2023 Hyundai Aura Facelift

The major update in the 2023 Aura is in the front fascia. In place of the Hyundai Aura's single-piece grille, there is now a thin top section and a wider lower element that houses the LED DRLs and sloping air ducts. To make place for the new black grille, the front bumper underwent a minor renovation, making it appear more aggressive.

Verdict: With the improved safety features and fresh design language, the brand will be able to attract a sizable consumer base despite the growing competition. The primary factor will still be price; if the brand can control it, it will be able to sell a sizable amount of Hyundai's entry-level models.
