(Hyundai)

The Blue-Will, which made its U.S. debut at the Detroit auto show in January, is the company's first plug-in hybrid. It has a 152-horsepower engine and a 100-kilowatt electric motor, which can work together or separately as conditions demand. The car can go up to 40 miles on an electric charge. It has a glass roof with solar cells that can recharge batteries and a generator that converts hot exhaust gases into electricity.
