Recently we asked you whether you"d rather have a new Mercedes-AMG GT R Pro, or a used Ferrari 430 Scuderia, given both can be had for around the same money. Of course those two are philosophically pretty similar - hardcore, track-ready versions of existing sports/supercars. Time then, for something a bit different. Something you quite possibly won"t have to think so hard about Hyundai has announced its hydrogen-powered Nexo would cost 65,995. Sounds like a lot, but being an early adopter is never cheap, and the Nexo is a proper thing. A bespoke SUV designed from the ground up as a fuel-cell vehicle. Hyundai claims a range of 414 miles, and a refuel time of just five minutes. Assuming the nearest of Britain"s few hydrogen filling stations isn"t an hour"s drive from your house, obviously.
