Although Hyundai officials all but decline to talk about the competition by name, the automaker clearly has its eyes dead set on dethroning Toyota's Prius as America's eco-drive darling. The empirical evidence? The Korean automaker has just announced that its Ioniq Hybrid Blue will come to market early next year with an EPA-estimated 57 miles per gallon city, 59 highway and a combined mileage rating of 58. Those figures best the Toyota Prius Eco's 58 mpg city, 53 highway and 56 combined, and should be enough to make the Ioniq Hybrid the most fuel-efficient car sold in America without a plug.
