What the HTX Diesel AT costs on the road
The price above is ex-showroom. With road tax, registration and the rest of the charges counted in, the HTX Diesel AT comes to ₹15,55,620 on the road in Itanagar and ₹17,91,813 in Bengaluru.
Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so where you register decides ₹2,36,193 of what you pay for the identical car. Of the 25 states we can price this variant in, Arunachal Pradesh comes out lowest and Karnataka highest. You pay it where you live, so take this as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as a way to save money.
Comprehensive own-damage cover is on top of both figures: it has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer, the cover value and your no-claim bonus, so no honest single number exists for it. Budget for it from real quotes.

The full story
At ₹14.82L ex-showroom this is the 15th of 17 Syros variants by price, ₹80,000 above the HTX Turbo Petrol AT. The same HTX features start at ₹80,000 less as the HTX Turbo Petrol AT; the extra here buys the Diesel with the 6-speed torque-converter auto. Stepping up to HTX (O) from here starts at ₹18,000 more and buys connected car tech and tri-screen cabin layout among 6 additions. That price is a different engine or gearbox though: keeping the Diesel with the 6-speed torque-converter auto, the HTX (O) starts at ₹15.82L.

Kia Syros HTX: the questions people ask
Price, on-road total, engine and what this trim goes without.
- What is the price of the Kia Syros HTX Diesel AT?
- ₹14.82L, ex-showroom. That makes it 15th of 17 by price, ₹80,000 above the HTX Turbo Petrol AT.
- What is the on-road price of the Kia Syros HTX Diesel AT?
- Expect ₹15,55,620 in Itanagar and ₹17,91,813 in Bengaluru. Road tax is set by the state rather than by the maker, so the identical car costs ₹2,36,193 more at one end of the country than the other. That is the ex-showroom price plus road tax, registration and the rest of the charges, across the 25 states we have verified. It does not include comprehensive own-damage cover, which every insurer prices differently.
- Which engine and gearbox does the Kia Syros HTX Diesel AT have?
- The Diesel, 116 PS, with the 6-speed torque-converter auto. The maker's figure for it is 17.7 km/l.
- What features does the Kia Syros HTX Diesel AT get?
- The features worth naming on this trim: All-wheel disc brakes, Premium sound system (Harman Kardon), Ventilated front seats, Powered driver seat (4-way), Drive modes and Terrain modes.
- What does the Kia Syros HTX Diesel AT miss out on?
- The HTX (O) above it adds connected car tech, tri-screen cabin layout, auto climate (single zone), rear ventilated seats and 2 more, for ₹18,000 more. That is the cheapest way into the HTX (O) though, on a different engine or gearbox: keeping this one, it is ₹1.00L more.
- Is the HTX the right Syros to buy?
- That depends on where the value sits across the whole range rather than on this trim alone, and we work it out variant by variant on our Kia Syros which-variant page. The short answer: pay for a step only where the features it adds are ones you would actually use.
