Hyundai preparing the first hybrid able to run on liquid petroleum gas

The South Korean carmaker Hyundai is prepping to introduce the first in the world hybrid vehicle powered by advanced lithium-polymer batteries and is able to run on liquid petroleum gas (LPG), but the carmaker is already having its sights on the next-generation of plug-in hybrid transports.

Hyundai, currently the fifth-largest carmaker in partnership with its Kia subsidiary, is making steps to make a product line that mirrors its position among the top auto manufacturers in the world. It was now confirmed by Yang Woong-chul, company president, that a production model of the Blue-Will plug-in hybrid concept will hit US markets near the end of 2010. Hyundai hopes to rival cars the likes of the Chevrolet Volt and the impending Prius plug-in hybrid by Toyota, aiming to become the leader of fuel economy and alternative fuels in the world.
