Does the Hyundai Nexo's high price tag come with the technology and features to back it up?
Hyundai Nexo is priced at a premium in US market at around $60,000. As a result, it competes with luxury electric vehicles and higher end traditional SUVs. Hyundai claims its justification of the Nexo's price point on its advanced fuel cell technology, autonomous driving features and premium interior. But the debates have arisen about whether the vehicle provides enough value to justify its cost, considering the lack of hydrogen infrastructure. Some say the technology is so unique and the environmental benefits so good that it's worth the investment, while others say similarly priced battery electric vehicles provide a better overall value and practicality. We also talk about how government incentives for hydrogen vehicles stack up against battery electric cars and if the Nexo is more financially appealing as a result.
It's way overpriced for what you get, no way. For less you can get a Tesla Model Y with better tech and charging options.
I think it's justified. It is cutting edge fuel cell technology and a view into the future of transportation … you are paying for.
It's expensive, but it's not if you factor in the government incentives.
Unless you're really committed to hydrogen technology it's hard to justify. A battery EV is a better value for most people.
It's cool tech, but at that price point, the limited fueling options make it a tough sell.
If you live in an area where hydrogen infrastructure is good, it could be worth it. It refuels quick and is a big plus.
I consider it an investment in future technology. The early adopters always pay a premium.
It’s expensive, but you get the same build quality and features as with luxury brands. That's not all about the fuel cell.
