Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America (HMGMA), in cooperation with Glovis America, announced it has deployed Hyundai XCIENT heavy-duty hydrogen fuel-cell electric trucks for clean logistics operations. Initially, a total of 21 XCIENT trucks will be in operation.
These Hyundai XCIENT hydrogen fuel-cell Class 8 heavy-duty trucks will transport vehicle parts from HMGMA suppliers across the region to the Megasite on a daily basis. During the initial rollout, XCIENT trucks will transport parts between suppliers and the on-site Consolidation Center and later these logistics will expand to a broader network of suppliers. The 21 XCIENT vehicles will represent more than one-third of the Glovis America truck fleet at HMGMA.
Earlier this year at CES, Hyundai Motor Group announced HTWO, its new hydrogen value chain business brand. HTWO encompasses the Group’s businesses and affiliates, enabling each stage of the entire hydrogen value chain, from production and storage to transportation and utilization. HTWO represents ‘Hydrogen’ and ‘Humanity,’ the two main pillars of Hyundai’s hydrogen business.
