Hyundai Inster Design And Features
Hyundai latest teaser shows a new micro electric SUV flaunting a candid and futuristic look. It seems to be an all-electric version of the Casper micro SUV which is being sold in the global markets. But as is the case with EV versions, this new upcoming model will incorporate EV-specific design elements. If we talk of the design, the Inster EV’s poster image shows pixel-style signature LED DRLs and round LED headlamps.
The Hyundai Inster EV’s rear profile also gets the same pixel-style LED tail lamps. Since its the first teaser, most of the design cues are still kept a mystery. However, it seems the Inster will also equip the charging port at the front fender similar to the upcoming Creta EV. We didn’t get any glimpse of the front grille but it could feature a blanked-off design.
The feature details are not revealed at the moment but we can expect the Inster to come with a RWD single motor setup. The battery capacity is also not specified but rumors indicate it could offer up to 355 km range per charge.
