Looking for an SUV that combines cutting-edge green technology, sleek style, and solid performance? The 2025 Hyundai Nexo, Hyundai’s flagship hydrogen fuel cell vehicle (FCEV), is here to shake up the eco-friendly driving game with bold improvements and practical usability. If you’re curious about how hydrogen-powered driving feels today, the Nexo offers a quiet, quick, and futuristic ride that’s surprisingly easy to live with.
Sleek and Spacious: A Modern SUV with a Clean Conscience
The 2025 Nexo carries a modern SUV profile that’s both aerodynamic and stylish. Measuring around 4,750 mm long with a 2,790 mm wheelbase, it offers a roomy cabin that fits five comfortably along with generous cargo space—up to 1,719 liters behind the front seats or nearly 1,000 liters with rear passengers aboard. The design subtly blends efficient aerodynamics with SUV ruggedness, sporting available 18 or 19-inch wheels, and offering an optional roof rack for extra adventure gear.
Inside, the Nexo impresses with advanced digital instrumentation, intuitive infotainment, and a comfortable, high-quality interior. It’s a tech lover’s dream, balancing futuristic touches and practical comfort with enough space for road trips and daily errands alike.
Hydrogen Power: Clean, Efficient, and Powerful
What makes the 2025 Hyundai Nexo stand out is its hydrogen fuel cell system, making it a zero-emission vehicle with only water vapor as its tailpipe output. The updated powertrain boosts the fuel cell stack power to 110 kW and pairs it with a powerful 150 kW electric motor generating 350 Nm of torque. This combination helps the Nexo accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in a quick 7.8 seconds—making it feel lively for an eco-friendly SUV.
The hydrogen storage system increased its capacity slightly to nearly 6.7 kg, which Hyundai says can push the Nexo’s driving range beyond 700 km (about 435 miles) on a single fill—comparable to many gasoline SUVs, and far ahead of most battery-electric vehicles. Refueling takes about five minutes, a major convenience over plug-in EV charging times, making long trips practical.
Smart Tech and Safety That Keeps You Covered
The Nexo is packed with Hyundai’s latest driver assistance tech, ensuring a safe and confident ride. Features include:
- Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist with pedestrian and cyclist detection
- Lane Keeping Assist and Lane Following Assist
- Blind-Spot Collision Avoidance
- Safe Exit Warning and Emergency Stop Assist
- High Beam Assist and Smart Cruise Control
- 360-degree Surround View Monitor and Remote Smart Parking Assist
The structure uses ultra-high-strength steel and advanced crash protection, earning top safety ratings worldwide. With up to nine airbags protecting occupants and the hydrogen tank, safety feels comprehensive.
Comfortable and Customizable Drive Modes
Drivers can choose from three modes—Normal, Eco, and Eco+—to optimize performance or efficiency as needed. The Nexo’s single-speed reduction gear transmission provides smooth, silent power delivery typical of electric vehicles while the front-wheel-drive setup keeps handling both intuitive and confident.
