2025 Hyundai Inster Cross revealed; off-road-styled EV coming to Australia

It may not be an off-road 4x4, but the all-new Inster Cross EV city car has been dressed for ‘mild’ outdoor adventure.

Slated to arrive in Australia in Q1 of 2025, the Hyundai Inster Crossover wears a suite of touring equipment including roof racks as standard (with the option to add a basket); new front and rear bumpers; skid plates; bespoke 17-inch alloy wheels; and embossed black claddings.

Aside from the aforementioned exterior changes, everything else remains unchanged from the regular Inster model – so both ground clearance and the electric drivetrain remain as per the standard model. Best visit campsites that can be reached via bitumen and mild dirt tracks. The drivetrain is said to offer up to 360km of all-electric range, and it can be charged from 10 to 80 per cent in approximately 30 minutes.

Safety kit includes an ADAS package consisting of Highway Driving Assist 1.5; Smart Cruise Control; and Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist 1.5.

In addition to the regular colour palette offered for the Inster, an exclusive exterior colour dubbed Amazonas Green Matte is offered for this specific model. Plus, it gets a unique colour and trim combination of grey cloth with lime-yellow accents in the cabin.

Production will begin later this year at Hyundai’s manufacturing plant in Korea.
