# Hyundai maintains its hydrogen strategy and presents a fuel cell

> Hyundai unveiled a hydrogen fuel cell system for commercial vehicles at the World Hydrogen Expo 2026 and reaffirmed its hydrogen commercialization strategy. The group aims to shift from automaker to energy supplier, an approach praised by the Hydrogen Council as a South Korean model for technology and supply chain. In China, Hyundai intends to strengthen its investments in Canton and develop the entire hydrogen value chain, while in Brazil it defends the technology despite high prices and a lack of stations holding back sales. The report thus shows maintained industrial investments in South Korea and China, but still difficult market conditions in Brazil.
