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.

"At HMGMA, we are committed to creating sustainable transportation solutions," said Oscar Kwon, HMGMA CEO. "Our Hyundai XCIENT hydrogen fuel-cell trucks that support the Metaplant release zero emissions and offer a cleaner alternative to the traditional freight logistics methods used at other manufacturing facilities."

This initiative represents a significant step forward in HMGMA's leadership efforts to both reduce its carbon footprint and actively promote sustainable practices in daily logistics operations. The use of zero-emissions hydrogen fuel cell technology will demonstrate Hyundai Motor Group's ongoing commitment to responsible environmental stewardship.

These Hyundai XCIENT hydrogen fuel-cell Class 8 heavy-duty trucks will transport vehicle parts from HMGMA suppliers across the region to the megas-ite 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.
