cargo space limits genuine family road trips
