1.0L Turbo Petrol Engine No Longer Available With Nios And Aura

The Grand i10 Nios and Aura were the only offerings in their respective segments to offer a turbo petrol engine. However, it seems that the turbo petrol engines in the Nios and Aura didn’t contribute enough in sales to serve another stint. Hence, Hyundai have pulled the plug on the turbo petrol engine options for both Nios hatchback and Aura sedan.

Hyundai offered this engine with a sole 5-speed manual transmission whereas in other models, it comes with a 6-speed manual, 6-speed auto-clutch manual and 7-speed dual-clutch transmission options as well. This engine will continue to serve in the Venue and Verna, complying with the upcoming BS6 Phase-II emission norms.
