In this episode, The Fast Lane Car delves into Hyundai's bold attempt to make electric cars cool with the Inid concept. This futuristic vehicle, a souped-up version of the Inster, boasts wide rear tires, 21-inch wheels, and a design inspired by the flashy aesthetics of the 1980s. Hyundai's innovative approach shines through in the Inid's unique features, such as functional air vents and integrated speakers that emit a digital exhaust note, a departure from traditional tail lights.
The Inid's rear end, with its distinctive round motif surrounding the speakers, adds a touch of whimsy to the concept. Hyundai's attention to detail is evident throughout the car, from the retro-futuristic gauge cluster to the playful inclusion of hidden "Easter eggs" like the digital co-pilot named Boost. The designers have gone to great lengths to ensure that the Inid feels polished and well-executed, setting it apart from typical concept cars held together by spit and gum.
Hyundai's focus on infusing fun and personality into the Inid reflects a broader shift in the automotive industry towards making electric vehicles more emotionally engaging for enthusiasts. By challenging the notion that EVs are merely functional appliances, Hyundai aims to inject a sense of excitement and passion into the electric car space. The Inid serves as a testament to the brand's commitment to creating electric vehicles that not only perform well but also evoke a sense of joy and wonder among car enthusiasts.
