One Of The Five Large Buses Sold In Korea This Year Is Hydrogen-Powered
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article in Pulse.
These are the first three paragraphs.
Nearly one in five large buses sold in South Korea in 2025 to date has been a hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV). In response, Hyundai Motor Co. is increasingly focusing on hydrogen-powered commercial transport amid sluggish demand for hydrogen-powered passenger cars.
According to data from the Korea Automobile & Mobility Association (KAMA) and Hyundai Motor, 380 hydrogen-powered buses were sold in the first five months of 2025, out of 1,923 large buses sold overall. The market share stood at 19.8 percent, indicating a significant increase from 6 percent in 2023 and 14.4 percent the previous year.
Analysts say hydrogen power is better suited for commercial vehicles than for passenger cars. While electric vehicles work well for lighter, smaller vehicles, hydrogen-powered systems offer key advantages for larger vehicles, including longer range, shorter refueling times, and greater payload capacity.
Korea and Germany certainly have more hydrogen-powered buses than the UK.
But then we are rather lagging behind other countries in the use of hydrogen. I am certainly writing fewer hydrogen stories since the change of government.
The Hindenberg has done a wonderful job, in convincing politicians that hydrogen is dangerous.
