The Aurora went into production on January 24, 1994 and was released for the 1995 model year. By its introduction Oldsmobile sales had fallen from a record high of 1,066,122 in 1985 to 402,936 in 1993, and rumors of the division's demise were rampant, which General Motors firmly denied. A highly modified 650 horsepower version of the engine was used by General Motors racing for the Aurora GTS 1 racing program from 1995.
