@@aXimo SUVs only sell the best because manufacturers force them onto consumers, dumbass. the ford fiesta is a small car that was consistently among the best-selling cars in the UK, but ford removed it from production anyway- consumers can't buy a car that isn't for sale.
Many Americans and Africans still like big tank size cars because they think bigger means more prestige even when they are only one person in the car most of the time.
This what the EV market now needs. We've had all the larger £40k plus executive style EV's. What we need now, are smaller, less costly EV's, and this one is a fine example... It's a city commuter, although with a 200 mile range it could go well beyond a city environment.... There seems to be quite a lot of thoughtful design in this car. Why don't more cars offer a folding front passenger seat to increase practicality?
Exactly the kind of car that is required to reduce air pollution and congestion on our roads. I expect it will sell very well as it comes with a five year warranty and hyundia"s reputation for quality and reliability.
@@12alocin Yeah bigger car means more congestion it's been proven! but in europe you pretty much only got small cars, if you compare with Canada or the USA, here the vast majority on the roads are SUV and pickup trucks!
There are far better colours available than the black. I'm surprised you didn't fold down the drivers seat too! One of the drawcards for this car has to be that you can go camping in it! It has vehicle to load, you can literally pump up an air mattress to use IN the car using THE CAR! Really is an impressive little thing.
This is such a cool little car. I had a facelifted Kona Electric for 3 years and it was amazing. This is going to sell so well in the UK! If I wasn't a wheelchair user I'd have this as my next car. I don't see it replacing my AWD bZ4X though 😔
Really wish they would bring these to the US. We need more small car options here, and this absolutely trounces the FIAT 500e in practicality and price. I love the styling. This would slot in perfectly as a fantastic city car with just enough specs to pull off road trips without being a nightmare like the Bolt.
Got rid of the 17” alloy wheels that came with my gen 3 Prius, got a set of 15” with 2” more sidewall rubber therefore. Much better ride quality, and the car doesn’t suffer as badly either. Very little change in width of the tyre, half-inch perhaps. Like several councils, ours is virtually bankrupt, with local roads being their purview, I looked at your wheels and tyre combo in concern. ! Really, the trend for low profiles surely is based on imaginary roads we in the UK no longer even aspire to. But it’s your cars, fit what you want, this is just my opinion. Good little car otherwise. Take care all.
Fantastic small car. I actually didn’t think it was possible to achieve a car this good, at this price point, without being a complete S box. The physical controls shouldn’t have excited me as much as the did though.
@@dmytronazarenkov1312 none of the brochures of any country in Europe has this as an orderable feature. Not in Italy, Netherlands, Slovakia. Dont missunderstand me, I would be happy if.
Yes, i don't get it why i can not have it as an option like the Sunroof. Ventilated seats r more efficient then AC , same as heated seats r more efficient then the normal heater = more range. Sad to not have that option.
In what world is £23k cheap?! City cars like the Peugeot 108 were only £10k brand new. It might be cheap in terms of other electric cars but it’s not cheap enough for the common man to own without significant debt/outgoings. Would be £400 per month with £4000 deposit on a 4 year pcp. That’s almost 25% of someone’s monthly pay after tax. Rents skyrocketing enough as is. Manufacturers need to do much better if they plan on selling to the many people earning less than £27k a year
I'm an American and my daily is a Chevy Bolt. It's also all electric, quite small, but they put a 200 hp electric motor in it. Performance is VERY tire-limited but it scoots up to 60 in maybe 6.5. I don't know if a fast car is ever needed - but the jump from a car this slow to my Bolt really makes it easier to drive under any condition. This car would be a very tough sell here. But the style and the clever ideas are great. I'd love to see this car's style adapted to the next gen Kia Soul or even the Hyundai Kona.
a very good car. the only really draw back is the lack of a frunk, especially with little storage space, it would be great for the charging cable. regarding the battery, actually 7kWh is an increase of 16.7% for an extra price of only 6.7% price bump in the basic version and even less in the better version.
I'm happy that finally cheaper, tiny EV's come out to the market🙏 But let me tell you one important fact to this tiny car... You've forgotten shown the special thing at this tiny, clever car... You also can fold down the drivers seat! Than you can take a nap or sleep in it! ... enough space for two... No other new tiny car got this cool option!
When the early walkarounds were done a few months ago, they showed both the front passenger and driver seat as being foldable. Is it now only the passenger seat that can be folded down?
Great video Doug, but this is not the Inster 02 - it’s the European model (maybe the Evolve Sky). The Inster 02 does not have (and cannot have) a sunroof.
Despite of the controversial face - This is what the market is asking for. Hyundai shows how to create a small EV fits to 90% of the needs. Well done. A kick in the ass for Volkswagen.
The newer Jazz does about 8.9 (based on real world tests, Honda claims 9.4) so that's a bit of a difference compared to the 11.4 0-60 for the slower Inster models. But those are still pretty reasonable figures for most drivers, especially with the instant torque from the electric motors.
10 seconds is fine for everyday driving. My car does 9 with 110hp and I almost never use the full acceleration. The only time I find my car lacking is when it's fully loaded with 4 or 5 people but even then it's ok. This is on uk mixed roads. I wouldn't want a sports car with that motor but as a economy box car the inster will be fine, especially at lower town speeds.
Interesting but does it worth £10k more than a Dacia Spring? Hmm, I can see a comparison test coming... Dacia Spring vs Citroën e-C3 vs Hyundai Inster, which is best? ⁉️🤔
Does this differ by country? I see that Czech Republic price lists lists folding front seats (as well as being able to move/recline rear seats) as being included in all trim levels except for the cheapest one.
Sometimes yes. So the Hyundai dealer in my country may only bring the top variant for the first year, and maybe the mid spec when sales on the top spec begin to drop. They may only bring lower trims when they realise that import dealers are selling a lot of them. So what the Hyundai dealership locally say is their cheapest model may be mid tier model in other regions.
