Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Kia Syros
- Rear seat space: a 6’5” tall person can fit behind a 6’ tall driver. Slide and recline function makes it super versatile.
- 390-465-litre boot space: on par with SUVs from one segment above. 60:40 split rear seats on offer too.
- Interior quality, fit, finish is among the best in class.
- Segment best feature set: Panoramic sunroof, L2 ADAS, 360° camera, 30” panoramic display.
- Choice of 1-litre turbo-petrol and 1.5-litre diesel engines. Both available with an automatic.
Maruti Jimny
- Looks quirky with its upright stance, compact dimensions and fun colours
- Spacious for four people
- Ride comfort is well-tuned for city duties despite being a capable off-roader
- Lightweight and amateur-friendly off-roader that'll keep seasoned off-road drivers happy too
- Boot space is usable for suitcases even with all seats up

Kia Syros
- Ride quality is likely to feel slightly bouncy on highways.
- Fuel efficiency of turbo-petrol engine in heavy bumper-to-bumper traffic is known to be poor.
- Design is very unconventional which doesn’t leave a good first impression.
Maruti Jimny
- Lacks cabin practicality like storage spaces and bottle holders
- Engine performance is underwhelming with a full load
