Hyundai Tucson Fuel Cell Drivers Accumulate More Than Three Million Zero-Emission Miles By National Hydrogen Day

Justin Lewis

On October 6, Hyundai announced that drivers of its Tuscon Fuel Cell vehicle have accumulated over 3 million miles of zero-emissions miles on California roads, since the car was first introduced there in 2014.

According to Hyundai, drivers of more than 150 Tuscon vehicles delivered in California have replaced approximately 1,140 tons of CO2 emissions that would have been emitted by fossil fuel cars of similar size and capability. 

"Breaking the three- million-mile consumer mileage barrier gives us greater vision into the unlimited zero-emissions potential for Hyundai's fuel cell vehicles," said Mike O'Brien, vice president, product, corporate and digital planning, Hyundai Motor America. "With our growing consumer fleet of hydrogen-powered Tucson fuel cells accumulating miles and thus reducing corresponding emissions, we're excited to help fulfill the unlimited potential for a zero-emissions hydrogen vehicle future."
