Transmission options on the model are likely to include a five-speed manual gearbox and an AMT unit.

With recent sightings of the Hyundai Aura compact sedan, we already know a few details. The Hyundai Aura will feature a fascia similar to the Grand i10 Nios, including the signature cascading grille design with integrated boomerang-shaped DRLs on either side, projector headlamps, new bumper and fog lights with triangular housings. At the rear, the model features LED tail lights and refreshed bumper that houses the number plate recess. Also on offer could be new alloy wheels.
