Hyundai Unveils 2010 i30 iBlue Cars at Geneva Auto Show

by Brian Yalung on Monday, February 16th, 2009

Hyundai has unveiled another green vehicle in the 2010 i30 iBlue which combines existing technologies in innovative ways to show what can be done to make a green car today.

By increasing motor efficiency, reducing driveline friction, focusing on aerodynamics, including stop-start ignition, employing low-rolling-resistance tires and lowering the suspension, the i-blue treatment ekes every last bit of efficiency out of the available framework.

The new model will feature an engine stop-start system from Germanys Bosch, which uses an advanced starter motor connected to the ECU. It is joined by low-rolling resistance tires and a few aerodynamic enhancements. The end result is a 15% reduction in fuel consumption in city driving and a 7% reduction on the highway compared with the standard i30.
