Microsoft in-car infotainment system, currently known as Sync, will no longer be a Ford exclusive as it has licensed its technology to the Hyundai-Kia Automotive Group. Microsoft's Sync is a robust car infotainment system that connects many of your gadgets into one convenient and easy-to-use system. This allows MP3 players of all types and cellphones to seamlessly integrate into a car entertainment system. Microsoft had an exclusive partnership with Ford for Sync, but that contract is set to expire soon and Microsoft is already looking to expand its infotainment system by offering it to other manufacturers. Ford owns the rights to the name Sync, so it will undoubtedly be taking on another name for Hyundai and Kia. Hyundai and Kia's 2010 models will be the first to incorporate this tech

| Official photos of the Hyundai Genesis Coupe were leaked all over the Internet today |
| 2008-03-18 14:25:00 |
Hyundai showed off its Hyundai Genesis Sedan at the Detroit auto show. Although the cars are based on the same platform, the sedan gets a 4.6-liter V-8 where the coupe is limited to a 3.8-liter V-6. The automotive media showed a great deal of excitement over the new Hyundai Genesis platform when it was first announced, a fervor that leaves us baffled. All of the attention seems to be based on the fact that Genesis is Hyundai's first rear-wheel-drive car. Hyundai has shown great improvements in quality recently, and the company has started introducing modern gadgets, such as navigation, into its cars, so maybe there really is something to get excited about.Look for our coverage of the 2008 New York auto show starting on March 19.

| Korean offers stylish ride |
| 2008-02-29 20:02:00 |
he Hyundai's 16-valve diesel fires up with little drama, not too much indication from the cabin that there's a turbocharged oil-burning engine up front. Besides, a touch extra engine grumble is a small price to pay for Hyundai's claimed 4.7 litres per 100km. That figure would take some pretty careful driving but fuel consumption around 6 litres per 100km shouldn't be too hard for most drivers over mixed conditions. And with the i30 developed to European tastes, the diesel engine was always going to be a flexible, driveable machine. It needs a little extra throttle off the line, if no more than some small engined petrol cars out there.
