These efforts are progressing well. In May 2011, Hyundai test-drove its FCEVs in cities such as Stockholm and Oslo. In Denmark, the Hyundai Tucson ix35 FCEVs crossed the country from east to west (about 340 km) on one tank of hydrogen, in cooperation with local hydrogen station operator H2 Logic. Prior to the test drive, Hyundai entered into a partnership with H2 Logic and vehicle distributor Hydrogen Link. In November 2011, Hyundai joined the H2moves Scandinavia project, collaborating in the official opening of the project’s hydrogen station in Oslo. In April this year, Norway’s Zero Emission Resource Organization (ZERO) drove two Hyundai ix-35 FCEVs from Oslo to Monte Carlo, which was accomplished with only five refuelling stops using already-established hydrogen [...]
