Preparing to launch the Aura sedan, Hyundai also has big plans for the new year and remains confident despite the slump in the Indian auto industry over the past several months. One of the biggest launches from the company, however, could be the 2020 Creta which has the potential of snatching back the initiative from newer players like Kia Seltos and MG Hector.
