Hyundai Unveils Second-Generation Nexo Fuel-Cell SUV With 826-Km WLTP Range

Hyundai casts the long-range Nexo as a technology flagship despite Europe’s scarce, pricey hydrogen network.

Overview

  • Certified figures show a 190 kW system with a 110 kW fuel cell, a 150 kW front motor, an 80 kW/2.64 kWh buffer battery, and three tanks holding up to 6.7 kg of hydrogen for refueling in about five minutes.
  • Utility additions include Vehicle-to-Load capability for external power and a towing rating of up to 1,000 kilograms.
  • Safety upgrades for the hydrogen system include improved tank valves, added leak detection, and optimized fire protection.
  • Hyundai targets a Korea market start at the end of 2025 with other markets following in 2026, and reporting places the price near €68,000.
  • Coverage highlights market headwinds in Germany, with roughly 80 public stations now operating versus about 100 previously and hydrogen priced around €15–18 per kilogram.
