This is the i-Flow concept by Hyundai which is being shown at the Geneva Motor Show. This new concept belongs to the D-Segment vehicle class and is said to preview the European-replacement of the Sonata, meaning the eventual production model is expected to be sold only in Europe.

The production model is expected to hit European showrooms sometime in 2011. The concept that was designed at the company’s Russelsheim studio in Germany features Hyundai’s first diesel hybrid powertrain. It has a force-inducted 1.7 liter diesel linked to a lithium ion polymer battery pack as well as with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission.

Hyundai claims that the concept has a fuel consumption figure of 3 liters per 100 kilometers which is pretty impressive. An image gallery can be found after the jump.
