Performance

The Hyundai INSTER Long Range kWh provides basic performance with a maximum power of 84.5 kW (115 hp / 113 bhp) and a total torque of 147 Nm (108 lb-ft). It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in 10.6 seconds and reaches a top speed of 150 km/h (93 mph), which is more comparable to entry-level traditional internal combustion engine vehicles.

Battery, Range, and Charging

The high-capacity battery has a gross capacity of 49.0 kWh and a net usable capacity of 46.0 kWh, providing a 3.0 kWh buffer (6.1%) for battery protection. With a nominal voltage of 310 volts, the system is classified as a 400-volt battery system, aligning with industry standards. This Lithium-Ion battery utilizes NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt) technology.

According to the WLTP (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure) standard, the vehicle's range is 355 km (221 miles), with an energy consumption rate of 13.0 kWh/100 km (3 mi/kWh). For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listings on this model’s range and consumption page.

The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of 80 kW. Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 67 minutes, while a more typical scenario from 10% to 80% takes 32 minutes with an average charging speed of 61 kW. Considering an additional 5 minutes for each charging stop due to driving interruptions, the optimal charging range is from 1% to 70%. This results in an effective charging speed, including time lost, of 59 kW, with each charging session taking about 32 minutes and 23 seconds.

In a 1000 km challenge at a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) with an assumed consumption rate of 21 kWh/100 km, the trip would take about 11 hours and 11 minutes, requiring six charging stops from 6% to 66%, totaling 171 minutes of charging time.
