Eco Factor: Concept car designed to be powered by a hybrid engine for low-emissions.
Hyundai has unveiled the 2010 IX-Metro concept car at Design Korea in Songdo Convensia held in Incheon City, Korea. The low-emission car runs on a hybrid engine and produces just 80gm of CO2 for each kilometer the vehicle is driven.
The vehicle features a hybridized powertrain capable of 93KW at 6000rpm, which includes a fuel-efficient 1-liter, three-cylinder petrol engine that maximizes output while minimizing fuel consumption. The gas engine is supplemented by an electric drive which is powered by a starter motor-alternator with power stored in an ultra-capacitor.
