Sales of Hyundai's second-generation hydrogen fuel cell SUV Nexo have passed 1,000 units so far this year. It is the first time Hyundai has reached the milestone since it started commercially manufacturing hydrogen fuel cell cars in 2013.

Hyundai said Sunday that a total of 1,075 Nexos were sold as of last week since the beginning of the year with 767 in the domestic market and 308 abroad.
