Planning To Buy A Used Hyundai Aura? Here Are Some Pros And Cons

The Hyundai Aura was launched in 2020 as a generation upgrade for the Xcent subcompact sedan. While the company still sells the latter for the taxi fleet segment, the Aura is targeted toward private car buyers. While you can get a brand-new Hyundai Aura at a decent price, in case you are on a tighter budget, you can consider going for a used Hyundai Aura subcompact sedan. However, before you start looking for one, here are some pros and cons you must consider prior to buying a used Hyundai Aura.

The Hyundai Aura is a well-built car and comes with a nice fit and finish.

Pros

1. The Hyundai Aura is a well-built car and comes with a nice fit and finish. While looks are subjective, you do get premium exterior features like LED DRLs, sporty alloys and LED taillamps, depending on the variant you get.
2. The Aura gets a well-designed cabin as well. Be it fit and finish or the quality of the materials, the interior is quite premium. And depending on the variant you get, the car also comes with features like a touchscreen infotainment system, Apple CarPlay & Android Auto, an auto air-con system and more.
3. The Hyundai Aura come with a 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine that is quite fun-to-drive, so if you do come across one, we’d suggest going for that one.
4. However, if you are looking for a more efficient car, the Aura also comes with a pair of 1.2-litre petrol and diesel engines, both offered with the option of a 5-speed manual and an optional AMT transmission. Hyundai also offers a CNG option with the former.

Cons

1. The Hyundai Aura is relatively new, which means you are likely to find very few options in the used car space. And even the exciting ones won’t come cheap. Chances of getting one under Rs. 7 lakh would be very difficult.
2. Unless you are getting the CNG variant, the Hyundai Aura is not the most fuel-efficient model in its class. So if that’s your priority, then you should look for something else.
