New things added to the Hyundai Aura facelift
Compared to the old model, the new Aura will have a lot of new features. It now comes standard with four airbags, ABS, and EBD. Six airbags, ESC, and hill hold assist can be added as options. Also, the Aura’s head restraints in the back are now adjustable, and the front row’s footwells are now lit up. The instrument cluster has also been changed. It now has two analogue gauges for the speedometer and tachometer and a new 3.5-inch multi-information display (MID) with a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS).
Hyundai has replaced the Vintage Brown colour option with the Starry Night colour, which can be found on the Verna, i20, Alcazar, and Tucson. The Aura still has an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, rear AC vents, automatic climate control, and a wireless charger.
Hyundai Aura’s new look: engines
The Aura still has the same 1.2-liter gasoline engine that makes 83hp and 113.8Nm of torque. A CNG kit is also added to this engine, which gives it 69hp and 95.2Nm of torque. Both have a 5-speed manual transmission, but the petrol model also has the option of an AMT transmission. For now, the facelift doesn’t have the 1.0-liter turbo-petrol engine that makes 100hp and 172Nm of torque.
