How XCIENT Hydrogen System Works

Hydrogen Tank
FC System
Battery
Motor
Hydrogen tank

Hydrogen tank is the first place where hydrogen reaches when charged. Hydrogen, which starts from here, is converted into electricity through a fuel cell system.

Fuel Cell System

Fuel Cell System that generates the electricity to drive, is also called a 'tertiary battery'. This runs with hydrogen tank, to convert thermal energy into electrical energy.

Battery

Hyundai's lithium-ion polymer batteries have a lower memory sensitivity and excellent charge efficiency compared to conventional batteries.

Motor

A motor then converts the electricity produced in the fuel cell stacks and stored in the high-voltage battery to kinetic energy. Just like in hybrid and battery electric cars, a regenerative braking system moves electricity back to the battery when the driver uses the brakes, improving fuel economy.

Greater mileage

Over 400km in real-world conditions

You can drive XCIENT Fuel Cell confidently knowing it averages over 400 km on a single charge.

Higher efficiency

Fast and simple charging

With a short refueling time, XCIENT Fuel Cell can travel a long distance, providing the efficiency and flexibility that drivers demand.

Big savings

Eco- and cost-friendly

XCIENT Fuel Cell does not require urea and engine oil, which means lower operating costs.

Stress-free driving

Quieter daily driving

XCIENT Fuel Cell generates minimal levels of noise and vibration for smoother operation and reduced stress and fatigue.

Weight Distribution
Graphic Display
Front & Rear Air Suspension

The air-cushioned suspension maintains vehicle stability for improved ride comfort and allows the cargo bed height to be adjusted for easier loading and unloading.

Rear Axle Steering

Drop the tag axle to maximize your load carrying capacity or raise it for greater efficiency when transporting smaller loads. It also offers a short turning radius. (6x2)

Weight Distribution Graphic Display

This handy feature lets you keep an eye on the cargo weight distribution over your front and rear axles for safer transport.

Selectable Line-up

Flexbility added

With a choice of the 4x2 or 6x2, you can choose the model that best fits your business.

Lighter Weight

Extra operating capacity

The lighter cabin weight realizes increased cargo capacity and better driving efficiency.

Load More

For driver’s needs

Reductions in the cabin weight and new features that protect against overloading help facilitate maximum carrying capacity.

Hydrogen safety

Assured through testing

The hydrogen storage and delivery system is safe thanks to rigorous testing for open flame, ballistic penetration, and exposure to temperature extremes.

Satety Assistance on XCIENT

Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)

In slippery conditions, VDC provides optimal vehicle stability by detecting traction issues and managing torque at each wheel to help maintain directional control.

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)

FCA automatically applies the brakes whenever it detects the risk of a collision with a pedestrian, vehicle, or cyclist

Lane Departure Warning (LDW)

On detecting an unintentional lane departure, the system warns the driver by sending vibrations through the steering wheel.

Smart Cruise Control (SCC)
Easy Hill Start System (EHS)
Improved Crash Safety

For Driver’s Safety

Smart Cruise Control (SCC)

SCC maintains the speed preset by the driver and ensures that you are always a safe distance away from the vehicle ahead.

Easy Hill Start System (EHS)

EHS prevents the vehicle from rolling back when starting on steep slopes, providing safe and easy driving.

Improved crash safety

When the unavoidable does happen, power is automatically cut off to the high voltage cables, and the hydrogen tank is shut off to minimize the risk of electric shock and secondary events.
