Hyundai Aura Compact Sedan Launched

[gaddambhargavareddy]

The second-gen Hyundai Xcent has recently been spotted testing fort the first time. Although the sub-4m sedan was heavily camouflaged, it gave us a fair idea of how the new-gen sedan will look.
Upfront, the new Xcent looks similar to the next-gen i20 and the new Sonata. It gets an updated iteration of Hyundai’s cascading grille with honeycomb finish. The new bumper features triangular housing for fog lamps, which appears to be projector units. The headlamps on the new Xcent look largely similar to the units seen on the current model. However, it might get projector units this time around. At the back, the 2020 Xcent features new tail lamps with LED inserts and also the number plate has now been moved to the bumper.

Hyundai Xcent successor spied in India, to be launched in 2020

The Hyundai Xcent successor will be a three-box version of the Hyundai Grand i10 Nios. The spy shots seen here suggest that it will have a front-end very similar to that of this hatchback. Its main differentiator at the front will be the honeycomb pattern of the Cascading grille.
On the sides, the all-new sedan’s greenhouse will be in the same sportier shape as that of the hatchback, although some might find the old sedan’s simplistic avatar better-suited because of the restricted dimensions. At the rear, there will be a newly designed boot lid in a cleaner form, thanks to the license plate indentation having been repositioned to the bumper. The new combination lamps will be edgier and include LED tail lights reminiscent of the Audi A4.
The interior design and equipment of the Hyundai Xcent successor will be mostly the same as that of the Hyundai Grand i10 Nios. There may be some additional features inside the sedan, though, such as a rear armrest for instance. The colour-coding may also be different, more on the elegant side.
Hyundai will sell the Xcent successor with the BS-VI 1.2L Kappa petrol engine and the BS-VI U2 1.2L diesel engine of the Grand i10 Nios. Reportedly, the petrol engine and the diesel engine will come in the tuning of 81 BHP/114 Nm and 74 BHP/190 Nm. Transmission choices will be 5-speed manual and 5-speed automated manual. The latter will be available even with the diesel engine.

The Hyundai Xcent will continue being produced alongside its successor. However, it will be produced only for commercial sales then.

Hyundai Motor India has released the first official sketches of the Aura subcompact sedan, ahead of its public debut on December 19, 2019. The all-new Hyundai Aura will step in place of the Xcent in the company's line-up and the sketches reveal the Grand i10 Nios connection with the new model.

Not the best looking, but will sell well if priced well. Tigor is still the best looking.

 

[vikyjoshi]

Hyundai Brand, interiors will sell this vehicle. Personally I did not like this at design at all, even the alloys are highly noisy design. For me the best designed sub 4m car remains the Tigor.

 

[Knightrider]

Did not have high hopes looking at the sketches because the camouflaged test mule had different structure. But the final design is even worse than expected.

 

[ccprakash]

yes.. Design is bad when compared to tigor, but it will sell..

Hyundai Aura interior details surface before launch

After the exterior and powertrain of the Hyundai Aura were officially revealed a month ago, a few more details have trickled out. When bookings for Hyundai’s new-gen compact sedan began on Jan 3 – for an amount of Rs 10,000 – the Aura’s variants were also revealed. Now, images of the interior have surfaced, providing new details on the equipment that the Aura will come with, and an idea of how spacious it is at the front and rear.

The model in these images seems to be the top-spec Aura SX(O) as it is equipped with the 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a 5.3-inch part-digital instrument cluster and cruise control, along with an automatic climate control system, wireless charging, rear AC vents, the four-speaker Arkamys sound system and keyless entry and go. Except for the addition of cruise control and the bronze finish on the dashboard, those familiar with the Grand i10 Nios will feel right at home.

Rear legroom and headroom also seems to be nearly identical to the Grand i10 Nios – our road test of the Nios hatchback showed that legroom and headroom are generous, even for six-footers; though seating three abreast in the rear will be a bit of a squeeze.
