The sticker price of the Hybrid Sonata has not been announced yet but we can expect some figures to be revealed when we come close to the official release date. Hyundai boasts that the hybrid car will hit around 40 miles for every gallon of fuel while cruising on the highway. They attribute the efficiency of the hybrid Hyundai Sonata to the battery pack made of lithium ion polymer, the aerodynamic components, and the 6-speed automatic gearbox. The non hybrid version of the Sonata hits 33 mpg on the highway.

For those still casting some doubts on hybrids, the Sonata can speed up to 62 mph while only using its battery power.

Hyundai gives consumers an 8-year minimum warranty for the purchase of the hybrid Sonata. We can expect more details for this coverage soon.  The car manufacturer will also look at the demand for the vehicle to determine the volume of production.

During a ceremony, Hyundai emphasized their commitment to average 50 mpg for their fleet by 2025. The company though will have to discuss measures that should be taken in case the standard increases to 62 miles per gallon.

The i-Flow is a clear indicator that Hyundai is going the right direction on following their fluid design philosophy. Same is true for its sister carmaker Kia which has its Ray Concept catching eyes at the Chicago Auto Show.

The rendered i-Flow though does not come with details about the car but Hyundai hints that it will be part of their D-segment line-up which will meet head on with the Ford Mondeo in the European market. Given that, we can expect a diesel engine variant on the drawing boards, and a good possibility for a hybrid system coupled with i-Flows solar cells.

The concept car was designed in Hyundai’s European Headquarters in Russelheim. The striking appearance will definitely catch the eyes of the autoworld as the sheets will be pulled off on March 2 in Geneva.

The car will be utilizing several technologies including lightweight materials, solar cells, and inputs from chemical company BASF so the car can be made lighter to improve its fuel efficiency.

We are sure more images and details about the i-Flow will be released prior to the press conference at Hall 1 of the Geneva Auto Show come March 2. We will keep you posted.

Hyundai is eyeing to compete with the Volt of Chevrolet and the next generation of Prius from Toyota. The Blue-Will has a 1.6L gas power plant under its hood assisted by a 100 kilowatt electric motor. The Korean car producer also boasts of its technology for the production of lithium battery.

Hyundai will be the first in the auto world to utilize Ion Lithium Polymer for mass produced cars.

The net mileage for the Blue-Will is 106 mpg with pure electric power bringing it 38 miles away. The gas fueled engine can also contribute about 55 mpg if needed. The car also has solar panels mounted on its roof to help in charging the car’s battery.

Aside from the efficient fuel usage, the Blue-Will boasts of headlamps made from recycled soft drink bottles. Plant extract materials were also preferred over the usual fossil fuel derivatives for the engine cover.

Hyundai does not have an official release with regard to the price of the Blue-Will. The Volt is expected to have a sticker price of around $40000.

According to Hyundai executives, their primary goal in releasing the Blue-Will is not for profit but for technology showcase to convince the market to buy and drive their cars.
