Hyundai Intrado Fuel Cell Concept: Live Photos From Geneva

High Gear Media Network Feed

Hyundai's Intrado concept--a fuel cell crossover unveiled at Geneva--is the first Hyundai to be designed under the watchful eye of Peter Schreyer, and it really shows.

Schreyer was previously head of design at Kia, and transformed the maker's lineup.

On the motor show stand, the Intrado really works. There's a coherence to the design we've not seen from Hyundai's other products, and if the Intrado begets a production version, you'd not hear us complaining.

The Intrado has been designed, in Hyundai's words, as a vision of how to meet future mobility needs.

To that end it's powered by a fuel cell, battery and electric motor setup, fuel cells being a particular Hyundai speciality.

Under the rear passenger floor--illustrated in our photos above--you'll find two high-pressure hydrogen storage tanks, each capable of storing the gas at 700 bar. Together, they can hold 100 liters of hydrogen. Combined with a battery pack, the Intrado can cover up to 600 kilometers between fills.

The battery pack has a 36 kW output, though Hyundai hasn't revealed how powerful the electric motor itself is--so there's little clue to the Intrado's performance.
