Seeing as this is effectively their hometown auto show, Hyundai was out in full force at the Seoul Motor Show with a host of new offerings. One concept that the Korean automaker brought was the Blue2 Sedan Concept, a car that the Korean automaker is pegging as the next generation FCEV sedan. The car bears the codename HND-6 and is being touted as Hyundai’s very first Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle that’s powered by hydrogen and is capable of delivering 90kW – around 120 horsepower – and estimated fuel economy figures reaching an impressive 82 miles per gallon. Aesthetically speaking, the Blue2 Sedan Concept has an exterior whose design language is being described as ‘Intersected Flow’ with other external features complementing the contoured form of the car, including the LCD screen panels on both the front and back, side cameras in place of the standard side mirrors, a roof camera, and automatic opening doors. Inside, the Blue2 Concept features an asymmetrical dashboard, wider seats to make room for a spacious interior cabin, and a couple of out-of-this-world features, including what the company is describing as a Transparent Organic Light Emitting Diode (TOLED) monitor that has been officially christened the Gorilla Glass. This monitor appears more accurate and vivid compared to standard LED screens. Another unique feature is the Motion Sensor Moustick, a haptic wheel and motion sensor that respond to the driver’s touch and hand movements, giving drivers a new experience. .

 Well, it’s just too bad that this one is going to be nothing more than purely a concept. And some of the elements here are not likely going to make it to production.
 I am actually liking the whole asymmetrical dashboard concept, it actually makes the interior more we organized, as well as make it more manageable for the driver.
 This one is actually looking good as a concept. Too bad though that only a few aspects of these would actually make it into the cars.
 Aesthetically, I do admit that this car has an impressive outline. However, when it comes to engine performance, i think its kind of disappointing, because in the first place, I have a doubt on the reliability of electric cars.
 Well, since this one is a concept, we can be pretty sure that not all the things that you see here would be implemented in future models. But I am already starting to see the ones that are a must.
 Wow, I actually like the way they did this one. The front is simply very unique and makes the whole car stand out. Too bad that it is still just a concept.
