Hyundai Blue-Will is the first dedicated plug-in petrol-electric vehicle designed by Hyundai Motor Company. The vehicle is a concept car that has debuted at the 2009 Seoul motor show in Korea, the 2010 Detroit Auto Show, and most recently the 2010 Sydney Motor Show.[1] The Blue-Will uses a strong parallel hybrid system, meaning it's capable of driving the vehicle under electric power alone, using the internal combustion, or a combination of both. The first production applications from this vehicle will find their way into the Korean market's Hyundai Elantra LPI Hybrid and the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid that debut late in 2010.[2] The Blue-Will is code-named HND-4 and is the fourth concept vehicle from Hyundai's Namyang Design Center. Hyundai has not specifically announced plans to make the concept into a production model, but they did say the company's concepts are directly linked to real-world plans.[3]


Engine

The car can run solely on its lithium polymer battery for a range of 20 to 40 miles Like the Toyota Prius, perhaps the best-known hybrid car, the Blue-Will has an engine that's directly connected to the drive wheels and that runs in parallel with the electric motor. [4]

however, instead of an LPG engine, the electric motor is matched with Hyundai’s all-alloy 113kW 1.6-litre direct-injection GDI petrol engine.[1]

It also employs solar panels mounted in its panoramic roof to trickle-charge a cabin cooling fan that, like the Prius, can cool the cabin while the vehicle is parked.[5]
