More specifically, the number of "reservations" was 18,940. The reason for such a stir is obviously the price. Thus, for the base version of the Smart, the manufacturer asks for $11,869 in terms of Korean won, the average Modern trim is estimated at $13,612, and the top Inspiration option is valued at $16,010.

The Hyundai Casper is only 3595 mm long, 1595 mm wide, and 1575 mm high. Despite this, it accommodates four adults on board. The rear seats can be folded flat, making the car usable as a sleeping place. The trunk volume is 302 liters.

The ground clearance is 162 mm. This is a good indicator.

The Casper also has decent equipment. There is multimedia with an 8-inch screen and voice recognition system, a 4.2-inch screen in the instrument cluster, audio with 6 speakers, 7 airbags, many electronic assistants such as rear parking sensors, forward collision avoidance systems, lane keeping assist, blind spot monitoring, and even intelligent cruise control that relies on navigation data.

Buyers have two engines to choose from: a 1.0-liter three-cylinder naturally aspirated engine with 75 hp and a 1.0-liter turbocharged T-GDI with 99 hp. Both units work in conjunction with a four-speed automatic transmission that drives the front wheels. The manufacturer also promises to launch an electric version.

Later, the Hyundai Casper will appear in other markets.