It's a Chinese car. The CCP has vested interest in the company. No one in their proper mind should even contemplate the possibility of buying a Chinese car when the revenue from its sale goes straight to the CCP coffers. Boycott Chinese products, for the sake of mankind.
It appears to be significantly more than the sum of its parts. The issue is that the fully spec’ed version is not priced much below the base Kia EV3, which offers rather more.
There will be a few people who will be determined to sleep on one, just to say they have, but, if you have the money to buy one of these, then just get a cheap b@b.
This would be great if it had a little more range and then be considered as an only car. As it is I'll wait for the Kia EV2 and see ifvthat is an improvement.
Love this size Car, Not too Big and Awkward, The outside Looks Good, And the inside as well, Love the Buttons, Quick and Easy to use, The only Fault I can Pick is the Size of the Motor, Maybe it's me But I would have Liked to see a Bigger Motor, For Highway Driving and Going up Hills. Also for Overtaking Trucks and Caravans, Without too much Problems. Other than that, Great Little Car.
That transferable SEVEN Year Warranty on the Battery and the Motor Drive Unit plus those associated Electrical drive modules will help it keep a premium price for those wanting to trade it on into the second hand Market...but Crystal Ball gazing down that road into the future might be slightly sketchy ... 3500 Euro Government Grand coupled with dropping prices of New Electric Cars,here in Ireland HAS to shake up the New Car Market... 11:15
I love the clever designs in the Inster and the technology, however its base model is simply too expensive. The MG4 is not a comparison as it's so cheap and nasty. However, against the Renault 5EV and Citroen E-C3 it isn't cheap enough. The closest to this is the VW E-Up (as a tiny city car). Besides the fact that VW no longer make it, most would prefer a VW badge than a Hyundai badge.... Maybe (just maybe) great finance packages will help it.
You're joking right? I own both VW and Hyundai. Hyundai all day long. Better built, Better value for money, better reliability, better customer service and a 5 year warranty. And Hyundai are not massively in debt (several billion $) and closing factories all over the place. VW's future looks a bit grim.
My family is 5. It's a pity all these small cars only have 4 seats. Makes it something I can never buy. Hopefully a small, affordable, 5 seater EV comes out soon, my cars pretty old now (2013).
It is cheap relative to the electric car category. Remember also that prices in the UK are higher. On the continent the starting price is around £20k and in South Korea it's under £17k.
Efficiency at 3.9 miles per kWh is poor for such a small and modestly powered EV. My Fiat 500e has averaged a mediocre 4.6 miles per kWh over the last 3 years, but at least it has brisk performance.
Those of us old enough to remember the original mini car would not call this "small" and those of us not made of money would not call it "cheap". That said, I do like it, but enough with the hyperbole
Nice vehicle - and trustworthy manufacturer. Reviewers are obsessed with "good/bad plastic". - it's plastic - even in the appalling new Porsche - plastic plastic plastic is what we live in now. Nice to see Android choice, instead of the zombie Apple krap. This is £21k in Korea - even with the recent 20% price increases... This is not really an EV to run a complex driving life with ( which applies to 100% of EVs) but is obviously a City car winner... pity about storage Oh - and it doesn't have a "middle" back seat ... and we know how often an uncomfortable, cramped, narrow middle seat is needed... ( 3 kid families the exception...)
It's a completely different car. Not everyone wants a Tesla, not everyone has the space for one or maybe doesn't want to support a fascist loving billionaire. Also this is brand new and when they are available second hand it will cost less than the Tesla. Apples and oranges.
The 2 passenger rear will be a deal breaker for many. The sliding rear seat isn't available in the lowest price model and other reviews indicate that rear legroom is mediocre without it. My local Hyundai dealer is quoting OTR prices for the dearer two models of nearly £27k and £29k, I suspect that if you configure your own (eg. for choice of paint), the dearest model will be around £30k. A pro EV review and benign comments here from EV evangelists don't translate into a viable (affordable) choice for many.
Wow, I'm amazed to see that my wife's 7 year old Ioniq 28kwh can charge twice as fast from (10%-80% in approx. 15min) and still return and average 4.8miles/kwh. So it looks like its a keeper then...
Its roughly the same charge speed mate. It's just a bigger battery, you'll probably get similar mileage in a similar charge time. I'm not saying the ioniq isn't awesome though. Its a very different car though.
They just need to make the finance cheaper now. Quoted nearly £400 pm. I have a perfect credit rating. I think not. That was leasing. Three months down over four years. Far too expensive. Leaseloco will probably be cheaper towards the middle of next year. Needs to be nearer £300
Fully charged said this was going to come out with petrol as well as electric in their walk around video, Soooooo disappointed to find out that’s actually not the case
If you want a small city car that's petrol you have a huge choice out there already, especially second hand. Please don't moan about one of the first decent EV ones.
As others have touched on within the comments, the decision to compare the Hyundai with the MG4 is floored (putting it politely), and personally, I’m getting bored of the negativity projected at MG by this channel. You reference some of the other “affordable” options that have launched this year (which are genuine competitors) and then don’t make reference to any of them. With regard to the car, I like it! Isn’t it interesting that the things which make this car so appealing are, in summary, its creative packaging. Which allows it to offer the practicality, etc. it just shows what can be done when a design team actually thinks about what they’re doing. Other brands need to sit up and listen… it’s NOT a race to see who can put the biggest touchscreen on the dash…
Because it's smaller than a golf? Easier to park, cheaper to run, electric powered, longer warranty, lower servicing costs? Its an A/B segment car with all the pos and cons of that.
Glad to see a manufacturer not bring out a new car which is the size of a tank. This is what the market is crying out for.
Oh, you mean those SUV that everyone hates, but somehow those are the cars that sells the best?

