Hyundai Motors has silently updated the features and price list of its Aura sub-4-meter sedan. The carmaker has introduced a factory-fitted rear spoiler for all variants except for the base-spec E trim. Besides this, the brand has also removed some features as well.
The Arkamys premium sound system that was offered in range-topping SX and SX(O) trims has been removed. However, Hyundai is yet to confirm if a substitution is on the cards. The brand has also introduced 15-inch steel wheels on the second-to-base S manual variant of the Aura while its AMT version gets machine-finished wheels. Further, the entry-level E trim gets a downsized 13-inch spare wheel against the older 14-inch unit. With this, Hyundai has also increased its prices.
