1998 Hyundai Euro 1 Concept

The Euro 1 concept made its UK debut at the 1998 Birmingham Motor Show. As its name implies, the two-seater was conceived, designed and built in Europe. The car features a six-speed clutchless transmission contolled by a twist-grip integrated into the steering column and an electroinic 'Fly by wire' throttle. Another novel innovation is a small hydraulically operated windscreen which raises just enough to deflect air over the occupants' heads.
