Go Green, Go with the Hyundai i-flow

Chris — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 17:35:51 +0000

Hyundai’s latest eco-friendly concept vehicle is being revealed this week at the Geneva auto show.
The aerodynamic i-flow, with a look that has been described as “fluidic sculpture,” is scheduled to go on sale in Europe in next year.

The i-flow’s features an adaptive front spoiler and side rocker blade, jewel-like headlamps and tail lamps and Hyundai’s hexagonal grille.

But it’s what’s under the hood — and on the roof — that takes the vehicle to a deeper shade of “green.” The i-flow has a diesel-hybrid powertrain, which includes two-stage turbocharging for the 1.7-liter engine that works with a lithium-ion-polymer battery and a six-speed, dual-clutch transmission.

The i-flow also has solar panels on the roof and a thermo-electric generator that recovers energy.

Hyundai Remedys World’s Worst Parking Job

Chris — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 14:00:58 +0000

Todd Jamison’s 2004 Hyundai Elantra was recently the victim of the world’s worst parking job. More than 1.5 million people have watched a BMV X5 driver perform the worst parking job ever by hitting the gas instead of the brake. The driver ended up driving on top to two other cars and crushing them. One of them was Jamison’s Elantra, which he had just finished paying off a month before the incident.

To make up for his misfortune Hyundai gave Jamison a brand new Hyundai Elantra Touring.

Chrysler’s Dodge brand earned above average scores in J.D. Power’s latest car owner satisfaction survey — a surprise, considering Chrysler hasn’t done so well in year’s past.

Another surprise: Hyundai, which beat out higher-priced mid-sized luxury cars from BMW and Jaguar.

J.D. Power’s APEAL (Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout) survey polled 80,000 new car buyers, after 90 days of ownership, asking them to rate as many as 90 different features of their vehicles.

The new Dodge Challenger was named the most-favored mid-size sporty car.
