Uploaded 7 months ago by Autogefühl

Video Summary

The Hyundai Inster is based on the Hyundai Casper. It has a chunky micro SUV design, similar to the Suzuki Ignis. The Pixel LED lighting is a nice touch, and the main headlamp unit is located lower on the front. The design is a tall boy urban hatchback.

It is 3.8 meters in length, making it compact and ideal for city driving. It has roof rails to improve its design. The squared wheel arches feature black cladding. There is an interesting-looking bulge near the rear door.

There are two battery options, 42 and 49-kilowatt hour gross numbers. The smaller battery has a system output of 97 horsepower, while the larger one outputs 115 horsepower. The WLTP range for the larger battery is 370 kilometers, and the smaller one is 327. 10 to 80% charging is about 30 minutes with the 85-kilowatt DC charger for the big battery. Higher trims feature a heat pump as standard. You can also get vehicle-to-load to power appliances.

The key fob supports keyless go. Interior materials are not the best quality, but the inlays have different color options, such as an ivory checkered design. It has a dual screen for the instrument cluster. It is designed to be a mobile office.

The interior is impressive. One can forgive the harder plastics, as there is ambient lighting in the front. The 10.3-inch infotainment system seems a little dated, the small icons are quite small. Navigation features a built-in network of chargers, planning a route based on topography, temperature, and range.

The steering has large knobs for fan and temperature controls and quick buttons for the parking camera, along with multi-functional knobs to control the maps. Rear seats feature a 50/50 reclining function.

Legally, this is a four-seater. No center seat in the back, there are ISOFIX points on the outer seats, can recline all the way and has a long loading area. Overall, the design is a key benefit.
