Hyundai Nexo
Despite not selling a single unit in all of 2022, Hyundai continues to offer the hydrogen-powered Nexo in Canada. This fuel-cell electric vehicle in the shape of a compact crossover can travel up to 612 km with a full tank of hydrogen. The one major problem is that refueling stations are extremely few and far between. Sure, the Nexo is adequately equipped and handles well, but at such a high price, it doesn’t stand a chance.
