The Hyundai Nexo is an oddity on the Canadian market. This is a fully electric SUV that relies on a hydrogen-powered fuel cell system instead of a large battery. Filling the tank takes about five minutes only. Featuring front-wheel drive, the motor generates 161 horsepower and 291 pound-feet of torque. Drivers can expect to travel up to 570 kilometres, though the lack of a refueling infrastructure spoils the Nexo’s business case.
