- Wild Concept will attract crowds in the Seoul mobility show
- Aggressive body and hydraulic body signal sport intention
- Could this be a more affordable alternative to Renault 5 Turbo 3E?
Hyundai has presented his latest conceptual car that attracts attention and is so wild that we had to consult with a public relations representative to make sure it was not a kind of april fool gag.
Being a lot of retro video games, the insteroid is, as his name suggests, a tiny insert, ERM, steroids. But instead of highlighting it with a high driving height and a roof rack as the cross variant did, Insoid takes things in a more sporty and exciting direction.
The body, for example, shares elements with the vision N equally wild and with hydrogen 74, with an extra wide posture, wheels “optimized by the track” and an impressive rear wing that could happily eat a cube of Korean fried chicken when it is parked at the local car meeting.

Inside, it is an interesting mixture of spicy cube seats, a roll cage and a flyer inspired by the track and an adjustable column. Hyundai says that each element of the stripped cabin is totally adjustable and that the images show that the retro-fouturo instrument cluster, which seems to have been designed by adolescent engineering, can adapt and adjust to adapt to the individual.
According to Simon Loasby, senior vice president and head of the Hyundai Design Center, also offers an “immersive sound experience” that not only comes to life when it leads it, but can also start the party when it is stationary.
This is helped by an integrated “Beat House” sound system and a grid of pixelated messages in the lower bumper that acts as a Ticker digital tape to transmit messages to the outside world. Alternatively, you can show an interactive graphic equalizer by pumping melodies.
Compact hot hatches are back in the attention center
Although the insteroid is largely a conceptual car for now, it gives a good indication of how a small, fun and affordable hot hatch could be, something that fills the void left by Volkswagen! GTI and the infamous Renault Twingo RS, for example.
Speaking of Renault, the French brand has also been exploring what is possible with electric motors and batteries, pushing its last Renault 5 to the ends with its recently presented Turbo 3E model. Although most predict that it will cost the same as most modern supercar.
Insteroids presents a similar hydraulic handbrake and an interior inspired by games that Renault debuted about its Drifting R5 Turbo concept of 2022, but reduces it to an even smaller package and, if it does to production, it could present a more affordable and diluted performance technology borrowed from the excellent hyundai ionq 5 nn
Regardless of whether it ever reaches the exhibition rooms or not, the insteroid is the type of concept that electric vehicles desperately need at this time.
Wild designs, innovative characteristics and the promise of sparkling electrical performance are things that have the potential to make people speak and the next generation really excited about the future of motoring.
In addition, he is taking advantage of a young man who is currently celebrating the Maximum power It was unpleasant sound systems, Fast and the furious-Style under the lighting of the city and larger cars adjustment culture. The 90s are very at this time, just press Instagram for proof.
If Hyundai avoids the expensive engines in the Renault Turbo 3E wheel and borrows some of the most affordable elements of the Ioniq 5 N, we could have our first hot electric hatch for the wallet in a high performance input variant.
It can then depend on the owner whether or not they want to adjust a specification sound system of the Festival in the trunk.
