With fuel costs soaring, it’s the
wise auto manufacturer that investigates the possibilities for bringing
to market vehicles using alternative fuels. Hyundai is well down this
path, with the following types of vehicles all on the drawing board.
Fuel Cell-Powered Vehicle (FCEV)
Last year, we unveiled our second-generation fuel cell vehicle, the
Tucson FCEV, at the Greater Los Angeles Auto Show. The Tucson FCEV
has a driving range that is double that of Hyundai’s first-generation
vehicle, the Santa Fe FCEV. The Tucson FCEV is also one of the first
fuel cell vehicles capable of starting in freezing temperatures (in
tests, the vehicle has started up in temperatures reaching down to
minus-20 degrees Celsius).
Hyundai is developing a fleet of these vehicles, to operate out of
AC Transit of Oakland, California, Hyundai America Technical Center
and Southern California Edison, part of a five-year demonstration
and validation project designed to showcase practical applications
of hydrogen energy technology.
Solar Car
This pollution-free vehicle was developed by a team of researchers
at the company’s Passenger Car Development Research Institute
in Ulsan, Korea, working to complete development on the
vehicle.
Electric Hybrid Sport Utility Vehicle
The FGV-1 electric hybrid sport utility vehicle (SUV) is the newest
showcase of Hyundai’s advanced technology and forward-thinking
focus. The FGV-1, or Future Green Vehicle, reflects the depth of HMC’s
commitment to creating the next generation of low-pollution vehicles.

That we put every Hyundai through extremes?
Each model we design is tested over 100,000 miles to ensure a trouble-free
ownership experience. This is a grueling test under extreme conditions.
We test our vehicles so thoroughly that we can confidently offer a
100,000-mile warranty – something that few other carmakers offer
– not Honda, not Toyota. |
