Cars fueled by hydrogen? It sounds like something from the future, but for Hyundai, it has been happening for more than a decade. In fact, Hyundai is considered the leader in hydrogen powered vehicles with the first ever mass produced hydrogen fuel cell heavy duty truck, and the only car manufacturer to have both a hydrogen fuel cell truck and SUV. That SUV is called the Hyundai NEXO.
Designed for a Sustainable Future
Hyundai designed the hydrogen fueled NEXO SUV with sustainability as a top priority both under the bonnet and on the inside. This futuristic inspiration is showcased throughout the modern and luxurious interior with UL certified bio-materials used for the trim, soft skin, floor mats, and headliner of this 5-passenger vehicle.
State of the art technology continues this futuristic SUV with the 12.3” colour touchscreen displays navigation, premium sound system, digital information cluster, and wireless charging.
Designed with Sustaining Technology
Hyundai didn’t just create the NEXO to care for the environment, it was also created to care for you. With Hyundai’s SmartSense and the cutting-edge Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), the NEXO works for you with intuitive sensing to keep you safe on the road. This includesl; Lane Following Assist, Blind-Spot Collision Warning, Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning, and even Remote Smart Parking Assist where you literally park your car at the push of a button as you watch from the sidewalk. All of this combined makes the Hyundai NEXO one of the most intelligent vehicles ever produced.
Designed for Sustained Safety
If you are concerned about the safety of hydrogen, don’t worry Hyundai has got you covered on that too. The hydrogen fuel cell engines have been put through the most vigorous tests available meeting ISO standards, a standard that is higher than the aerospace industry. The three tanks that hold the hydrogen are more than one inch thick and made from multi-layered carbon fiber material making them impact and fire resistant. Testing even included having a 50-caliber bullet flying at it. Impressively strong.
Hydrogen is the lightest, most abundant and oldest element in the universe. It is both the future and the past. Moving forward with hydro-technology is the most logical next step. Be part of this innovative piece of history.
