The Electrified Aurus Senat – First Photo.

The restyled Aurus Senat sedan, equipped with a new powertrain, was unveiled at the ProDvizhenie (Promotion) festival in Moscow, held at VDNKh.

The left front fender is particularly striking: it features a hatch that likely conceals a charging port.

Standard Aurus cars don't have one: although the model initially features a hybrid powertrain (a 598-horsepower V8 assisted by an electric motor), it's a mild hybrid (MHEV), with the internal combustion engine playing a dominant role and no plug-in capability. The new version, however, boasts a higher level of electrification.

It's highly likely that this is a plug-in hybrid, also known as a PHEV. These cars can run on pure electricity, without the use of an internal combustion engine.

The Senat's facelift, however, is no longer a big secret. The updated version of the Aurus Senat was unveiled in May 2024.

The restyled Senat differs from the outgoing model with a redesigned front and rear end, completely new headlights and taillights, and a more modern interior.

Incidentally, the electrified sedan shown here has updated headlights once again, as they now have their own unique design.
