Hyundai Plans To Enter Hybrid Market

We recently looked into how Hyundai would perform in a weak U.S. economy, and the only negative we had was Hyundai’s lack of a hybrid.

Well, that’s about to change.

Expect a Hyundai hybrid in 2010 in the form of an Avante or Elantra.

Hyundai Chairman Chung Mong Koo stated, “The importance of developing futuristic, environmentally-friendly cars is increasing for sustainable growth, therefore, technology for advanced cars, like the hybrid, is imperative. We also plan to produce a small fleet of fuel cell electric vehicles from 2012.”

Hopefully by then the economy will no longer be an issue anyway.
