New city car based on Korean-market Casper will be revealed at the Busan motor show
Hyundai has announced it will reveal a new electric city car called the Inster later this month, with the new model targeting an official range of 220 miles. It described the model as an “evolution” of the Casper, a petrol-powered Suzuki Ignis rival that is offered exclusively in South Korea. “Inster will set new standards in terms of driving range, technology, and safety features,” the company said in a statement.
It reported that the petrol-powered Casper is not bound for European markets, adding that the EV would offer greater power and range than the rival Dacia Spring. For reference, that car offers 44bhp and 64bhp motors, and a range of up to 137 miles. Regardless of which models Hyundai decides to import to Europe, it has previously committed to continued production of small cars.
