Change your car with Carwow: This is the Hyundai Inster! It’s an all-new compact electric car that’s meant to rival similar small EVs like the Citroen EC3! It looks super quirky, but is it more style over substance Mat’s about to find out. When it comes to the design, the Inster certainly looks unique! Up front there’s a distinctive design with some of the wildest hazard lights we’ve seen on any car. Along the side, the cuteness & boxy design is turned up to 10, and we think it looks pretty smart with the roof bars added. Unfortunately, though, these aren’t available on the entry-level car! Around the back, there’s a unique tail light design, and when the brake is applied they become some of the brightest rear lights we’ve ever seen! The interior has a 1990s vibe, with quite a bit of plastic throughout the cabin. However, there’s still quite a lot of stand-out and impressive tech! There’s a big infotainment screen and a digital dial display. The latter even throws up camera displays when the indicators are used. The whole interior is fairly well-built, and the two-tone effect on the seats is pretty nice. The rear seats also come with lots of adjustment - pretty impressive for such a small car! There are two battery and motor combinations available. The first is the standard range, which has a single motor that delivers 97hp and a claimed range of 203 miles, while there’s also a Long Range available. This also has a single motor, but it can put down 115hp and has a claimed range of 229 miles. So is the Inster the must-have small EV Or would you choose the EC3 instead

The front and rear lights not matching stylistically honestly annoys me so much. Neither looks particularly great, but having them not even match front to back makes it so much worse. The pixel style doesn't really work with this car's design either, it's as if Hyundai just HAD to include it because it's their signature for EVs. The interior is pretty dreadful too, it looks about 20-25 years old if you ignore the screens. Maybe the dark interior option looks better. The e-C3 looks so much better inside and out, and it charges faster. The Inster would have to be an efficiency beast to even be worth considering unless you really love the look of it.

I love this car, it covers SO many bases. I hope we'll see a ton of them on the road. It's a real bummer you had the black one to review, I wish you'd had the Sage, I reckon you'd have been far more swept up in it with a different colour scheme inside and out. It has vehicle to load, so you could have an air mattress in the car and inflate it using the car. so I DARE YOU to do just that and take this puppy on a camping trip.

That road noise Matt spoke of, we can bloody hear it, that is completely unacceptable for a car of this price especially when you consider how slow he was driving. It sounds like a bloody skateboard. I would have expected some decent sound deadening or at the very least some noise cancelling speakers, that white noise is horrendous, I'd be asleep after a couple of miles.

Modern cars are such a disappointment. The old small cars were superior in most ways.
1992 Peugeot 205 GRD, 70bhp per ton, (850kg) 650mile range on 50 litres. Handles like a race car compared to these ridiculously heavy cars.
I'm waiting for cars to involve to time machines so I can go back and get some decent 90s cars in good condition.

I had never heard of this car before, but after this video it is a serious contender for our family's second car. We already have a Model S, so we don't need another huge car, but our 2012 Mazda 2 really needs a replacement soon. I love the quirkyness of this car, yet it is still a solid build and practical one. Those are rare.

I appreciate the idea of an electric vehicle that is seemingly normal on the inside. Buttons! I would go for an electric car if everything else was normal. I don’t want all the tech nonsense, just the efficiency of the electric car. Car designs like this would be more appealing to me.

Not sure why car manufacturers put cheap carpet that's hard to clean in cars. Why don't they use rubber as standard that you can easily wipe clean and have carpet as an option. My wife's car is nigh on impossible to hoover as all those nasty bits just get caught up in the fibres.

Electric cars are just so bad in so many ways. Rip up the ground to make the battery then replace the battery after 7 years and pay to get it removed and then rip up the earth again, also destroying family life’s. All so we can say we are green. Evil world we live in

Love to see some innovative packaging in a small car. Flexible rear seat room and storage. This is one spot where Mini has really lost a step. They don't offer anything with as good of packaging as a 1st-gen Countryman in their current line-up.

Nice very unique. Interior/Exterior design 8/10. Power Unit 8/10. Performance 8/10. Overall Score 96/100. Buy as it will be an instant Inster Hit. Hyundai have been nailing it as of late. They know how to capture the market with the WOW factor.

If there was an ICE or hybrid version it would be a really great deal. I like all the physical buttons, cameras and how spacious it is but electric cars are out of the question when you drive across Europe couple of times a year
reply

Not an electric car guy but one thing I noticed: That car has physical buttons in the interior. The one thing that bothers me most with many electric and newer cars in general, is that they use touch screen buttons so much now
reply

What a lovely car! This is exactly what we need in this ever so dull car market lately.
I'll go for one in that flat camo green colour or burnt orange I've seen pics of, this one in black doesn't do it justice

The basic petrol version in Korea costs the equivalent of 9000 euros, with a 75hp or 100hp with turbo. I drove it as a rental car there, it's well equipped and the driving position is perfect.
reply

This car is not an Ioniq series
It's a small car-based electric car sold in Korea
There are three versions of the gasoline turbo model, non-turbo, and electric car.

11: 13 The maximum DC charge is 73 kW and 85 kW respectively. So why is the charging time at 150 kW specified, whereas the car can't handle that charging power
reply

goodlooking little car, inside and outside.
Like how all seats can be folded down.
Edit: wonder if they sell optional privacy screens to sleep in the car

reply

Why is there no mention of battery manufacturers when discussing vehicles like the C3 and others I believe we still need to validate Chinese batteries further.

Very practical washing machine on wheels! It's not terribly! it just works. very industrial designy - like it could be in the kitchen, hence the washing machine
reply

Those rims look like Jerusalem Cross. Not surprising if the remaining 4 Saints cross are sold as aftermarket accessories by the enterprising Hyundai
