There is no turbo-petrol or diesel mill on offer and the naturally-aspirated petrol engine develops 82bhp and 114Nm of torque. The transmission options include a five-speed manual and an AMT unit. The Aura’s petrol engine is BS6 Phase 2-compliant and is also available in a CNG variant. We have driven the petrol guise with a manual gearbox combination.

The Aura currently demands a waiting period that ranges between six to eight weeks depending on the variant you choose. The CNG version has a longer wait as compared to the petrol variants.
