-blue Package Content:
While the individual models differ in the exact combination of i-blue features, the overall package comprises advances in drag reduction, increased engine and transmission efficiency, and chassis fine-tuning.
Aerodynamic Improvements:
To achieve a major (up to 10%) reduction in Cd drag coefficient, the i-blue package includes:
∑ Vehicle specific full under-floor streamlining
∑ Aerodynamically optimized wheel housings, front and rear
∑ Optimized front air intake and rear spoiler
Powertrain
Elements that combine to achieve a major reduction in fuel consumption include:
∑ Increasing the inner motor efficiency by reducing driveline friction, using low friction oil, and optimizing the cooling system
∑ Changing the engine software control. For example, controlling injection pressure and engine cycle timing, along with enhanced exhaust re-treatment rates, and lowering the engine idling speed
∑ Fitting an ECU controlled gear change indicator (shift indicator)
∑ Adopting the Bosch Start & Stop system (incl. intelligent generator)
Chassis
In order to maximize both aerodynamic and fuel efficiency gains, the chassis will be further fine-tuned. Changes include:
∑ Suspension lowered by circa 15-20mm
∑ Adoption of very low resistance Michelin tires (i30: 205/55 R16) with increased tyre pressure
Transmission
Hyundai research has shown that changing from a 5 to a 6-speed gearbox and extending the top three ratios delivers a significant reduction in engine speeds with a corresponding reduction in consumption and emissions. Changes include:
∑ Replacing 5-speed with 6-speed manual gearboxes
∑ Extending the ratios of the top three gears
∑ Mounting the shift indicator directly in the instrument display
i-blue Vehicle Range
i30 blue
With the 90PS new 1.6CRDi diesel engine, the i30 5-door emits an impressively low 125 g/km CO2. With the i-blue package, this is reduced by 15.2% lowering the CO2 emissions to just 106g/km. Naturally, this percentile reduction is also reflected in reduced fuel consumption.
i10 blue
Introduced in 2007, the i10 brought a new sophistication to the entry level of the Hyundai range. The highly economic 75PS new 1.1CRDi 5-door already has a very low emission level of just 114 g/km CO2. With the essential elements of the i-blue package, this can be reduced to just 95 g/km. A meaningful 17% reduction.
i10 blue CNG
The ultimate solution of an ecologically optimized vehicle however is achieved through the bivalent combination of the newly developed 0.8L 3-cylinder turbocharged engine (98PS) and a CNG application. In this package, the i10 blue CNG reaches class leading level of just 65g/km CO2.
