Hyundai teased the Intrado concept car which it plans to unveil at the Geneva Motor Show in 2014. The car will be a showcase for Hyundai’s updated design language called the Fluidic Sculpture 2.0.

Hyundai says that the car is built around a super-light structure made from advanced composite materials which can be joined together using a revolutionary new technique. The Intrado will be powered by an advanced hydrogen fuel cell powertrain which is smaller and less heavy than the one powering the current ix35 fuel cell car.

The concept was designed and engineered at Hyundai Motors European R&D in Germany under the codename, HED-9 (Hyundai Europe Design). The Intrado name is derived from the underside of an aircraft’s wing producing lift and enabling flight. The concept also takes inspiration from the aircrafts for use of advanced composite materials which help to reduce unnecessary weight, and a highly efficient drivetrain.

More will be revealed soon.
