    Recent teasers of the Kia Syros suggest that it will feature a boxy shape inspired by the Kia Carnival and Kia EV9. The design sketches suggest large window panels, a kinked beltline near the C-pillar, squared out wheel arches, a prominent shoulder line and flush door handles. At the front, the teasers reveal vertically stacked 3-pod LED headlights and LED DRLs, while the outside rearview mirrors (ORVMs) seem to incorporate turn indicators. It will also have sleek L-shaped tail lights, elongated roof rails, and a flat tailgate, completing the boxy aesthetic.
