The Inster EV sports circular LED DRLS surrounding the headlamp cluster. The pixel-themed turn signals are positioned higher up in a black bar spanning the width of the fascia.
On the sides, the chunky wheel arches house 17-inch alloy wheels. The Inster also gets pillar-mounted rear door handles and functional roof rails.
At the back, the pixel theme continues on the light bars extending to the Hyundai logo in the centre. Then, there is a roof spoiler, circular taillights, parking lights on the bumper, and a high-mounted stop lamp.
The Inster's cabin features dual 10.25-inch screens for the digital instrument cluster and the touchscreen infotainment system.
Other features include a multi-function steering wheel, 360-degree camera, auto climate control, ventilated seats, wireless charging, and a full ADAS suite.

The Hyundai Inster EV is offered in two battery pack options — 42kWh and 49kWh. Both are paired with a single electric motor producing 95bhp/147Nm and 113bhp/147Nm, respectively. The claimed driving range stands at 355km on a single charge. The 10-80 per cent charge in 30 minutes is possible through fast charging using a 120kW DC charger.
