British customers will get their first chance to see Hyundai’s eagerly awaited new Inster as it embarks on a national roadshow in October and December, taking on 86 Hyundai retailers during its journey.
Pre-production versions of the A-segment small electric sub-compact SUV, which was revealed in June, will be on display ahead of the order books opening later this year and the first deliveries in January.
Unveiled at the Busan International Mobility Show in Korea, the Inster made a positive first impression courtesy of its robust exterior design, spacious interior and sophisticated technology in an urban-friendly SUV package.
Building on the design legacy of the Casper, a petrol-powered model available in Korea, the Inster will be positioned between traditional A-segment sub-compact city cars and larger B-segment compact models, offering a blend of manoeuvrability and ease of use with strong practicality and flexibility.
The characterful exterior design, with its small SUV profile, bold wheelarches, distinctive LED lighting and elevated ride height is complemented by a sleek cockpit that provides enhanced technology thanks to a 10.25” digital cluster and a 10.25” infotainment touchscreen, plus a wireless charging dock in the centre console. The Inster offers great versatility, too, with all the seats able to be folded flat, to maximise capacity, while those in the second row slide and can be split 50/50, adding to the versatility.
The performance promises to be cutting-edge, too, with both 42kWh and Long Range 49kWh batteries available, allied to an electric motor that delivers either 71.1kW (97PS) or 84.5kW (115PS). This allows the Inster to deliver a segment-leading driving range of up to 220 miles* (WLTP) with 15” wheels on a single charge.
And with a suite of advanced driver assistance systems, including Surround View Monitor, Blind-spot View Monitor and Intelligent Speed Assist, the Inster promises a comfortable and safe driving experience, either in urban environments or out of town.
