  • Hyundai Tells The Story Of 2015 Tucson Fuel Cell [VIDEO]

    2015-Hyundai-Tucson-Fuel-Cell-THUMB2015 Hyundai Tucson Fuel Cell was introduced at last years Los Angeles Auto Show and it was an embodiment of brands next generation electric vehicle. The vehicle will be available at several Southern California Hyundai dealers this Spring. For the occasion, the company has released a video in which its employees tell Hyundai’s Fuel Cell story. You can watch it below.

    The driving range of the Tucson Fuel Cell on a full charge is up to 300 miles. The better news here however is that its emission is water. Furthermore, the car needs less than 10 minutes to fully charge, when compared to the current EV’s, which need at least 3 hours with a

    240V charge.

    All in all, 2015 Tucson Fuel Cell has a motor which performs just as strongly as an internal combustion engine, but it emits only water. In addition to this it is as quiet as a standard EV, but it is even more beneficial that the latter because it can go farther on a single charge.

  • Hyundai Intrado Concept Teaser

    Hyundai-Intrado-Concept-shadowHyundai-Intrado-Concept-medium

    Hyundai are really bent on shaking the foundations of the automotive industry. At least, that’s what we are led to believe from the latest piece of news that’s come out of the South Korean manufacturer. The 2014 Geneva Motor Show will host the arrival of an “iconic” concept called the Hyundai Intrado. It’s supposed to be a super-space-age type of car that brings innovation, refinement and utter awesomeness. Hyundai go as far as claiming that the Intrado, with its super-lightweight structure made from a mixture of advanced materials, has the potential to change the way cars are constructed in the future.

    Apparently, Intrado is a term from aerospace – the underside of an aircarft’s wing which produces lift. Hope they didn’t take that idea too seriously, or we fear that the grip of the Hyundai Intrado will be pretty abominable. The thing is, the concept should be drawing some inspiration from aircraft technologies – use of advanced materials, keeping it light, a form that follows function exclusively, and a highly efficient powertrain. Peter Schreyer, President & CDO of Hyundai Motor Group, commented:

    “Hyundai Intrado envisages a motoring future that encapsulates the efficiency and freedom associated with flying. I believe in the power of mobility to deliver emotional as well as physical connections and this car helps us find again the joy of discovery. Intrado shows that future cars can be relevant and exciting.”

    The body style is, actually, based on something called the Fluidic Sculpture 2.0. It  has been designed by the Hyundai Motor European R&D centre in Rüsselsheim, Germany. As for the efficient powertrain – the Intrado will make use of a lighter and less voluminous version of the one in the Hyundai ix35 Fuel Cell.

    That’s all we have for now. Viva la revolution?

  • 2014 Hyundai i20 WRC – The Winner

    Hyundai Motorsport has unveiled its full team line-up at a special launch event in Frankfurt today. The manufacturer gears up for its debut in the 2014 FIA World Rally Championship at Monte Carlo, next month.

    Going up against vastly more experienced WRC competitors, Hyundai team knows that it has a steep learning curve, but it certainly relishes the challenge and will be aiming to compete for podium places during the season.

    “We have worked tremendously hard to get where we are today and to be able to launch our new WRC team to the world,” commented Team Principal of Hyundai Motorsport GmbH, Michel Nandan.

    “In less than one year, we have built and tested a brand new WRC-specification car, the Hyundai i20 WRC, and established a professional team and modern motorsport facility. It’s a huge accomplishment but we know that we have a lot to learn in our first season. Our aims for 2014 are realistic: we want to finish each rally with both cars and build up a database of information and experience so we can develop ourselves into prospective rally winners in the future. If all goes well, we will hope to be competing for occasional podiums as the year progresses.”, he added.

    The newly liveried Hyundai i20 WRC will be on display as well as Hyundai “N”. Both will be used to symbolise Hyundai’s high performance technology and future mass-produced high performance cars.

    The company has already shown what can be accomplished in a short space of time with the right mentality and approach. For the Hyundai Shell World Rally Team, January cannot come soon enough.

  • 2014 Hyundai Veloster Turbo R-Spec Gets Sporting Equipment

    2014-Hyundai-Veloster-Turbo-R-Spec-THUMB2014 Hyundai Veloster Turbo R-Spec has been just added to the linep of exclusive Hyundai sport vehicles. The R-Spec offers not only more responsiveness but also ports aftermarket-tunable 1.6-liter direct-injected turbocharged engine coupled with the six-speed manual transmission, and a short-throw B&M Sport Shifter.

