The 2026 Hyundai Inster Standard Range is a small five-seat electric SUV with front-wheel drive and a single-speed gearbox. It's priced from $37,500 RRP, which means that's before on-road costs get added. The figures EV buyers usually ask about are a WLTP range of 327km from a 42kWh battery, and DC fast charging that peaks at 120kW. Boot space is 280 litres with the seats up and 1,059 litres with the rear seats folded, though we don't have a braked towing capacity on record yet. It suits someone after a compact electric SUV for city and suburban driving who doesn't need to tow.
Configure the Standard RangeThe 2026 Hyundai Inster Extended Range is a compact electric hatchback designed for budget-conscious Australian buyers seeking practical city transport with genuine long-distance capability, offering a realistic 360km driving range between charges. Its standout strength is the combination of genuine usability-a 280-litre boot, five seats and affordable running costs of around $1291 annually-wrapped in a four-star ANCAP safety rating that matches much larger vehicles. One thing to consider is the modest 84kW output means modest acceleration, so it's best suited to drivers prioritising efficiency and reliability over performance.
Configure the Extended RangeThe 2026 Hyundai Inster Cross is a compact electric hatchback designed for practical city and suburban drivers who want affordable EV motoring without compromise. Its standout strength is the 360km driving range paired with modest annual running costs around $1291, making it genuinely accessible for everyday commuters and families seeking low-maintenance ownership. One consideration: the modest 84kW output means acceleration feels leisurely, so it suits relaxed drivers rather than those wanting spirited performance, though the 4-star ANCAP rating and solid 5-year warranty provide reassurance.
