Key Ideas
  • Hyundai Motor Group is deploying 21 XCIENT heavy-duty hydrogen fuel cell trucks in Georgia to support sustainable logistics operations at their dedicated electric vehicle plant.
  • The use of XCIENT trucks with zero emissions and cleaner alternatives showcases Hyundai's commitment to environmental sustainability in freight logistics.
  • The deployment is part of Hyundai's larger initiative, HTWO, focusing on creating a closed-loop hydrogen logistics ecosystem for improved environmental sustainability.
  • Hyundai's XCIENT fuel cell trucks have been operating successfully in Europe and are set to make a significant impact on reducing emissions in North America.
Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America (HMGMA) is set to deploy 21 Hyundai XCIENT heavy-duty hydrogen fuel cell trucks in Georgia to enhance logistics operations at their dedicated electric vehicle plant. This initiative, in collaboration with Glovis America, aims to provide a sustainable transportation solution with zero emissions. The XCIENT trucks feature advanced fuel cell technology with a maximum range of 450 miles and contribute to reducing environmental impact in the automotive industry. HMGMA's commitment to sustainability is evident through the use of these trucks for milk runs to transport parts. The deployment aligns with Hyundai's larger strategy, including the launch of HTWO, a new hydrogen value chain business brand covering various stages of hydrogen fuel delivery. The introduction of a mobile hydrogen refueling station at the Metaplant by HTWO Logistics further emphasizes Hyundai's dedication to creating a closed-loop hydrogen logistics ecosystem. As Hyundai continues to expand its hydrogen fuel cell truck operations, the successful deployment in Europe and the upcoming operations in North America demonstrate the company's positive impact on environmental sustainability and innovation in the automotive sector.
