Mastering the Aura: The Ultimate Guide to Buying a Hyundai
This guide will maximize your chances of buying the Hyundai Aura with confidence:
Design of Hyundai Aura
If you're looking for a sophisticated yet bold and sporty vehicle that commands attention wherever you go, you cannot go wrong with the Aura.
Hyundai Aura has a sleek design, starting hot with a stylish radiator grille on the front fascia of the four-wheeler, meticulously crafted diamond-cut alloy wheels, and striking projector headlamps accentuated with a chrome surround.
It is available in 6 stunning colours: Aqua Teal, Fiery Red, Polar White, Starry Night, Titan Grey and Typhoon Silver.
Interiors in Hyundai Aura
The makers of the Hyundai Aura didn't just make the sedan easier on the eye, they also focused on loading it with features that make driving a fun experience — in all scenarios.
From a rear centre armrest and headrest ergonomically designed to prioritise comfort and a rear parcel tray with an integrated cup holder for placing utility items and generous boot space, you'll have it all (and then some!) to make your long journeys worthwhile.
Features of the Hyundai Aura
Hyundai Aura comes in 5 trims, each better than the next.
Here are some standardized features you can expect on all variants:
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) with Electronic brakeforce distribution (EBDch helps the driver maintain stability control of the vehicle even in slippery conditions.
Boomerang-shaped LED DRLs provide the best visibility to reduce the risk of collisions while adding to the overall aesthetics of the car.
Dual airbags, to protect the passengers and drivers in the event of an accident.
Rear parking sensors to detect obstacles and park/manoeuvre your vehicle in tight spaces.
It's pretty sorted for the base model, but if you can afford to, we highly suggest you consider its top variants, such as SX and SX Plus AMT, which come through winning with features such as:
A 5.3-inch digital speedometer, allows you to view your vehicle's speed at a glance.
An 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system, with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support, bringing the world to your fingertips.
Arkamys sound system offers enhanced audio quality to keep you grooving.
Height adjustable seats for improved comfort and visibility.
Rear AC vents for better airflow throughout the vehicle.
Wireless charging, powering your devices without the need for additional cables.
So, when you compare it with the leading cars in the segment, you'll find the Hyundai Aura outruns its competitors by a long shot — and at a much smaller price point.
Power and Performance of Hyundai Aura
The following features are about the Power and Performance of the Hyundai Aura:
Hyundai Aura offers stellar performance with three different engines, while its competitors — Maruti Suzuki Dzire, Honda Amaze, and Tata Tigor only come with one.
Take the 1.2-litre engine, for example, which is the smallest BS6-compliant engine in India. It generates 67.72bhp@6000rpm with the bi-fuel variant, offering a max torque of 95.2Nm@4000rpm. It is available in both: petrol and CNG variants, both come with a 5-speed manual transmission while automatic transmission is only seen in petrol trims.
The other is a 1.0-litre, three-cylinder turbo-petrol engine, only available in high-end variants. They are said to offer a peak torque of 171 Nm @ 1500-4000 rpm. It packs a punch while adhering to stringent emission norms, which is saying something.
If you're looking for something more powerful but in your price range, their diesel variant would be a top choice, as it offers 75hp with 190Nm of torque, making it much more economical.
However, note that this variant has been discontinued due to low demand, so you may have to consider getting a used car if the diesel trim is non-negotiable.

The Hyundai Aura is certainly a good buy, monthly sales equaling 4707 in May alone will tell you that.
