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.

Its smooth surface treatment extends to the undercarriage, where a full-length cover has been fitted to minimize aerodynamic drag helping maximize fuel economy.

Also helping to maximize fuel economy, carbon-fiber reinforced plastics and nanocomposites were applied to the side sills, moldings, and fenders to reduce weight.

[5] Designers were able to redefine the interior of the compact car achieving a "digital flow" throughout the inside due to rapid advances in information technologies.

The conventional gauge cluster was replaced with an extremely thin Transparent Organic Light Emitting Diode (LED) display mounted on the steering column which can be adjusted for distance and angle.

The screen operates climate controls, infotainment and drive mode systems, Bluetooth speakers, and the Eco-Coach which is the focal point of the display.

This type of hybrid technology allows the internal combustion engine, the electric motor, and gear box to be coupled by automatically controlled clutches.

Hyundai doesn't say how big the lithium polymer battery pack is, but the automaker says the Blue-Will will be able to run up to 40 miles on a single electric charge.
