Empire Hyundai, Inc.
History
The world's largest automobile manufacturing plant in Ulsan, South Korea, produces over 1.6 million vehicles annually.
Chung Ju-Yung founded the Hyundai Engineering and Construction Company in 1947. Hyundai Motor Company was later established in 1967. The company's first model, the Cortina, was released in cooperation with Ford Motor Company in 1968. In 1975, the Pony, the first Korean car, was released, with styling by Giorgio Giugiaro of ItalDesign and powertrain technology provided by Japan's Mitsubishi Motors. Exports began in the following year to Ecuador and soon thereafter to the Benelux countries. In 1991, the company succeeded in developing its first proprietary gasoline engine, the four-cylinder Alpha, and transmission, thus paving the way for technological independence.


The MVi-spec coupé version won particular praise for its handling agility in the UK. Although the Accent was cheap to buy and insure, its engines were quite thirsty; the 1.5-litre returned 33 mpg-imp (8.6 L/100 km; 27 mpg-US) average according to list figures.
Though manuals exist for Accents before and after 1999, a manual for 1999 Hyundai Accent has not been published. Additionally, owners of the 1999 model were informed by their dealers that the power output of the 1.5 L engine was in fact rated at 88 horsepower (66 kW).
In 1999, Jeremy Clarkson used a Hyundai Accent in a banger race, competing against Tiff Needell amongst other competitors, in his video Head to Head. After the race, Clarkson had the Accent crushed in a junkyard.

Empire Hyundai Home :The Hyundai Blue Will plug-in hybrid has made its U.S. debut at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit 2010.
At the 2010 Geneva Motor Show, Hyundai unveiled the i-flow Concept, a concept car using a variant of the BLUE-WILL hybrid system. The i-flow Concept uses a 1.7-liter twin-turbo diesel engine along with electric batteries to achieve fuel economy of 3 liters per 100 km (78 mpg.) Hyundai says a production car based on the i-flow's design will be in production by 2011.
