The eDreams Mitja Marató de Barcelona (10th February) and Zurich Marató Barcelona (10th March) are set to become the first races in the world with a hydrogen-powered official car. As the official car of these races, the Hyundai NEXO will supercharge their sustainability and environmental credentials It emits nothing but water vapour and cleans the air as it drives, enhancing the performance of the runners during the race.
Hyundai broke new ground when it brought its ix35 Fuel Cell into mass production in 2013, beating all other manufacturers to the punch. The Korean maker has since been at the forefront of sustainable mobility. Its range of electric vehicles is the widest on the market and spans all eco-friendly technologies.
The NEXO is the first hydrogen-powered SUV and has an estimated range of 666 kilometres (on the WLTP cycle). It represents the flagship of Hyundai's efforts to develop environmentally friendly technologies.
The NEXO has been chosen as the official car of these sports events because it emits nothing but water vapour and cleans the air as it drives. It is the perfect model to support thousands of runners in the eDreams Mitja Marató and Zurich Marató Barcelona.
