Our verdict on the Aura

The Aura is a sensible, unflashy small sedan. Every variant has six airbags and stability control, the 1.2 petrol is smooth in town, and the factory CNG is a genuine money-saver for people who drive a lot. Where it falls short is the engine's modest output on the highway, the AMT being limited to two trims, and a cabin that is starting to feel dated next to the newer Honda Amaze and Maruti Dzire. The Dzire in particular offers a sunroof, a 5-star Global NCAP rating and better claimed economy at similar money. We would buy the Aura if a Hyundai dealer is close, you want CNG with a usable boot, or you can get a good discount. Otherwise, put the Dzire on the same test drive list.

Good things

Six airbags and stability control as standard across the range
Factory-fitted CNG available from the cheapest trim
Smooth, quiet 1.2 petrol that suits city driving
Rear camera, touchscreen and climate control at a sensible SX price

Could be better

83 PS feels stretched with a full load on the highway, and CNG drops it to 69 PS
AMT only on two trims, and no automatic with CNG
Cabin and equipment look dated next to the latest Dzire and Amaze
Claimed petrol economy of 17 km/l is lower than key rivals

Hyundai Aura: safe basics, sensible prices

The Aura is Hyundai's sedan under four metres, based on the Grand i10 Nios hatchback and sold as a five-seater. It uses a 1.2-litre petrol with 83 PS and a five-speed manual or AMT, and a factory-fitted CNG version that drops output to 69 PS. Prices run from ₹6 lakh for the base E to about ₹8.67 lakh for the SX CNG, ex-showroom.

Safety basics are covered across the range. Every Aura has six airbags and electronic stability control, which was not true of this class a few years ago. The useful features arrive at the SX: an 8-inch touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a rear camera, push-button start, automatic climate control and alloy wheels. The SX(O) adds wireless phone mirroring and cruise control.

The line-up is longer than it needs to be, with a Corporate trim and three fuel and gearbox mixes. Make the fuel decision first, then pick the trim. If you run more than about 1,500 km a month, the CNG starts to make financial sense; otherwise the petrol manual is simpler and keeps the full boot. Ask for the exact list price, as sources differ by a few thousand rupees.

Which variant should you buy?

For petrol buyers, the SX manual is where the car feels complete: touchscreen with phone mirroring, rear camera, climate control and alloys. The SX(O) is worth it only if you want wireless connectivity and cruise control. For a CNG, the S CNG keeps the price down, and the SX CNG adds the same comforts as the petrol SX.

Petrol or CNG?

CNG costs about ₹90,000 more trim for trim and gives up some power and boot space to the cylinder. It pays back if you drive a lot, especially in cities with a good CNG pump network. If your monthly running is low, or you often travel loaded on highways, stay with petrol.

Manual or automatic?

The AMT is offered on the S and the SX Plus only, and there is no automatic with CNG. The AMT adds about ₹41,000 on the S. It is smooth enough in traffic, but expect a slight pause between shifts when you want to overtake.

How does it compare with the Maruti Dzire?

The Dzire has a newer cabin, a sunroof on higher trims, a 5-star Global NCAP rating and much better claimed economy. Both have six airbags as standard. The Aura's case rests on its smooth engine, a slightly lower starting price and the discounts Hyundai dealers often give. Drive both, and let the final ex-showroom offer decide.
