Land Speed Record of Hyundai Tucson Fuel Cell

Hyundai has set a land speed record thankfully to its latest Tucson, powered by hydrogen fuel-cell.

The model reached a top speed of 94.6 mph. The record was set at the Soggy Dry Lake Bed (California). The Tucson Fuel Cell was acknowledged to put the top speed record. The automaker did not stress if it beat a previous achievement, but probably it has never happened.

The producer names their model the 1st mass-produced fuel cell car. Customers from Southern California ordered almost 100 of the vehicles. The model under consideration rides 265 miles on a tank. You will need just several minutes to refuel this vehicle.

It is not a secret that Southern California has the biggest amount of hydrogen filling stations. That is why the most fuel cell models are obtained by the inhabitants of Southern California.
