The i-Blue is Hyundai's first-ever model designed from the ground up to incorporate fuel cell technology. According to the company, the i-Blue signifies a major step towards the commercialization of Hyundai fuel cell vehicles. Unlike its predecessors which were built on SUV platforms, the i-Blue features a new 2+2 crossover utility vehicle (CUV) body type.

Hyundai is making efforts to reach mass production of hydrogen-powered fuel cell vehicles a reality in the next decade.

The i-Blue Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle was developed at Hyundai's Design and Technical Center in Chiba, Japan. Its all-new i-Blue platform is tailored to incorporate Hyundai's third-generation fuel cell technology, currently being developed at Hyundai's Eco-Technology Research Institute in Mabuk, Korea.
