2023 Nexo Fuel Cell Review

The typical electric car is averaging between 220 and 320 in range. By comparison, the 2023 Hyundai Nexo electric range is 380 miles. Like the 2022 Hyundai Nexo, it’s also not a car that you plug in. You can value your trade to see how much cash you have toward a new Hyundai.

To get its power, the Nexo is plugged in at a hydrogen filling station. Hydrogen cars are called FCEV or fuel cell electric vehicles. These don’t need electricity because hydrogen provides the spark that generates power for the electric motors. That’s what you call really disconnecting from the coal-fired electric grid!

With the slightly heavier and better equipped Nexo Limited, the electric range is 354 miles. That’s still excellent for an all-electric vehicle. Plus you’ll be free from worries about fuel economy and the prices at the gas pump.

Since its early days for the Nexo, shoppers should investigate government tax credits. This can entitle you to up to $7,500. Likewise, there are often good financing options from the manufacturer, available through our dealership. Furthermore, Nexo models come with three years of free hydrogen refills.

Of course, these hydrogen stations are still somewhat limited, and that’s why the Nexo is currently being sold in California rather than Arizona. If you live in Arizona, the Tucson Hybrid is a good way to go green.

The plug-in Tucson Hybrid goes 33 miles on its electric charge. Then its hybrid engine takes over, offering about 80 MPGe. Why not schedule a test drive at a convenient time for your schedule?

When it comes to size, the 2023 Hyundai Tucson, which is reviewed here, is very similar to the Nexo. Therefore, as far as electric vehicles go, this one has some size advantages.

Namely, the rear seats offer 38.6 inches of legroom. That’s considerable for a compact crossover, and it is one of the reasons that both the Nexo and the Tucson Hybrid are popular with shoppers who are trying to go green.

A Nexo has 29.6 cubic feet of cargo space and can expand that to 56.5 cubic feet. This is where it is a bit smaller than the Tucson Hybrid, which can offer 39 cubic feet of cargo space.

The Nexo doesn’t look like a crossover in some ways, and that’s deception since this hydrogen car is definitely an SUV both in capability and utility.

Aerodynamics were top of mind during its crafting, and the final result is sleek and futuristic. Hyundai tucked the wipers up front and on the rear window, making it seem as if the vehicle doesn’t have them. Even more fun, it has flush-fitting door handles. These pop out when you need them.

The Nexo comes in two trim levels including the standard Nexo and the Nexo Limited. Standard features include a lush cabin with sustainable Vegan leather on the seats. Shoppers have a choice of several color schemes.

Drivers enjoy push button start and a large 10.25-inch driver information center behind the steering wheel. Front seats are 8-way power chairs with power-heat capability.

The dash hosts a 12.3-inch touchscreen with ample connectivity. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are standards. This smart ride naturally has a wireless charger as well as dual USB ports.

Hyundai rewards shoppers with a 3-year subscription to the brand’s remote services. This allows you to utilize an app as a remote starter. It includes automatic collision notification and a roadside assistance button.

You can utilize geo-fencing for teen drivers or an alert system for valet parking. When you need to update your systems, this gives you access to automatic over-the-air updates.

The most luxurious trim level is the Limited. With its panoramic sunroof overhead, the cabin is clearly a step above the rest. The front seats have power-ventilation, always a must for our Phoenix AZ climate.

Drivers enjoy more assets such as rain-sensing wipers and a heated steering wheel. Utility extras include the powered tailgate and roof rails.

All of today’s Hyundais have excellent driver assistance features as well as good safety records. The blind spot view monitor is an actual camera system with live footage. A remote smart parking assist can put the Hyundai into its parking space while the driver watches from the curb.

Every year the forward collision system is getting more sophisticated. It can watch for stopping cars, pedestrians, cyclists, and more. It may trigger an emergency autobrake. Naturally it works well with the adaptive cruise control system.
