The Hyundai Inster will be launched from Korea at the beginning of next year, which will cost "significantly less than 25,000 euros", according to a brand spokesperson. "We certainly won't be offering the Inster for 24,990 euros, but will be asking a much lower price." The small electric car was unveiled at the Busan International Mobility Show back in July. In its home country, it rolls off the production line as the "Caspar", a name that those responsible for Europe did not necessarily find sales-promoting, which is why the Caspar became the Inster and also dropped out of the nomenclature of the Ioniq model family. The small car measures 3.83 meters in length, making it 13 centimeters longer than the first Golf generation.
Despite its manageable dimensions, as an initial seat test showed, the Inster achieves generous interior space, making the model a fully-fledged vehicle not just for the city. The basic version has a 42 kWh battery that supplies its energy to a 71 kW (91 hp) motor. There will also be a version with a 49 kWh battery and 85 kW (115 hp) drive. Both units achieve a maximum torque of 147 Newton meters. Hyundai promises a range of 355 kilometers for the larger energy storage unit. No figures are yet available for the smaller battery. Thanks to the possible charging capacity of 120 kW, it takes around 30 minutes to charge the battery from ten to 80 percent at a fast-charging station. Hyundai promises a top speed of 150 km/h. (aum)
