[IL]

Hyundai's Prius fighter, which was previewed two years ago in the Hyundai Blue-Will Concept, is bound for production, as the Korean automaker confirms that it will roll out two more 40-mpg cars in the "next couple years." Hyundai will not provide any details on the other 40-mpg car it has in the hopper, but it hinted to Inside Line that it uses a conventional internal-combustion engine. Hyundai also issued a statement today confirming that the 2012 Hyundai Veloster will "be priced below the Honda CR-Z hybrid."
