Although you refuel them with hydrogen, fuel cell vehicles are actually powered by an electric motor. The hydrogen in the fuel tanks travels to the fuel-cell stack. Inside the stack, the hydrogen undergoes an electrochemical reaction with oxygen that’s collected through the air intake. This process generates electricity which either directly powers the motor or is stored in the battery for future use.
Fueling NEXO Fuel Cell is as easy as pumping gas. And in 5 minutes or less of refueling, you have enough range to drive from L.A. to San Francisco nonstop—all with zero emissions.

Despite public misconception, hydrogen energy is quite safe, even safer than other fuels. It’s one reason why Hyundai has been committed to fuel cell vehicles for over 20 years. To ensure the utmost safety, hydrogen fuel is stored inside highly durable carbon-fiber tanks tested to withstand extreme heat and collisions. Plus, hydrogen is the lightest element, so even if it leaks from the tank it disperses quickly into the air, making the chances of a fire very low.
When you're going in reverse, it lets you know if its sensors detect a vehicle approaching from the left or right. It will even apply the brakes automatically if needed.
