Verdict
Hyundai Aura, after the launch of the 4th generation Dzire, is struggling a lot to attract new customers, as the new Dzire and Amaze have truly changed the landscape of this segment. For instance, getting features like Level 2 ADAS, sunroof, large infotainment screen, and 5-star safety rating is commendable. Sadly, the Aura doesn't have what its rivals have, so Hyundai is shuffling the variant lineup and coming up with exciting discounts. Let's see how this goes with potential customers.
