History
changeThe Hyundai Xcient was presented at the 2013 Seoul Motor Show, as a new model in Hyundai’s truck lineup. It was developed to meet the growing demand for more sustainable and efficient commercial vehicles. In 2020, Hyundai, in collaboration with H2 Energy, began mass production of the hydrogen-powered version of the Xcient,[6] a 34-ton cargo truck.
Hydrogen Version
changeThe Hyundai Xcient hydrogen-powered truck uses a hydrogen fuel cell system that allows it to travel up to 400 kilometers (250 miles) on a full tank of hydrogen. The refueling time is between 8 to 20 minutes.
Markets
changeThe Hyundai Xcient is sold mainly in South Korea while the hydrogen version is sold worldwide and in Switzerland 1,600 units are expected to be shipped by 2025. In 2021, 140 units of the new model were delivered, along with 46 units of the older model.[7]
