Hyundai ix35 Fuel Cell drivers have now accumulated more than two million miles on the roads of Southern and Northern California. Fuel cell technology combines hydrogen fuel with oxygen found in the air to produce electricity, heat, and water. As they only emit water vapour, these cars have replaced approximately 760 tons of CO2 emissions that would otherwise have been emitted by vehicles of similar size and capability.

This marks a new threshold for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles in the USA, achieved in time for Earth Day 2017, and offers a glimpse of what a zero-emission society could look like. This vision of a future ‘Hydrogen Society’ is among Hyundai Motor’s goals to develop transportation that is clean, efficient, and enhances people’s everyday lives.

Hyundai has delivered more than 140 Fuel Cell crossovers since its introduction as the first mass-produced fuel cell in the U.S. market in 2014. Meanwhile, there are almost 500 ix35 Fuel Cell vehicles on European roads in 13 countries.
