Hyundai has revealed its Vision FK hydrogen-hybrid sports automobile concept in disguised form at its Hydrogen Wave conference, previewing a production version of a sporty hydrogen-fuelled model.
As part of the brand’s future technique to accelerate the uptake of hydrogen fuel mobility to 2040, the Vision FK is a 670bhp concept with a sub-four-second 0-62mph acceleration time that Hyundai claims provides a range of much more than 372 miles.

It follows Hyundai’s recent commitment to make all of its cars in Europe fully electric by 2035 and is a part of a larger commitment that will see the brand launch two new hydrogen fuel cell powertrains in 2030, as well as broaden hydrogen fuel cell power in all areas of the market that the Hyundai group operates in – this includes shipping and logistics, which will be served by new autonomous e-Bogies.

Fastest electric automobiles in the world

For the Vision FK Hyundai has partnered with EV performance specialists Rimac Automobili (of which it owns a 12 per cent stake); the automobile marries a Hyundai-designed and built hydrogen fuel cell stack with a fully electric plug-in powertrain developed in collaboration with Rimac.
A future production model would be the first to use this type of powertrain – and the Vision FK will make production, according to Hyundai’s head of research and development, Albert Biermann.

“The Vision FK is one of our rolling lab projects where we challenge our engineers to drive forward, and the packaging situation of this vehicle, which has a combination of a high-power battery electric system and a fuel cell system is very challenging.
