Hyundai future model line-up is getting a whole new look. The South Korean largest car-maker plans to introduce a range of new cars and crossover vehicles, spiced up with even more attractive exterior & interior design, enhanced engine technology and improved safety.

So let’s take a look at some of the forth-coming Hyundai models:

All-new Hyundai small car

Earlier this year Hyundai Motor India revealed that there is a brand-new mini-car in works at Hyundai’s Namyang R&D centre located in Korea. The unnamed mini-car will make its official premiere in the first half of 2011, with sales commencing in the second half of the year. In the first phase of launch, the new mini-car will be sold only in India, while later it will also appear on some other International markets.

Hyundai i10 facelift

Hyundai i10 is the entry-level vehicle in the automaker’s European line-up. The popular i10 minicar, which competes head to head against European rivals, such as Fiat Panda, Kia Picanto and Peugeot 107, is getting a mid-cycle facelift for the 2011 model year.

According to latest reports from sources close to Hyundai, the 2011 i10 will get a refreshed front fascia, slightly updated tail-lights and new entry-level 1.0L engine, which will slot in below existing 1.2L Kappa engine.

Next-generation Hyundai Accent

Hyundai already revealed its all-new Accent sub-compact car at the 2010 Busan Auto Show. The car has an eye-pleasing exterior design with many styling ques taken from the 2011 Sonata sedan. Engine line-up has not been confirmed yet, but we are expecting the 2011 Hyundai Accent to feature a 1.6L four-cylinder engine under its hood.

2011 Hyundai Elantra

Hyundai is all-set to officially unveil a completely redesigned Elantra compcat car in the USA. The 2011 Elantra is expected to make its official premiere at the 2010 L.A. auto show, which opens its doors in November this year. The all-new Elantra is a stunning compact sedan, which borrows many styling elements from recent Hyundai concept cars.

The all-new Elantra will be offered with Hyundai’s new 1.6L GDI four-cylinder engine, which is  10 percent more fuel efficient in comparison to its direct competitors. Mated to the six-speed automatic (or manual) gearbox, the engine develops 140 horsepower and 17.0 kg/m of torque. The 2011 Elantra will hit US showroom floor in spring next year.

Front-wheel-drive Veloster coupe

The long-awaited Tiburon replacement is Hyundai’s answer to edgy-looking Honda CR-Z. It’s scheduled to go on sale in the US-market in the first half of 2011. Hyundai is expected to take the wraps off its new entry-level sports car at the up-coming Paris Auto Show next month.

2011 Hyundai Genesis

For the 2011 model year, Hyundai Genesis will receive some styling tweaks. The refreshed Genesis sedan is going to look even more attractive thanks to a set of redesigned head-lamps, new signature grille and slightly updated front bumper.

2012 Hyundai Azera

It’s no secret that Hyundai engineers are also working hard on next-generation Azera near-luxury sedan. Codenamed HG, the 2012 Azera has recently been spotted testing on US soil, as well as in Korea.

The model will be built upon the same platform as its sister model from Kia Motors, the K7 sedan (known as Kia Cadenza in the USA). The all-new Azera will arrive to the States in the spring of 2012.

2012 Hyundai Santa Fe crossover

There are no spy shots of the 2012 Santa Fe available at this point. According to latest rumors, the all-new Hyundai Santa Fe is going to look sharper than the current model and will get a hybrid-electric powertrain.

2012/2013 Fuel-cell powered car, plug-in hybrid car

The automaker will begin serial mass production of a fuel cell-powered vehicle by the end of 2012. Production of Hyundai’s zero-emission vehicle will be limited to just 500 to 1.000 units for the first two years, though this number could be pushed as high as 10.000 units by the end of 2015.

A plug-in hybrid electric car is also in the works. It is expected to hit the market sometime in 2013.
