Spy photographers have recently caught several Elantra GT mules testing what looks like a new hybrid powertrain. AutoGuide is reporting that four mules were recently spied testing with different body modifications, which provides some proof that a new hybrid model is in the works, instead of an Elantra hybrid.

There’s also some proof that Hyundai may also be working on two versions of a new hybrid model, with one set to compete with the standard Toyota Prius, while a larger one will go head to head with the larger Prius V.
Not much else is known, but back in 2010 Hyundai did preview a Prius fighter with the Blue-Will concept.
