The Hyundai Aura sedan will come with three engine options and 12 variants. First up, will be a BS6-compliant 1.2-litre petrol engine that’s good for 83hp and 113Nm of torque, mated to either a 5-speed manual or an AMT gearbox. Then there will be a CNG version too.  Additionally, the Aura will also get a 100hp 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine that will be available with a sole 5-speed manual. As far as diesel goes, Hyundai will introduce a 1.2-litre powerplant that will deliver 75hp and 190Nm of torque, and will be paired to a 5-speed manual and an AMT gearbox.
