It is also tiny at just 1.5 feet, which makes it smaller than a Venue.
The Hyundai Casper is a small, yet powerful crossover that Hyundai is teasing ahead its launch in South Korea. The vehicle is a surprise to behold, with its huge LED lights and a slit at the lower grille.
The famously friendly cartoon ghost that gave birth to the name Casper is not what gives rise to the Casper name. It comes from a trick in which the skateboard flips and spins as the rider jumps. The vehicle will be available for order by Hyundai in September. Delivery will begin later in the year.
The Casper is a cute looking model, despite its profile being muscular. The lines are clean and the fenders slightly extend beyond the body. A rugged look is also added by the cladding surrounding the fenders.
The rear is dominated by a hatchback with a high raked roof. The lower corners have large taillights with white inside and red outer sections. Its shape is reminiscent of the large lamps at the front.
Hyundai has not released photos of the interior.
Hyundai has confirmed that the Casper can be ordered with either a turbocharged 1.0-liter engine or a naturally aspirated 1.0-liter engine. Asia Today states that the vehicle measures 11.79 feet (3,595 millimeters), 5.233 feet (1.595 millimeters), and has a 7.874 foot (2,400 millimeter) wheelbase.
The Hyundai Venue, which is the brand’s smallest available crossover in the US, is a lot larger than the Casper. It measures 13.258 feet (4.041 millimeters), is 5.808 feet (1.770 millimeters), and has an 8.267 foot (2,520 millimeters).
While the vehicle was being tested in the snow , spy shots were actually taken of the Casper. It was being referred to internally as AX-1 at the time. The big lights at the front, even though camouflage was worn, were clearly a key part of the design.
