    Hyundai Motor Co. and affiliate Kia Motors Corp. have moved up their schedule for introducing hybrid cars to the United States. They now expect to do so by late next year, a Hyundai executive says.

    "Probably in the second half of next year you will see some hybrid models for overseas, mainly the United States,"

    If the Accent and Rio are their first models, it will be interesting to see the price point.
