Hey, great! At least automakers aren’t teasing us any more with the cars that they’d be bringing to the Paris Motor Show next month. Here we have Hyundai making a consolidated statement on which cars they’d be bringing to the City of Lights. Just a quick round-up: the i20, i20 i-blue Concept, ix55 SUV & Santa Fe Hybrid.

The i20 is slated to replace the Getz in the HYundai fleet. It’s slightly larger than the Getz and would get a chrome-topped grille and headlights in the same teardrop tune as the i10 and i30. The i20 will be used to penetrate the European sub-compact market.

And, together with this production version, Hyundai will also be featuring an i20 i-blue concept - their take on the fast-growing eco sub-compacts. The i-blue version is slated to get 68 mpg and belch just 99 grams/km of C02 thanks to a greenified 90 hp 1.4 CRD diesel mated to a 6-speed transmission which, apparently helps fuel economy over the standard 5-speed one.

The i20 i-blue isn’t the only green vehicle they’d be featuring as they’ve also decided to give their Santa Fe crossover SUV a green twist. Though, in my book, SUV and green really don’t go together. Still, Hyundai developed an electric motor to go along with the Santa Fe’s 2.4L gas engine. With that, the car can get a very decent 44 mpg.

Last in Hyundai’s Paris lineup is the ix55 SUV which is largely based on the US-market Veracruz but gets some Euro styling. No other details on the ix55 just yet but we can expect Hyundai to give more details as the show looms.
