The unveiling of the new generation Hyundai Nexo during the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas signals the Korean manufacturer’s commitment to a sustainable and diversified future for transportation.
Scheduled for release in 2025, the new Nexo isn’t just another car; it’s a testament to Hyundai’s bold vision. In addition to passenger vehicles, Hyundai aims to extend its hydrogen footprint to trucks, ships, and trams, challenging the conventional dominance of plug-in electric cars.
Hyundai’s dedication to hydrogen doesn’t stop at vehicles. The Korean brand is pioneering hydrogen production through innovative methods. The Waste-to-Hydrogen (W2H) initiative involves fermenting organic waste, such as food, sludge, and animal manure, to produce biogas, subsequently used for hydrogen production. In a parallel endeavor, the Plastic-to-Hydrogen (P2H) process transforms non-recyclable waste plastic into hydrogen, further contributing to sustainable fuel production.
While details about the new Nexo are yet to be revealed, Hyundai’s multifaceted approach to hydrogen technology positions them as trailblazers in the green energy landscape. For those intrigued by the latest developments, Hyundai’s commitment to a hydrogen-powered future offers an exciting alternative to the electric mainstream.
Autovisie, having driven the hydrogen-powered Hyundai Nexo in 2018, has provided an insightful glimpse into the potential of this unique vehicle. As the automotive industry navigates the future, Hyundai’s Nexo emerges as a pioneer in the hydrogen mobility space, inviting us to reimagine a cleaner, more sustainable era of transportation.
