Our goal is to develop a next -
generation hybrid drive system smaller in size and lighter in weight, offering improved overall
fuel economy, better acceleration, and longer all -
electric range — all while maintaining a short charging time.
An aluminum / magnesium engine block (again, exclusive to BMW), hollow camshafts, plastic camshaft cover, improved combustion chambers, a further evolved Double VANOS, higher
fuel injection pressure, sophisticated engine electronics, an
electric coolant pump, a variable - volume oil pump and an oil / coolant heat exchanger are the other weight - saving features and improvements of this engine over previous
generations.
[91][93] The Prime has an EPA - rated all -
electric range of 25 mi (40 km), over twice the range of the first
generation model, and an EPA rated
fuel economy of 133 mpg ‑ e (25.9 kW ⋅ h / 100 mi) in all -

For the rest of us, Hyundai did a good job at Geneva with a wide range of offerings, from the Le Fil Rouge concept that showcases the company's next design language, through the Santa Fe midsize SUV — which may have the industry's best array of standard safety features, including blind spot detection — through extensions of the line such as the
electric Kona and Nexo second -
generation fuel cell vehicle.
Sleek and aerodynamic, the Concept points to the potential styling direction of Honda's next -
generation fuel cell
electric vehicle which launches in the U.S. and Japan in 2015, followed by Europe.
Honda also announced that the platform underpinning the Clarity
Fuel Cell will also serve as the foundation for a next -
