2020 Hyundai Nexo review

1. Impressive range 

While alternative fuel vehicles are improving in leaps and bounds, and the infrastructure is growing, one of the concerns for some drivers remains the topic of range. We all want to get the best possible range — whatever the fuel — and this is where the 2020 Hyundai Nexo shines. This hydrogen fuel cell SUV offers over 350 miles of range from just five minutes of filling up. The top trim, Limited, can travel up to 354 miles before the hydrogen tank needs to be refilled, and the base model, Blue, achieves 380. Hydrogen infrastructure is in its very early days, so this type of range offers real peace of mind to drivers looking to leave internal combustion engine vehicles behind. 

2. An enjoyable experience  

For all the long drives you're able to have thanks to the generous range of the 2020 Hyundai Nexo, it's fortunately also comfortable and spacious. Most adults can fit comfortably in the front or the back seats, and the materials used in the cabin and across the dashboard make for a pleasant in-car experience. There's 30 cu-ft of cargo space in the back — plenty for a heavy shopping trip or stacks of luggage — which extends to 57 cu-ft with the back seats folded. Front seats are reasonably adjustable and the Limited trim comes with an extra-large sunroof, which brings plenty of light into the cabin.  

3. New features for 2020 

The 2020 Hyundai Nexo introduced some new and standardized features for 2020, boosting the already exciting roster. For the base trim, Blue, tinted rear glass has become standard, while automatic wipers have been added to the Limited trim. The main benefit of tinted rear glass is that your car stays cooler during the summer months while also adding privacy. The automatic wipers simply make your life easier, so they add a touch of luxury and peace of mind to the top trim. 

4. Exciting base model 

As base models go, the 2020 Hyundai Nexo Blue has a huge amount to offer. It achieves 161 hp and features heated front seats, keyless entry, and LED headlights as standard. Infotainment-wise, there's a large 12.3-inch screen, Apple CarPlay^® and Android Auto^™ connectivity, and a wireless charging pad. Additionally, the driver aids include adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, forward collision warning, and more.  

5. Ideal for alternative fuel skeptics 

The 2020 Hyundai Nexo is a strong enough vehicle to turn the heads of many who are cynical when it comes to alternative fuel cars. Aside from all of its features and driver aids, the fact that it's an SUV adds a layer of utility that's practical no matter how you intend to use the Nexo. This is a great choice if you're looking for something that fits your eco-conscious lifestyle.
