Hyundai Translead says Breadner Trailers, an established Hyundai Translead trailer dealer, will now sell XCIENT fuel cell trucks in Canada.
"Canada is one of the key markets for the global commercialization of Hyundai Motor's hydrogen powered trucks," says Chul Youn Park, senior vice president and head of global commercial vehicle and light commercial vehicle business division at Hyundai Motor Company. "The establishment of a dealership agreement marks a symbolic milestone in accelerating the adoption of hydrogen mobility in the region. Going forward, aligned with Canadian government policies and evolving customer needs, we aim to lead the decarbonization of logistics and transportation across advanced markets."
