Where the Hyperion XP-1 goes, it needs no gas

Hydrogen only, please.

It all started with Gran Turismo. From those early PlayStation days, Sean was drawn to anything with four wheels. Prior to joining the Roadshow team, he was a freelance contributor for Motor Authority, The Car Connection and Green Car Reports. As for what's in the garage, Sean owns a 2016 Chevrolet SS, and yes, it has Holden badges.

At the same time, it also looks like its own machine.

We don't know how much power it has, but the fuel cells feed multiple electric motors to power all four wheels.

Meant as an educational tool first, the XP-1 has grander goals.
