If the world has electric cars, there must be hydrogen-powered cars. After rumors for a while, Hyundai, a famous Korean automotive company, said that it would produce hydrogen-powered cars, which has been the focus of attention ever since. Today, the green light has been given for the production of the Hyundai N74 hydrogen-powered car.

Preliminary estimates reveal that this car will be developed from the original concept released last year as a 2-seater supercar with gull-wing doors. The highlight of this model is that it will be a plug-in hybrid, able to charge with electricity or refuel with hydrogen. Inside, a hydrogen fuel cell and a 70-kilowatt (kW) battery are installed, giving more than 775 hp and being able to accelerate to 100 kilometers per hour in 3 seconds.

Other details have not been officially announced, except for the original information about the N Vision 74 prototype, which revealed that the car would have a top speed of 250 kilometers per hour and a driving range of approximately 600 kilometers, which may change in the N74 model.

As for production and sales, initially there will be a limited number of 200 units, with a starting price of approximately 365,000 US dollars per unit.