Really wish these reviews would include a segment showing some urban driving. That’s what a car like this excels at!
This is just perfect as a city roundabout, Inster also looks quite interesting, great job by Hyundai ❤❤
I fail to see how "Inster" is a combination of "intimate" and "innovative".
Probably in korean
The drivers seat also folds flat so you can sleep in it.

The rear parcel shelf could be stowed in the rear passenger footwell if dropping both rear seats to carry cargo.
Is it available in the US? Probably not -

I'll never understand why more manufacturers don't design small cars with the "magic" rear seats you see in the Jazz.
Well done for including efficiency.
Kei for westerns got dope
the car has a lot of good points but its unfortunate that you have to get the top range model for folding seats

Its roughly the same charge speed mate. It's just a bigger battery, you'll probably get similar mileage in a similar charge time. I'm not saying the ioniq isn't awesome though. Its a very different car though.
They just need to make the finance cheaper now. Quoted nearly £400 pm. I have a perfect credit rating. I think not. That was leasing. Three months down over four years. Far too expensive. Leaseloco will probably be cheaper towards the middle of next year. Needs to be nearer £300

Once again, Hyundai is selling only their most expensive cars in the U.S. why don’t we get affordable cars in the U.S.?
American people don't prefer smaller cars
Went to a launch of this and it’s the first ever that I find interesting, still wish there was an ice option
As others have touched on within the comments, the decision to compare the Hyundai with the MG4 is floored (putting it politely), and personally, I’m getting bored of the negativity projected at MG by this channel. You reference some of the other “affordable” options that have launched this year (which are genuine competitors) and then don’t make reference to any of them.
With regard to the car, I like it! Isn’t it interesting that the things which make this car so appealing are, in summary, its creative packaging. Which allows it to offer the practicality, etc.
it just shows what can be done when a design team actually thinks about what they’re doing. Other brands need to sit up and listen… it’s NOT a race to see who can put the biggest touchscreen on the dash…
Good
Really don't care if my car has hard plastic on the interior.
My BMW i3 has hard plastic in the interior, and that cost 40k brand new.
Shame it's LHD.
How are you tall man reallllllly?
23 something for this ? !!!.You get what you pay for !
EV cars cost of elec. mileage is 50~60% cheaper than similar combustion cars at same distance.
Rather have a Renault 5 than pootle about in this dalek
£25k for this? Why would you buy this instead of a Golf? It may look better than the Dacia but you can get a Dacia for £10k.
Because it's smaller than a golf? Easier to park, cheaper to run, electric powered, longer warranty, lower servicing costs?
Its an A/B segment car with all the pos and cons of that.
hyundai spinster
well done 😂
Terrible name
But the design.
