FIRST LOOK: Hyundai INSTER – inside the £22k city car that’s set to be a huge hit | Electrifying

Read the review:

This is the Hyundai INSTER – which absolutely appears to have been called to attempt and attract the Gen Z vehicle purchasers. Only no one informed them that, if that holds true, they must have called it the TikTok or the SnapChat because just old people like the team usage Instagram, nowadays!

Anyway, the new Hyundai INSTER is based on Hyundai's existing little city automobile – the . The Casper is presently only offered in Korea (in my viewpoint, Casper would have been a better name to stick with!), which is likewise where it's developed as part of a joint endeavor with among the local producers. And that's what allows Hyundai to reduce expenses.

Speaking of which, Hyundai hasn't verified rates, yet, however the INSTER is anticipated to cost from around ₤ 22,000 – a similar amount to its arch bane, the Citroen e-C3.

It's not going to be quickly, mind … The 95bhp, 42kWh INSTER will take 11.7 sec to get to 62mph. The larger 49kWh automobile gets a massive 113bhp, for a somewhat less awkward 0-62mph time of 10.6 seconds.

Thanks to a long( ish) 2.58 m wheelbase means that the INSTER has pretty good area in those back seats, and you can even include an optional setup that enables the seats to slide and recline, so that you can prioritise more boot area or legroom. If you do include that choice, though, you can only seat 2 individuals in the rear seats– rather than the three that you can squeeze in if you stick to the basic seats. As with the front seats, the rear seats also fold flat, however they only seat 2 individuals.

    I just fell in love with the inster, and it’s not limmerence. Never mind the demographic audience for this vehicle, hyundai just ticked almost all the boxes of my wishlist what I need an compact EV to be to have value. I think this EV has appeal for all dempraphocs. Hyundai just blew the competition away in my view with other brands in this segment based on specs and features, as standard, interior en exterior, alone. If the 49 kwh can achieve all weather all season range of 186 miles between 20 and 80% soc I’m sold! Hoping the 49 kwh version will be well below 25000 euros incl taxes. If so it is true value for money than the competition. The eC3 basically only has the comfort suspension going for it, the fiat 500e has only the iconic design going for it for a hefty comparative price, the compact byd maybe has more style a slightly more interior stle but far less fully specced than the inster, the id2all may be a close competitor but will likely have a heftiger pricetag and slightlynless features, maybe only competing on slightly better performance specs, the honda ev has better front interior design for a hefty price butbwoth much less range and size, the Dacia is too basic for the price and performance and looks relatively expensive for the price, renault 5 looks lackluster in terms of total package compared to the Inster EV, but you’re paying mainly for design and modern nostalgia (which will likely be more niche now in my view

    I love that the seats are foldable 💯 & that they didn’t try to sell it as a 5 seater. Families of 5 with a single car are rare and that’s not the kind of car they would buy anyway. Cargo space is what gives the versatility.
    The name is the only thing I don’t like but I’m also not a gen Z so… Well done Hyundai.

    I don’t know about the target demographic but I think this will be a hit across all age groups. It looks cool, has really thoughtful design touches and really well integrated tech. Small, light and more affordable, this is a great example of what EVs should be – fantastic job by Hyundai.

    Looks like a brilliantly practical little car and also not skimped on the equipment either which is great! I know lots of people who have stepped up to a segment above what they want/need only because the equipment they want isn’t available in the smaller car. I used to have a first generation A-Class, this certainly has more rear legroom but the versatility of the interior reminds me of that.

    I freaking love k cars, I wish the EU made a category for them, so we can have cheaper insurance and taxes so they are finally properly sold here. in the mean while this is probably good enough, although I really want slidy doors, I was considering a second-hand Citroen e-Berlingo, but this will probably take its place (i like camping).

    I have a Kona 39kwh (2020), since the last 3 years and its been my only and main car. With the average maximum range of 250km (155miles) and its been perfectly fine. Inster with its +200miles range would be a nice upgrade for me to be honest :). I absolutely love my Kona and its long warranty.

    This is so cool. It’s going to sell so well in the UK. They’ve finally realised cheap electric cars don’t need to be boring and that interior especially looks nicer than anything under £30K. Glad to see it also has all of the tech you expect from a more expensive car, including the heat pump as standard, it’s going to be a much better proposition than the E-C3 and the new Fiat Panda. I don’t think anything is going to come close for the money. I’d even choose this over the BYD Dolphin etc.