    Not to mention its unique design cues, enhanced chassis tuning and B&M Racing Sport Shifter. In fact, the Veloster Turbo R-Spec is the fourth R-Spec model in Hyundai’s lineup. It comes to add to the exquisiteness of the Genesis Coupe 2.0T R-Spec, Genesis Coupe 3.8 R-Spec and Genesis 5.0 R-Spec.

    In this case, car’s sport suspension and steering settings have been retuned for maximum responsiveness, with higher spring rates and a more rigid transmission mount. Next, the exterior of the model adds a sporty red-accented front splitter and side blades, with R-Spec badging on the rear hatch.

    Veloster Turbo R-Spec will be offered in four colors: Elite White, Ultra Black, Marathon Blue and Sprint Gray. The performance-oriented theme is continued throughout the interior which includes red leatherette bolsters with red/black cloth insert sport seats and embroidered floor mats. The cabin has also received Active Sound Design, which provides richer in-cabin powertrain resonance for an even more involving driving experience.

    What enhances the focused driving experience is the Torque Vectoring Control (TVC). This feature uses the capabilities from the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and powertrain control systems, and enhances dynamic cornering during more enthusiastic driving. In addition, TVC also utilizes wheel-speed sensors coupled with ESC algorithms. This serves in terms of application of the braking force to the inside front wheel during spirited cornering.

    2014 Veloster Turbo R-Spec Highlights:

    Unique R-Spec suspension and steering tuning for enhanced agility and feel

    6-speed close-ratio manual transmission with new shift knob design

    Short-throw B&M Racing Sport Shifter for a tighter, high-precision shift feel

    Red exterior accents on front splitter and side blades (optional; later availability)

    Red leatherette bolsters with red/black cloth insert sport seats (in lieu of standard leather on other Veloster Turbo models)

    R-Spec embroidered-logo floor mats and R-Spec exterior badging

    2014 Hyundai Veloster Turbo R-Spec has been priced at $22,110 USD and its production will begin in December this year.

  • First Renderings And Details: 2015 Hyundai Genesis Sedan

    2015-Hyundai-Genesis-Sedan-THUMBThe first renderings of the new 2015 Hyundai Genesis Premium Sedan were just revealed at an “All-New Genesis Media Preview” for the Korean media at Hyundai Motor Group’s R&D Center. The model will be launched first in Korea later this year, and then will debut in Detroit in January.

    The main strengths of the new rear-wheel drive sedan are exclusive, luxury and distinctive design, best-in-class chassis system, premium level of driving and R&H performance, cutting-edge safety and convenience features.

    Hyundai’s design philosophy “Fluidic Sculpture” has evolved in this model and it will be the first one to adopt Fluidic Sculpture 2.0. The latter has some core elements: simple and harmonious design with refined fluidic design elements, modern Hyundai look with a singular hexagonal grille, easy-to-understand and pleasant design and rich visuotactile color, material and finishing of the car.

    Furthermore, the car exudes sporty and athletic stance, its single-frame premium hexagonal grille makes a bold front statement, while the fluidic and voluminous surfacing complete the side lines. At the rear we have high-tech, sculptural surface.

    The interior of the model complements the premium look of the exterior. It was only disclosed that it will feature premium materials and master craftsmanship-level finish. In addition, the Human Machine Interface (HMI) will be also included. It will let drivers intuitively recognize vehicle functions, allowing for more convenient and effective utilization of functions.

    In terms of safety, the 2015 Genesis Sedan has been significantly improved thanks to its new body structure and better rigidity. Its torsional and bending stiffness have been increased by the application of ultra-high-strength steel, hot-stamping and double-section structure on the front, partitioned engine room design as well as improved rear and center floor structures. Moreover, advanced seatbelt functions such as Emergency Fastening Device system (EFD) and Pre-Safe seatbelt contribute towards occupants’ safety.

    The performance of the car was also refined through improved suspension and application of various advanced technologies. For instance, the chassis has been improved via the lateral stiffness of the front and rear suspensions and the excellent weight balance.

    The use of electronic control suspension such as Advanced Traction Cornering Control (ATCC) enables greater stability in corners, while the Rack-mounted Motor Driven Electric Power Steering (R-MDPS) provides high-speed stability and direct response at low and medium speeds.

    Brand’s ‘HTRAC’ all-wheel drive system will be also offered in the 2015 Genesis Sedan. This system electronically controls torque split between the front and rear axles depending on road and driving conditions. The result is greater stability on slippery roads and in corners.
