Hydrogen Meets Electric: Spotting a Hyundai XCIENT Fuel Cell Truck Hauling Rivian R1Ts on Highway 101

Silicon Valley has always been ground zero for the future of technology. But every once in a while you see something on the road that perfectly captures where transportation is heading. That moment happened recently on Highway 101. Cruising down the freeway, traffic moving at its usual Silicon Valley pace, something unusual came into view ahead: a car hauler loaded with several brand-new Rivian R1Ts. At first glance that’s not too unusual in the Bay Area—Rivian’s headquarters is just down the road in Palo Alto, and seeing their electric trucks around town has become fairly common.
