One of Hyundai’s latest eco-friendly cars, the Nexo, is a
hydrogen fuel cell-powered SUV that the company claims only emits
water and oxygen. To prove this fact, Hyundai España’s YouTube page
has posted a video where Olympic swimmer and brand ambassador
Mireia Belmonte runs in a bubble filled with the car’s
emissions.
With the promise of such an environmentally friendly
transportation option, we wonder why hasn’t the vehicle’s adoption
been guaranteed yet? Well, it turns out it is hampered by the lack
of proper fuel cell infrastructure.
While we wait for that infrastructure to take place, we
might as well enjoy this well-shot well-illustrated video. However,
be wary of trying this at home!
Despite the fact that Hyundai claims the vehicle only emits
water and 99.9 percent filtered oxygen, the firm still employed the
services of the Spanish National Centre on Hydrogen and a sports
medical center to make sure the video’s process was safe.
