The interior of the Aura also marked a new interior direction for Saturn, moving to a more European-style interior.
The design of the interior of the Aura differed from that of the Ion, which was highly criticized.
On the upscale XR model, the interior came with an option for saddle leather and paddle shifters, as well as an option for back seat radio controls.
Despite being praised for its design and fit and finish, the Aura's interior was criticized for using cheap materials.

The Aura XR's standard features included: automatic climate control, remote vehicle start, Stabilitrak stability control, backseat audio controls, heated seats, six airbags, ABS four-wheel disc brakes, steering wheel audio controls, universal home remote, OnStar and a "Driver Information Center".
