Hyundai INSTER shines at the World Car Awards and reinforces electric leadership
Hyundai is once again making history on the international motoring scene with another major achievement. The Hyundai INSTER was voted the World Electric of 2025 at the prestigious World Car Awards, held during the New York International Auto Show. This award confirms the South Korean brand's growing presence in the world of electric mobility, highlighting the INSTER as one of the most complete, efficient and innovative proposals in the subcompact segment.
Chosen by a panel of 96 specialised journalists from 30 countries, the Hyundai INSTER impressed with its distinctive design, high autonomy, engaging driving and intuitive technology. With fast charging that allows you to reach between 10 and 80 per cent of the charge in just 30 minutes, the 49 kWh long range version achieves up to 370 km of autonomy, figures that position this model among the most practical and efficient in its category.
This global recognition comes at a time when Hyundai is reinforcing its commitment to sustainability and technological innovation. With an increasingly solid electric portfolio, the brand had already been honoured in previous years with the IONIQ 5, IONIQ 6 and IONIQ 5 N models, which won World Performance Car titles and multiple awards in 2022, 2023 and 2024. INSTER now joins this lineage of success, underlining Hyundai's consistency and long-term vision in the automotive sector.
More than an award, this honour represents an international validation of Hyundai's strategy in electrification by offering consumers an affordable electric vehicle with advanced technology and a modern, efficient driving experience. INSTER proves that it is possible to unite urban mobility, attractive design and sustainability, all in a compact and surprisingly versatile format.
With this victory, Hyundai not only reinforces its leadership among today's most relevant electric cars, but also consolidates its image among consumers as an innovative brand with real solutions to the mobility challenges of the present and the future.
