HYUNDAI NEXO HYDROGEN CAR STEALS DISTANCE DRIVING RECORD FROM THE FRENCH

EV Channels Review

This video details a significant long-distance driving record set by the Hyundai Nexo hydrogen fuel cell car in Australia, covering 887.5 kilometers on a single fill. The reviewer, John Cadogan, highlights the Nexo's efficiency, noting its consumption of 6.27kg of hydrogen at a rate of 0.706kg/100km, and its unique air purification capability. While acknowledging the impressive range and the potential of hydrogen technology, Cadogan's primary critique centers on the severe lack of refueling infrastructure in Australia, which he identifies as the fundamental barrier to widespread adoption. He also emphasizes the importance of 'green' hydrogen production via renewable electricity, contrasting it with less sustainable methods derived from methane. The review concludes with a call for Hyundai to establish an off-grid hydrogen refueler to demonstrate the technology's viability and encourage broader adoption.
