The Future Battlefield Powered by Kia Special Vehicle Hydrogen Solution
Leveraging Hyundai Motor Group’s leadership in hydrogen mobility, Kia Special Vehicle Division is driving the development of advanced military hydrogen solutions. From production and power conversion to field deployment, we are building a full-spectrum military hydrogen ecosystem to support next-generation operational readiness.
-
Hydrogen production
On-site or mobile hydrogen generation systems for operational independence.
-
Hydrogen transport
Secure and scalable logistics for delivering hydrogen to remote or tactical zones.
-
Hydrogen refueling
Rapid-deployment refueling infrastructure optimized for field conditions.
-
Hydrogen vehicle operation
Silent, efficient, and low-signature vehicle systems for mission-ready mobility.
Kia Special Vehicle Division is developing hydrogen-powered military vehicles in line with the armed forces’ shift from internal combustion engines
to eco-friendly powertrains.The hydrogen ATV, powered by fuel cells, produces lower heat and noise than traditional vehicles, reducing detection
risk while ensuring swift and secure military mobility.
we are developing a Rescue Hydrogen Generator Vehicle by integrating a hydrogen power module into the light tactical vehicle platform. This vehicle
is designed to provide rapid and reliable power supply in emergency situations such as disasters and accidents, as well as in remote or rugged
locations.
