Verdict

The Hyundai Aura is not the most modern or feature-laden compact sedan in the segment, but it is a well-rounded and practical choice. Its strengths are in refinement, ride comfort, and ability to perform in daily use.

The 2023 facelift has improved its safety credentials and revitalised its design just enough to make it relevant. While rivals may have more advanced technology or better brand recall, the Aura continues to deliver on the basics: smooth performance, sensible efficiency, and family-friendly practicality.

Shams sums it up quite nicely in this review: 

“Starting at just Rs. 6 lakh, this is a well-balanced car, and it does the job where needed and suits small families quite well.” 

Pros Cons of Mahindra KUV100

Pros

  • The KUV100 has a small foortprint but offers good space
  • There is good enough bootspace for the occupants' bags
  • Available in both manual and AMT transmissions

Cons

  • The middle seat in the front row is not the best place to be in
  • The engine, though refined, is not the peppiest in the segment
  • Gear changes can be a little cumbersome because of the long travel of the clutch

Verdict

M&M has facelifted its smallest offering, the KUV 100 and given it as many as 40 changes overall. The KUV 100 NXT is an improvement on the car for sure. But it is still far from being the segment best. It's quirky and does attract with its SUV appeal. Mahindra should see some renewed success with the facelifted car - though should start to think about better connectivity interfaces like Apple CarPlay, Android Auto.
