Appearance and characteristics

The Aurus Arsenal minivan has the same radiator grille as the Aurus Senat sedan, with its own headlights. A distinctive feature of the Aurus Arsenal are the rear pillars: they are wide at the bottom, narrow at the top and have a reverse slope. It differs in a hood layout, rather than a carriage one, which allows to place engines of large overall dimensions.[3]

The car is equipped with a hybrid power plant consisting of a V8 4.4 gasoline engine (598 hp) and a nine-speed automatic transmission with an integrated electric motor (with a nominal output of 38 hp and a peak output of 63 hp.).[4]
