Despite the number of the hybrid vehicles introduced over the last dozen years or so, none have really been able to take too big of a bite out of the sales figures for the poster child of hybrids, the Toyota Prius. Hyundai looks to change all of that soon by launching its own dedicated hybrid hatchback, which was recently spied on the back of a car hauler heading to the Arctic Circle for extreme cold-weather testing. Not many details are known about this new model, but seeing the undercarriage reveals the telltale orange cables associated with a gasoline-electric hybrid vehicle.
Although this unnamed model will debut for the 2017 model year as a parallel hybrid hatchback, the lineup (like the Prius) is also expected to grow to include a plug-in hybrid model and different body styles.
